"I will make America great again by overcoming the disasters created by Biden" — President Donald Trump

"I will make America great again by overcoming the disasters created by Biden" — President Donald Trump
Washington, April 23, 2025:

According to a CBS News report, in the first 100 days of his new term, U.S. President Donald Trump has mentioned his former political rival Joe Biden at least 580 times — showing that the wave of political attacks hasn’t stopped even after the campaign ended.

From day one, Trump has turned Biden into a kind of political “boogeyman,” despite the fact that Biden has already withdrawn from the 2024 presidential race and retired from active politics.

Trump's excuse: “Cleaning up Biden’s destruction”
White House spokesperson Liz Huston said, “President Trump has spent his first three months addressing the disasters created by Biden and making America great again.” She claimed that the border is now secure, inflation is coming down, jobs are increasing, and “common sense” has returned.

Instead of looking forward, all eyes still on Biden
Back in 2017, Trump regularly attacked Hillary Clinton. Continuing in that vein, he now seems to see Biden as his most convenient opponent — using Biden’s failures to reinforce his own position.

White House joke: “A rabbit had to guide Biden”
At a recent Easter event with children, Trump recalled a 2022 incident and quipped, “A rabbit had to guide Biden on where to go. But no one needs to guide Trump.” The person beside him in a bunny costume nodded in agreement.

Biden vs. Trump: A one-sided war of words
The article states that Trump has repeatedly labeled Biden as “weak,” “incompetent,” “pitiful,” “unfortunate,” and “the worst president in history.” According to Trump, “Biden didn’t even know if he was alive.”

Biden’s response?
In his first 100 days, Biden mentioned Trump only 29 times — and reluctantly at that. At one town hall event, he said, “I’m tired of talking about Trump.”

Biden remains central in Trump administration’s rhetoric
Trump administration Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt has referred to Biden 78 times in 16 briefings. Biden is frequently blamed in cabinet meetings for various issues.

Environmental Protection Secretary Lee Zeldin said, “Biden’s EPA strangled the economy.” Commerce Secretary Jamison Greer stated, “We’re facing the biggest trade deficit in history — Biden left us with this.”

In Trump’s words: “Who did Putin want — Trump or Biden?”
Trump claimed that Putin had such little respect for Biden that he didn’t hesitate to invade Ukraine. Now that Trump is back in power, “Putin wants peace.”

Political reality: Blaming is easy, solving is hard
No matter how loudly Trump blames Biden at the White House, his own tariff policies have created market instability, hurt retirement savings (like 401(k) plans), and reduced public confidence.

Political analyst Whit Ayres noted, “As time goes on, blaming the former president becomes harder — especially when it comes to economic issues.”
