Biden Goes After Trump’s Felon Status 

June 3, 2024 · 11:33 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“President Biden, prodded by Democrats to confront former President Donald Trump head-on about Mr. Trump’s criminal conviction in his New York hush-money case, heeded those calls on Monday night during a big-dollar fund-raiser in Connecticut for his re-election campaign and for the party,” the New York Times reports.

“Mr. Biden railed against his rival at a reception in Greenwich, telling a group of supporters who included Connecticut’s governor and its two sitting U.S. senators that the campaign had entered ‘unchartered territory’ when a jury on Thursday found Mr. Trump guilty on all 34 felony counts that he had been facing.”

“He said Mr. Trump had cemented the distinction of being the first former president and convicted felon to seek the Oval Office.”

Associated Press: Biden lays into Trump over convictions and says he now poses a greater threat than in 2016.
