Donald Trump—and all future presidents—were given a huge win by the Supreme Court. The highest court ruled that presidents have immunity from official actions. While this has been the expectation for years, we now have it in writing.
This means, among other things, that Democrats’ ability to prosecute Trump was significantly limited.
It is yet another blow against Biden, who has been watching his reelection chances crater. Democrats are hounding him to step down. Polling shows that he is losing to Trump in battleground states. Now, his campaign will be spending millions to attack the highest court in the land and fearmonger voters.
From Axios:
The Biden campaign is launching a seven-figure ad blitz in battleground states on Wednesday slamming the U.S. Supreme Court’s immunity decision and warning of former President Trump’s threat to be a “dictator.” …The ad will be part of a seven-figure buy focused on all the major battleground areas, according to a Biden campaign official…
It’s a major investment at a time when internal polling and top Democrats are raising alarm bells after Biden’s flailing debate performance.
It seems the Biden camp doesn’t have any new ideas for winning the election. Instead of promising to help the country—or owning up to his many mistakes in his first term—he is spreading misinformation over the recent SCOTUS ruling. Biden will be spending millions on ads to scare voters away from Trump.
He is claiming that the ruling will make Trump a “dictator.” The ad blatantly distorts the Supreme Court ruling. Anyone in D.C. knew that presidents always enjoyed immunity while in office. It was only in the last few years that Democrats challenged that with their egregious trials against Trump.
But Biden is now twisting the facts to make it sound like the Supreme Court has turned Trump into a “king.” What Biden is conveniently leaving out is that this ruling is good for him too, as Republicans planned to prosecute him for his actions on the border. And future presidents won’t fear making tough decisions over the possibility of prosecution after they leave office.
Biden leaves all that important context out to scare uninformed voters. Yet he crossed a line by attacking the third branch of the federal government, something that would have been unthinkable in previous years. Biden is trampling over the Constitution’s separation of powers to save his failing campaign.
Many believe Biden’s family is forcing him to stay in the race for their own selfish reasons. Biden appears to be suffering from severe cognitive decline. To keep him campaigning is cruel and criminal to many Americans.
Key Takeaways:
- The Biden campaign is launching a seven-figure ad blitz in battleground states, criticizing the Supreme Court’s immunity decision.
- Biden will falsely claim the ruling will make Trump a dictator when reelected.
- This ad buy comes at a time of concern over Biden’s debate performance and lack of new campaign ideas.
- Biden’s ad distorts the Supreme Court ruling, omits important context, and attacks the separation of powers, which is seen as desperate and unethical.
