'An alternate reality': Biden campaign rips RNC speaker for refering to coronavirus in past tense as thousands die weekly
The campaign of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden condemned the second night of the Republican National Convention for presenting an "alternate reality" to Americans that failed to recognise the ongoing severity of the coronavirus pandemic.Mr Biden's deputy campaign manager and communications director, Kate Bedingfield, issued a long rebuke of the evening's proceedings, honing in on White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow's speech describing the Covid-19 crisis in the past tense despite the fact health officials continue to report tens of thousands of new cases per day and thousands of deaths per week.
