Biden Runs Against Man Who Thinks He’s President

January 27, 2024 · 5:29 pm ET · Leave a Comment

New York Times: “He promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act. He demanded states deploy the National Guard to the U.S.-Mexico border. He warned congressional Republicans to hold out for a perfect deal on immigration — or else.”

“Former President Donald Trump has not even clinched the Republican presidential nomination, but he has wasted no time issuing directives as if he were making them from the Oval Office instead of between appearances in a New York courtroom.”

“And now, President Biden has been forced to ponder a campaign question that no president has ever had to consider: How do you run against a man who has already had the job, never conceded his election loss and is already acting like he has the job again?”

Washington Post: On Trump-Biden rematch, many senators say bring it on.
