PResident Donald Trump has been in office for more than three months, but he still talks about his predecessor. Whether it is to blame or make Aspersions, Trump cannot stop talking about former President Joe Biden. In recent weeks, he has mentioned Biden when he asked him questions on the stock market, the war in Gaza, which he did to end the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and his decision to send Venezuelan men to a prison in El Salvador.
On Friday, Kristen Welker of NBC asked Trump when he would assume responsibility for the performance of the American economy. “I think the good parts are the Trump economy and the bad parts are Biden's economy,” said Trump. It was one of the about 20 mentions of “Biden” Trump made in the interview, according to the transcription. The previous week, Trump mentioned Biden a dozen times in an interview with Time.
During the first 100 days of Trump's White House, “Biden” was the fifth most frequently used word, according to a temporal analysis of transcriptions of its public remarks and those of key spokespersons. The surname of the former president was pronounced more than “border” and a little less than the word “deal”. The most frequently used word was “brilliant”, followed by “American” and “price”. To find the count, the time used an AI algorithm to analyze 92 events where Trump made remarks on the camera as well as press points that his senior officials have kept in the White House.
Andrew Bates, the former assistant press secretary of the White House of Biden, considers the constant blame of his former boss as “counterproductive” for Trump. “The economy was better off when Joe Biden left his duties – Trump actively damaged him, and therefore every time he says that the name of Joe Biden, that makes people remember a time when the economy was better,” said Bates.
However, Trump seems more than happy to continue to blame Biden for bad economic news. After the Commerce Department published data last week showing that the gross domestic product has decreased slightly in the first quarter, Trump said “This is Biden”, then clearly indicated that a similar response could arrive in July. “You could even say that the next quarter is sort of Biden.”
Surveys suggest that the public is likely to link economic problems to come to the Trump trade war. Falsification Surveys published at the end of April have revealed that 70% of Americans think that Trump's new prices will cost more in the United States than they generate in the short term. And 89% of American adults think that prices will likely lead to higher prices.
In recent weeks, Biden has started to go under the spotlight. In mid-April, he delivered a speech in which he criticized Trump's random layoffs and cost reductions in the federal government, saying that Trump's administration “shoots first and aims later” and described Trump's first months in office as being full of “damage” and “destruction” for programs and elderly. Thursday, Biden and the former First Lady Jill Biden will join the ABC hosts The view.
Biden's return to the national scene comes before the release of several books on how his assistants attacked questions about his mental acuity during his mandate. At the end of May, Jake Tapper from CNN and AxiosAlex Thompson plans to publish “Original Sin: President Biden of the decline, his concealment and his disastrous choice to run again”. Wall Street Newspaper Josh Dawsey, New York Times'Tyler Pager and the Washington JobIsaac Arnsdorf has teamed up with the writing of “2024: how Trump took over the White House and the lost democrats in America”, which is scheduled for early July.
