President Joe Biden recently launched attacks on President Donald Trump after his rival’s conviction on 34 felony charges last week and called the former president “unhinged” and engaged in an “all-out assault” on the justice system via Deadline.
It has been noted that the president’s remarks came at a Greenwich, CT fund-raising reception at the home of Richard Plepler, the former CEO of HBO.
Biden addressed those who gathered that the presidential campaign entered “uncharted territory” last week and said, “For the first time in American history, a former president that is a convicted felon is now seeking the office of the presidency.”
“But as disturbing as that is, more damaging is the all-out assault Donald Trump is making on the American system of justice.”
He gave his brief remarks about the conviction of Trump on Friday and Biden called it “reckless” and “dangerous” for Trump to call the judicial process rigged, which has been his common refrain as well as that of a number of his allies.
It is just over three weeks until Biden and Trump are scheduled to meet in Atlanta for their first debate of the cycle, the president also said that “something snapped in this guy for real” after his loss in the 2020 election. “It’s literally driving him crazy,” Biden said.
“This guy does not deserve to be president whether or not I’m running,” Biden said.
It seems that there was some debate among Democrats about how to approach Trump’s conviction. Both Biden’s campaign and the president have become more vocal about it. The former president claims that Biden orchestrated the prosecution, even though it was initiated in the state of New York and not by the federal government.
