U.S President Joe Biden has used a prime-time address to the nation to call out Trump-led extremism, which he says is threatening the foundations of the Republic. 

The attempt by Biden to marginalise Trump and his supporters is a pivot for the U.S leader, who has previously spoken passionately of his desire to bring back a sense of national unity.

Analysts say the new approach is all about reframing upcoming mid-term elections as a battle for the nation's soul.
