The president has been going after his presumptive 2024 opponent with a little more venom than usual

Joe Biden is taking it to Donald Trump.

The president’s campaign responded to Trump’s wild press conference in New York on Monday by slamming the former president as “weak and desperate — both as a man and a candidate for President.”

“He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn’t have,” the statement read, adding that “America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump.”

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    “He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn’t have,” the statement read, adding that “America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump.”

    Trump spoke to the media in New York amid a very busy day for the former president’s legal docket.

    His comments came after a hearing in which Judge Juan Merchan rejected Trump’s bid to delay his criminal hush-money trial, setting it for April 15.

    Trump was livid at the ruling, accusing Merchan of participating in a Democratic conspiracy to keep him from reclaiming the White House.

    Trump has been whining incessantly about the civil fraud case on Truth Social, and ahead of the appeals court’s ruling, shared a message he said he received Monday morning comparing his plight to the persecution of Jesus Christ.

    He made a few gaffes as he ranted, confusing the election and his trial and promising to “bring crime back to law and order.” Trump also said he didn’t see much of a problem with having foreign governments help him pay for his bond despite his candidacy for president.
