Fiery late-night tirade on Truth Social, former President Donald Trump launched a scathing attack on President Joe Biden, triggering a flurry of reactions across the political spectrum.
Trump’s onslaught began sharply at 10:59 PM on Monday, July 1st, with a blunt declaration: “Crooked Joe Biden is the worst president in the history of the United States, by far!”
Continuing his assault just 18 minutes later at 11:17 PM, Trump accused Biden of a range of offenses, alleging, “Crooked Joe Biden spied on my campaign, took money from foreign governments, made some of the worst policy and military decisions in USA history, weaponized injustice, and is our worst president ever. He is killing our country, a total loser!!! DJT”
Trump didn’t hold back in his final post of the night at 11:46 PM, taking a swipe at Biden’s debate performance: “Biden’s Debate performance was rated poor, with an arrow pointing left. That means it was Less than Poor. Mine was rated, ‘the best in the history of Presidential Debates.’ In other words, there is a BIG GAP for Crooked Joe to make up, and with his mind and memory completely shot, and marbles in his mouth, it’s not going to happen!”
These statements mark another instance of Trump’s unfiltered social media style, known for its directness and polarizing effect.
The timing of Trump’s outburst follows a widely criticized debate where Biden faced scrutiny for struggling to maintain coherence, raising concerns about his ability to lead effectively.
Trump’s remarks not only underscored his critique of Biden’s performance but also aimed to bolster doubts about Biden’s fitness for office, a sentiment shared among his supporters.
The former president’s emphasis on personal attacks rather than policy discussions aligns with his broader strategy to energize his base ahead of the upcoming election.
While Trump’s supporters applaud his candidness, critics argue that such rhetoric further exacerbates political divisions and promotes misinformation.
As Trump continues to leverage late-night social media to shape public opinion, these provocative messages are likely to intensify in the lead-up to November, showcasing his distinctive approach to political communication.
