Internet shreds Joe Biden as his campaign quickly fundraises off Trump's immunity ruling
WASHINGTON, DC: Selina Wang, Senior White House Correspondent for ABC News, reported on Monday, July 1, regarding the Biden 2024 campaign's reaction to the Supreme Court's ruling in Donald Trump's immunity case, according to Mediaite.
Wang noted that while the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Trump, granting immunity to all past and future presidents for their official actions in office, the Biden campaign still has reasons to celebrate.
Joe Biden's campaign fundraises after Trump's immunity ruling
Wang reported, "For the Biden campaign, this case underscores the core theme of President Biden’s reelection. The stakes of this, their message that Trump is a threat to democracy, somebody who is obsessed with power. And in a statement that they just sent over, they said, look, today’s ruling does not change the facts."

She added, "So let’s be very clear about what happened on January 6th. Donald Trump snapped after he lost the 2020 election and encouraged a mob to overthrow the results of a free and fair election. Trump is already running for president as a convicted felon."
She further stated, "Now, the campaign has also been warning that if Trump gets a second term, there will only be darker days ahead, that he will continue to try and shield himself from prosecution with. This campaign has been saying now for quite some time that Trump wants the power of a king or a monarch to have absolute power without accountability. So the Supreme Court decision today does not change their messaging on those points."
After the ruling, the Biden campaign issued a statement stating, "Since January 6, Trump has become increasingly erratic. He has vowed to become a dictator 'on day one,' advocated for the termination of our Constitution to regain power, and threatened a 'bloodbath' if he loses. The American people have already rejected Donald Trump's self-centered pursuit of power once – Joe Biden will ensure they reject it definitively in November."
Furthermore, in response to the decision, the Biden campaign began soliciting donations, sending out a mailer on Monday afternoon with the subject line: "The Supreme Court Just Granted Trump's Wish."
