'Election interference': Biden campaign slammed for saying Trump is 'lying about money he doesn't have'
PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: In a dramatic turn of events on Monday, March 25, former President Donald Trump's legal woes took center stage as his reelection campaign faced a barrage of criticism and scrutiny.
Trump's claims of financial strength clashed with the backdrop of mounting legal challenges, prompting a scathing rebuke from the Biden camp.
Earlier in the day, a New York appeals court granted Trump a temporary reprieve by halting the enforcement of a staggering $464 million judgment against him, the Trump Organization, and key executives. This respite, however, hinged on the condition of posting a $175 million bond within a tight ten-day window.
Simultaneously, a New York judge dealt a blow to Trump's legal maneuverings by refusing to delay his upcoming hush money trial slated for April 15. This trial is pivotal as the first of four criminal cases against the former president.
Biden Campaign's Scathing Rebuke
Responding to these developments, James Singer, a spokesperson for President Biden's reelection campaign, launched a scathing attack on Trump, branding him as "weak and desperate."
“Donald Trump is weak and desperate – both as a man and a candidate for president,” Singer said in a statement.
“He spent the weekend golfing, the morning comparing himself to Jesus, and the afternoon lying about having money he definitely doesn’t have. His campaign can’t raise money, he is uninterested in campaigning outside his country club, and every time he opens his mouth, he pushes moderate and suburban voters away with his dangerous agenda,” Singer said.
“America deserves better than a feeble, confused, and tired Donald Trump," the spokesperson added.
Despite mounting pressure, Trump remained defiant, suggesting that a conviction in the hush money case could paradoxically bolster his popularity. Dismissing concerns about political fallout, he attributed his legal entanglements to a purported vendetta orchestrated by the Biden administration.
“Well, it could also make me more popular because the people know it’s a scam,” Trump said when asked if he was concerned about the political ramifications of a potential conviction.
“It’s a Biden trial. There is no trial. There’s a Biden trial,” Trump added, insisting Biden was responsible for his myriad legal problems.
“It’s ironic that Christ walked through His greatest persecution the very week they are trying to steal your property from you," Trump told his supporters earlier on Monday as he quoted the Bible.
Social Media Reactions
Trump's steadfast supporters rallied behind him on social media, dismissing allegations as politically motivated and decrying what they perceive as election interference.
"I'm sure that's the plan keep throwing bogus charges at him," one posted on X.
"Basically confirming this is election interference," another commented.
"Bashing him for having $175 million… that’s funny," someone else added.
"China Joe's jealous of Trump. The only big money Joe gets is what Crackhead Hunter can weasel out of Ukraine and China," another chimed in.
