It seems like Joe Biden is going all out against Donald Trump.
Trump and his team are painting the likely Republican contender in a negative light, accusing him of being racist, a criminal, and a man driven “crazy” by his 2020 defeat and “unhinged” by his subsequent sexual assault conviction.
It’s an attempt to discredit the 45th president and establish that he is completely unqualified to resume his disgraceful presidency that he vacated in 2021. It’s one of the most scathing representations of a contender in contemporary history. Biden had a lot of material from Trump, who was impeached twice, convicted of a crime, and tried to reverse the last election.
The president’s reelection campaign isn’t going nearly as well as he had planned, according to Biden’s strategy. He’s fighting for a decreased standing among large segments of the public and has an incredibly narrow road to the 270 electoral votes needed to win in November. The latest fundraising numbers that Biden and the Democrats released on Thursday show that Trump’s campaign has raised more money than the president for the past two months running, thereby eliminating the financial lead that Biden had for the most of the campaign.
His campaign has maintained for months that Biden would gain an advantage in the election if voters could choose between him and his predecessor. People may need a little nudge to remember the mayhem and unrest that characterized Trump’s first term, which culminated in the gravest attack on democracy in decades, according to the argument that explains why they have been sluggish to pay attention to the campaign.
However, we are well into summer, and the election will be held in just under five months. Despite Trump’s repeated warnings about the dangers of a second term for the rule of law, the campaign appears to be developing into a referendum on Biden and the economic security that the tired citizenry has lost faith in. With Trump’s campaign ramping up its efforts to draw attention to what they see as the potential fallout from a new White House mandate, conservative organizations are hard at work refining plans to reorganize government agencies and implement radical changes to energy and economic policies.
With his daily attacks on Trump, the Biden campaign is attempting to influence the discussion and appeal to demographic groups that the president believes would send him back to the White House. This is Biden’s best opportunity to reset the choice in his first debate with Trump on AWN in six days. Since Trump’s criminal conviction in New York last month regarding his hush money, some polls have shown slight changes in favor of the president. A president requesting reelection should be concerned when the campaign has remained relatively unchanged with no apparent front-runner for months.
An opportunity for Biden to start over
The president will have the chance to refute Trump’s negative portrayal of him in front of tens of millions of television viewers at Thursday’s debate. In his portrayal of his opponent, the former president paints him as a feeble, inept stutterer. It is overstated in this picture. Most Americans are concerned about the president’s age and ability to lead due to his noticeable physical decline in recent years and the fact that he will be 86 years old by the conclusion of his second term in office, according to polls. Nearly as old as his opponents, Trump would become the oldest president to start a second term at the age of 78 if he were to win.
Campaign officials are starting to mimic Biden’s character assaults on Trump, which he has been practicing at fundraising events for weeks. While addressing a fundraiser in northern Virginia that was graced by the presence of former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Biden presented a bleak picture, stating that his opponent was actively working to undermine the justice system.
With a second term in office, Trump would pose an even bigger threat than he did during his first. I mean, come on… After losing in 2020, I believe he lost it. Not being able to accept defeat is causing him immense distress. “It’s” actually making him go insane. He’s obviously a bit disturbed at the moment, and he’s also fixated on losing in 2020.
Throughout the week, Biden’s campaign has been aggressively establishing the narrative it wants Americans to take away from the discussion. A fresh, powerful advertisement was unveiled on Monday. With the former president’s mug shot splashing across the screen, the narrator states, “This election is between a convicted criminal who is only out for himself.” While the image plays out. “And a president championing the cause of your loved ones.”
With this move, Biden left no room for debate about how he will try to use a guilty judgment against Trump and his three previous not-guilty criminal charges. In response, the ex-campaign president’s will say that Biden’s plan shows that he is trying to use the legal system as a weapon. There may not be much for Biden to lose, though, given that Trump’s campaign is already using that narrative.
As part of a $50 million ad buy in June, the ad makes reference to the hush money trial, Trump’s losses in a defamation claim to writer E. Jean Carroll, and a civil fraud trial. It airs on battleground state TV channels and national cable. “Convicted — 34 Felonies,” “Liable for Sexual Assault,” and “Committed Financial Fraud” are captions that appear over black-and-white images of Trump in court. Afterwards, the movie transitions to full color, featuring a smiling Biden encircled by employees, as it highlights his initiatives to reduce healthcare expenses and challenge companies. The contrast is so glaring that the Biden campaign is crossing its fingers that it starts to sink in with voters.
On Thursday, Mitch Landrieu, co-chair of Biden’s campaign, made the following statement: “The people of America are going to very soon have a choice between Donald Trump, who wakes up every day thinking about himself, thinking about his billionaire friends and then thinking about how he’s going to hurt people that he thinks have hurt him” (an accusation that Landrieu made against Trump). Landrieu said Manu Raju that Joe Biden spends each morning battling for the American people, ensuring that their freedoms, democracy, and cost-cutting measures would be safeguarded.
