Republican responses poured in Sunday after President Joe Biden’s campaign announced that he would no longer seek reelection, including from the party’s standard-bearer, former President Donald Trump.
Biden’s announcement came after weeks of mounting pressure on Biden to leave the race following his devastating debate performance against former President Donald Trump last month. A growing number of Democrats and their supporters and donors, including Hollywood elitists, began jumping on the bandwagon, demanding he step down following a series of post-debate polls showing support for him taking across the country, especially in must-win battleground states.
Trump also responded on his Truth Social page.
“Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve – And never was! He only attained the position of President by lies, Fake News, and not leaving his Basement. All those around him, including his Doctor and the Media, knew that he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t – And now, look what he’s done to our Country, with millions of people coming across our Border, totally unchecked and unvetted, many from prisons, mental institutions, and record numbers of terrorists. We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” he wrote.
