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.”
Wasn't there also something that Obama almost exclusively golfed at Andrews Base, a secure location near D.C. while the other guy had to go to his own club where the Secret Service had to book rooms in Trumps own hotel?
Unlike Trump I think our law and order has enough crime already. Could it really handle more? It's already judge Dredd out there if you live in the wrong area.
Time to take off the kid gloves. Part of the problem is that the Democrats have never really fought hard against the far right, the way they, for instance, fight against any progressive candidate that might rock the boat. They'd rather hand the country to the fascists than upset their sponsors.

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.

Don’t expect people who work 40 hours a week with kids to go out and try and find that. If he’s not actively campaigning on that and just wants to call trump funny names don’t whine and bitch when trump wins.
the only valid both sides is they are both way too old for the job. 1 old guy will give you the chance to vote for someone else in 4 years, the other will not. 1 guy has a record, tho spotty, looking out for your middle class, the other ...
The comment seems more intended to push voters away from Biden and toward an RFK option than convincing anyone to vote for Trump. It's stupid and easy to attack back, but we also need to be careful about what the strategy is.
It's not both-sides to say that Genocide Joe sucks ass. Yes, Trump is worse. But Biden is still awful. I don't say that in some effort to appease the right or sound somehow neutral, I say it because it's true.
Yeah, but I'm in of the more than 50% of states Biden has zero chance of winning.
The only time my state has went D in recent history was when a young progressive outsider won the Dem primary. And in the 16 years since the DNC has taken a lot of steps to ensure that never happens again.
Most recently taking NH's delegates away.
If the DNC wants to win my state, they're going to have to stop running neoliberals, regardless of how I personally vote.
But the DNC doesn't want to win if it means a progressive candidate.
So you can blame one random voter for having morals, or you can blame the DNC for not giving voters what they want for easy wins.
Look, let's get this out of the way. I'm not a Democrat. Didn't vote for Biden or Trump at any point. Yet comparing them one is clearly capable and one is not. How does that make them equal? That's delusional thinking.
Do I want a better candidate than either of them? Sure, but it's not going to happen this election cycle. And yes it's fucked these are the only choices we get.
Yet which one is really likely to fuck us over? The answer to that isn't Biden. Not by a longshot.
The problem with this is that we have history with both of them, and we can see what they did. I am not going to vote for either of them, but biden has been objectively an incompetent president, probably the worst president in the modern era outside of Bush.
How do you have so much time to spend on this website trying to convince people not to vote? How does someone so passionately stand for absolutely nothing? I've seen these same posts from you over and over and over again, yet you never actually have anything to say besides 'both sides bad, don't vote.'
If you have a better option, I'd love to hear it. But if not, maybe shut the fuck up and quit turfing for Trump.
Maybe I'm just old enough to realize the last 30 years of DNC strategy has been completely devoid of logic, and just results in the Dem party getting more and more conservative every cycle.
Maybe I've realized that as long as progressives vote for the lesser of two evils, the DNC will only ever compromise for "moderates" who wants the party to be more conservative.
I've spent 20 years voting D for president, only once did I get to vote for someone I liked at the time.
Maybe nows the time to do the only thing the DNC cares about. Loudly refuse to vote for them until they give me what I want. Because that works with the DNC, they're constantly saying they need to be more conservative to steal votes from Republicans, and that they don't have to ever move left because there's no better option.
Because after 20 years, "voting blue no matter who" has only lead to a slow march of elderly conservative candidates who won't push for the party platform even when they have the House and Senate.
I used to say "the primary is the real election" but that's not true anymore, the DNC just doesn't give a fuck about the democratic base anymore.
What's your grand plan? Keep doing what we've been doing for decades and hope the result is magically different?
Yeah totally agree. Biden is the least bad as an outsider, but he's still a shit candidate and the fact the Democrats chose him shows how weak and poorly run they are as a party.
Biden is the least bad option in a 2 man race but fundamentally US democracy is broken and rotten to its core.
The fact polls show it neck and neck at this stage, given trumps legal woes and his attempt to overthrow the last election result, bodes very badly.
