Biden Calls Trump a 'Convicted Felon' and 'Unhinged' at Campaign Event

During a campaign event in Greenwich, Connecticut, on Monday, President Joe Biden made some strong remarks regarding former President Donald Trump. Biden referred to Trump as a "convicted felon" and accused him of "snapping" after the 2020 election.

Biden pointed out that it was the first time in American history that a former president, being a convicted felon, was seeking the office of the presidency. He also expressed concern about the assault that Trump is allegedly making on the American justice system. According to Biden, something had "snapped" in Trump after the 2020 election, driving him "crazy."

Trump's Legal Issues

Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records in his New York hush money trial. Biden addressed Trump's conviction and criticized the attacks made by Trump and his allies on the justice system. He labeled such behavior as reckless, dangerous, and irresponsible.

Biden's Stance

Biden's campaign had previously explored the possibility of taking a more aggressive position on Trump's legal issues, including referring to him as a "convicted felon." However, during the trial, the Biden campaign had been cautious about directly commenting on the proceedings to avoid playing into Trump campaign criticism that the case amounted to election interference by the Biden administration.

Donald Trump, on the other hand, has continuously criticized the verdict and the legal proceedings, calling the trial a "scam" and alleging that it was orchestrated by Biden and his people. Trump has ramped up his attacks on the judicial system as he nears key dates in his criminal and civil cases.

It is notable that Trump still faces criminal charges in three other cases, including the Georgia election interference case, the Florida documents case, and the federal election interference case. He is also appealing the results of his civil trials.
