The Democratic National Committee’s 192-page autopsy on the 2024 election loss to Donald Trump, though incomplete, assigns blame to former President Biden’s operation for failing to adequately position Kamala Harris as the party’s standard-bearer. The report details how the Biden team did not conduct surveys to support Harris, leaving her vulnerable to attacks, particularly Trump’s “very effective” anti-trans advertisements. Furthermore, it criticizes both the Biden and Harris campaigns for not sufficiently countering Trump’s momentum and for a lack of negative advertising. The analysis also suggests Democrats should de-emphasize abstract issues and identity politics, focusing instead on the economy, disaster relief, and housing affordability to better connect with voters in “Middle America” and the South.

Donald Trump recently shared an AI-generated image on Truth Social depicting Joe Biden asleep in the Oval Office, surrounded by Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama who appear to be signing documents on his behalf.

As part of a discussion at a small business summit, Donald Trump hinted at serving more than two terms, drawing laughter and some interpretations as a challenge to the 22nd Amendment. Trump, soon to turn 80, also launched into a lengthy defense of his physical and mental fitness, suggesting Joe Biden would not have passed cognitive tests he claims to have aced. This assertion follows a history of Trump boasting about his performance on such tests, famously recounting a memory exercise with the phrase “Person, woman, man, camera, TV.” While Trump’s press team often points to his media availability as a sign of fitness, he exited the event without taking questions. The article also touches upon the discourse surrounding Joe Biden’s age and mental acuity, particularly after a debated performance.

During a press conference intended to provide details on a rescue mission, President Trump deviated to discuss his relationship with Kim Jong Un, mentioning that the North Korean leader had referred to Joe Biden as “mentally re—ded.” Trump repeated the slur, contrasting it with Kim Jong Un’s reported positive remarks about him and the improved situation with North Korea. This incident is part of a pattern of Trump using similar derogatory language towards political opponents, including Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. Earlier that day, Trump also implied Biden’s incapability by suggesting he would use an autopen for signatures at the Easter Egg Roll.

The news that Donald Trump’s economic approval rating has dropped below Joe Biden’s all-time low is, frankly, quite telling. It’s a moment where perceptions, often shaped by a relentless media cycle, seem to be aligning with a more grounded reality. The fact that Trump is now trailing Biden in this crucial metric, especially considering past narratives, suggests a significant shift in how the public views their economic stewardship.
It’s rather striking to consider how Trump’s current economic standing has fallen so far. Many observers point out that a substantial portion of these challenges appear to be self-inflicted, a testament to the consequences of his own actions and policies.… Continue reading
Stickers blaming the current president for high gas prices have reappeared, now featuring President Trump’s image, mirroring tactics used against former President Biden. Gas prices have risen over a dollar per gallon since early February, reaching their highest point since October 2022. Trump has defended the price increase, stating that confronting threats from Iran is a necessary, albeit temporary, sacrifice for global safety and peace, asserting that increased oil prices benefit the United States. Experts suggest that while presidents have limited control over global gas prices, geopolitical actions can influence them.

The Justice Department has closed an investigation into former President Joe Biden’s use of an autopen. This probe, initiated by former “weaponization” czar Ed Martin and concluded under Trump ally Jeanine Pirro, never progressed to a grand jury. The difficulty in identifying a clear criminal statute made prosecution unlikely. This investigation occurred amid calls from Donald Trump for inquiries into Biden and his administration, fueled by claims that autopen signatures concealed cognitive decline.

Biden also criticized Trump for failing to acknowledge victims of violence and injustice.
