President Joe Biden Attends 2 SF Events
Both were campaign events. On tap for Thursday is another campaign event in Los Altos Hills.
SAN FRANCISCO — President Joe Biden attended two events in San Francisco on Wednesday evening in support of his re-election campaign, according to pool media reports.
Biden landed at San Francisco International Airport shortly before 3 p.m. on Air Force One and was greeted by House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi, Mayor London Breed and U.S. Rep. Kevin Mullin, D-San Mateo.
The president then took the Marine One helicopter to Marina Green on the north end of San Francisco for two campaign events, where he talked about his accomplishments and agenda as president, as well as his problems with Republican political opponents, saying "These guys do not believe in basic democratic principles" and "are the party of chaos and division," according to the pool media reports.
