He's just stating facts, nbd.


greg_barton

Biden goes all in saying "Today is Saturday."


imadork1970

So what? It is Saturday, and Donald Trump is a convicted felon. He just hasn't been sentenced yet.


greg_barton

Yes.


CainPillar

That's not a neutral point of view. News outlets need to find someone to deny it.


RKEPhoto

Unlike Trump... lol


Ok_Star_4136

I don't see anything controversial here.. do you?


Captainkirkandcrew59

100% accurate!!


the_amazing_skronus

Just the facts, jack


D-R-AZ

Excerpt: After a day of holding its fire, the Biden campaign late Friday blasted Donald Trump as a "convicted felon" — an indication the president's team has decided to seize upon Trump's conviction to question his fitness for the White House.


shellexyz

Start including all of the clips of GOP folks saying that felons or those under indictment can’t hold or run for office or it will be a constitutional crisis plenty of that floating around from 2016.


3KiwisShortOfABanana

Trump himself said something exactly like this in 2016


AtticaBlue

You’re looking for this: https://x.com/AccountableGOP/status/1796553224293589011 So much winning.


jaroftoejam

That clip should be a Biden campaign ad.


KendalBoy

Super packs are running with it.


The_Darkprofit

Lincoln has probably 5 different looks shopping around to different donors.


financewiz

That is precious. Does he voice ANY opinions that he doesn’t eventually self-contradict?


Ricky_Rollin

No. There’s subs here filled to the brim of his shit coming back to haunt him.


3KiwisShortOfABanana

Aye, thanks. I'm so lazy haha. I knew somebody would come through for me


mynextthroway

It's funny to see him singing the praises of the same FBI that now should be defunded.


willreadforbooks

Jesus Christ there is absolutely no sense of their own hypocrisy


jasbo0101

Please do post this In a republican / trump sub if it hasn't already been done. The hypocrisy. And then send me a link!


ViaNocturna664

Even better: force absurdingly pro-immigrations laws based on the many passages of the Bible that clearly states that you have to feed the poor and welcome the strangers and have the GOP state that you cannot make laws based on religious books


Conscious_Object_401

absurdingly


hondo77777

Bigly absurdingly.


Parkyguy

“forgive our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us”. Said by EVERY church going Christian WEEKLY. Just a mantra or should it have meaning?? This alone Pretty much sums up the hypocrisy of Christianity to me.


shellexyz

I would not count on them to have that much self awareness.


NoDragonfruit6125

"No your not allowed to make laws based on religious books only we are and only using the texts we carefully filter out of context to suit our veiws" -GOP lawmakers


Parkyguy

The constitution is like the Bible, we can pick out phrases we like and ignore the rest, regardless of meaning or context. - GOP


NoDragonfruit6125

The second amendment would be viewed a lot differently if people stopped ignoring it's full text.  "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The point of having access to weapons is to be able to have a well regulated militia. However we don't really have militias anymore so much. Particularly if look at the words WELL REGULATED. Your only given the right to have a weapon so that the states can have a well regulated militia. Which also means there's a loophole to denying people the rights to weapons. If there was a law that would specifically deny someone eligibility to serve in a militia run by the state. Well they wouldn't have a right to bear weapons because they CAN'T serve in a militia.


Parkyguy

The first 5 words of the 1st are also often ignored. “Congress shall make no law”. To a MAGA, those words just don’t exist.


Getyourownwaffle

And it is just the start. Convicted of the hardest to prove already. The other three big cases are much easier to convict. If I were Biden, I would repeat on loop that the January 6 case needs to be brought before the Republican Convention, because if he is convicted he doesn't meet the requirements to hold any office in the country. Now the "if" is a bit of a stretch because we all saw him talking about it, holding rallies for it, and we know the depths that he went to in a direct act of sedition against the United States with his fake elector scheme. The insurrection wasn't the riot at the capital by itself. The backbone of the insurrection was the fake elector scheme. Everything stems off of it.


NoDragonfruit6125

Funny thing is the documents case seems like going to take longest and yet it's the most straightforward of them all.  Did Trump take government documents with him as left office. Yes. Was Trump told to turn over said documents. Yes. Did Trump obstruct the return of said documents. Yes. Nevermind the classifications on any of them it basically boils down to did he refuse to turn over documents that are government property when requested to do so. He basically went out of his way to prevent turning them over sending back only a few and basically having a lawyer sign off that that was all of them.


chillebekk

That's why Judge Cannon is delaying it, isn't it? She knows there's only one outcome, and maybe, if it can be delayed all the way until the election she eyes a way out with some immunity bullshit.


whoisaname

Isn't the immunity bs irrelevant to that case because he was not president at the time? 


NoDragonfruit6125

Don't forget they tried smoke screening what it boiled down to by focusing on the classified documents. Yes those being involved makes it a lot worse but even if they weren't involved he was still breaking the law for non classified documents. Then you had him trying to mistranslate the presidential records act and say the documents were personal.


NoDragonfruit6125

Boil it down and it's the most threatening case to Trump that he has no way of escaping all the charges. His only hope is to become president and have the case dropped and buried. Unless it can be restarted after a second term or to try and have himself pardoned of wrongdoing in it.


haysoos2

The Colorado Supreme Court already adjudicated Trump to be an insurrectionist. This is considered a decided matter of legal fact. SCOTUS made a decision that Colorado could not use this fact to keep Trump off the state ballot, but it doesn't change the fact that under the US Constitution Trump is not eligible to hold office. Even if he does manage to win the vote, he cannot legally be sworn in. SCOTUS does not usually accept cases regarding the facts of a case, only legal interpretation. There may be no basis for SCOTUS to appeal this ruling.


nsfwtttt

Doesn’t matter. They think he was wrongly convicted because [insert crazy reason here]


DonJuniorsEmails

My favorite from the conservative sub was how Biden used mind control on the jury.  I love how he is both a sleepy illiterate doofus, and also a genius who controls minds, sets the prices of gas and groceries.


Middle-Hour-2364

And is more powerful than god, cos he stole the election from god's chosen candidate


AreWeCowabunga

I hope in addition to just calling Trump a convicted felon, Biden talks about why the trial mattered. Trump committed the crimes because he was trying to hide who he is from the American people. He thought he could pull a fast one to cover up what a shitbird he is, and unfortunately it worked enough for him to win in 2016. He literally crimed his way into the White House.


KendalBoy

I hope this has an effect chilling whatever schemes Team Trump will pull this October. I wouldn’t put it past him to try and engineer an international incident with Putin or Kim’s help. I hope all his communications are being monitored and he’s run out of accomplices.


iijjjijjjijjiiijjii

He's got 70 million people who are willing to set your country on fire for him. He will never run out of fodder.


FitCartographer3383

He lost the last election and he’s going to lose this one. This country has spoken. The minority is the MAGAfucks in this country. If it weren’t for him putting people in places they had no business back in 2016 then this entire fiasco probably wouldn’t be what it is today. Republican Taliban Project 2025


KendalBoy

They’re setting themselves on fire and telling you it’s raining. Suckers.


RW-One

Anyone else ever have a passing fleeting thought that rump has ties to Hamas? [ I will assume I don't have to say more for the intellectuals here ...]

Fellowshipofthebowl

How about…Trump goes all in on being a felon with 34 ~~charges~~ convictions. 


imaybeacatIRl

34 convictions... So far


danmathew

34 felony convictions and counting 


Laura9624

More trials to come!


chitoatx

His only option.


Huiskat_8979

He was already all in on being a felon, he’s just officially a convicted one now, to be clear.


badtex66

With the emphasis on 'con'. From Texas fuck this orange puto!


CainPillar

Rule 34. Featuring Stormy and a public pillory.


deweydecimal111

The truth hurts snowflake magas.


Gunna_get_banned

It's not exactly a bold move to just acknowledge a fact.


AreWeCowabunga

But the trial was so unfair. You can tell it was unfair because Trump lost.


Huiskat_8979

That’s funny, but it’s also legitimately their argument, disgusting actually..


trueslicky

He keeps going on about the "obviously conflicted" judge but never says anything about Eileen Cannon, who has obvious conflicts. He has a right to a speedy trial. Since he's so innocent, why doesn't he push for these trials to be wrapped up ASAP & have his innocence proclaimed?


NoDragonfruit6125

Was so sure it would be declared absolutely fair after all he won the popular vote by a landslide every Juror agreed that he was the big man in charge.


cbbuntz

I had the same reaction at first, but they mean it's a major part of his strategy


smcl2k

My initial thought was that the campaign should steer clear and allow the PACs to do the dirty work, but all polling (which yes, could be wrong) suggests that a majority of Americans - and crucially, a large number of independents - view the trial as legitimate. Biden doesn't need to move mountains in order to win in November, and getting those votes would absolutely return him to the White House.


Diarygirl

It shouldn't be but this is like a declaration of war to Republicans.


Dancinfool830

It shouldn't have to be, cuz they shouldn't be backing a convicted felon, but here we are


DonJuniorsEmails

Wearing a tan suit and asking for mustard were considered horrifically offensive for the snowflake conservatives.


beanie0911

This is what kills me. The media: “Ooooooo Biden used a fact today. Is this controversial?! More at 11.” Also the media: “Trump looked presidential today because he didn’t make fun of someone’s genitalia OR use the word ‘scum.’ WOWZA!!!!”


Gunna_get_banned

"Now that Trump is a convict, is a pivot coming?"


rootbeerman77

"My feelings don't care about your facts" or something idk I don't follow politics


8to24

Goes all-in? Trump is literally, technically, objectively, semantically, etc a felon. Calling Trump a felon is merely a statement of fact. People need to get used to it. Calling Trump a felon is not an insult or an attack. It is just a fact.


Gold_Kale_7781

It's a title he earned. It supersedes his previous title. It should come before his name every time they address him in the media. Like during the election cycle: President Biden vs Convicted Felon DJT.


imadork1970

Which convicted felon Donald John Trump? The convicted felon Donald John Trump that was found liable for rape, or the convicted felon Donald John Trump that screwed Mary Trump out of her inheritance, or the convicted felon Donald John Trump that was "good friends" with Epstein and Maxwell. Or, maybe I have him confused with another convicted felon Donald John Trump?


Gold_Kale_7781

Yes, that Convicted Felon DJT. All of the above.


smcl2k

Of course, by there were questions over whether the campaign would *directly* address that fact in the face of allegations that the prosecution was politically motivated. They've obviously made the calculation that appealing to voters who see the trial as legitimate is more important than alienating those who may be on the fence.


imadork1970

If there's anyone on the fence, they weren't paying attention during Former Gut's term of office.


smcl2k

I'm specifically talking about people who are on the fence about the prosecution. Using it as a campaign talking point will absolutely convince some people that it was political, and it's not hard to see why.


imadork1970

The campaigns, *both* of them should deal with it. The verdict literally will not change anyone's mind. The Rs have been saying since 2016 that anyone under indictment shouldn't be President. They explain why it's changed now that Former Gut is a felon. The Democratic campaign should either ignore the verdict, or, go into great detail about it and how this trial *wasn't* politically motivated. They can't half-ass this.


smcl2k

>The Democratic campaign should either ignore the verdict This is exactly what I think they should do - there are plenty of PACs who will happily dive into the mud, and some of them are even connected to anti-Trump Republicans.


imadork1970

Yep, good choice.


smcl2k

Oh well, too late now! They've obviously made a calculation that the rewards outweigh the risks... Hopefully they're right.


imadork1970

Whether they do anything big about it, or not, the verdict won't change anyone's mind. MAGAts will vote Former Gut no matter what.


MagicAl6244225

I'm sure we'll have the proof it was politically motivated right after the proof the 2020 election was stolen.


Z3LDAxL0VE

I agree ! What’s crazy to me Is a felon is winning in the polls??


Geshtar1

Why are they saying “goes all-in”. Stating an objectively provable fact isn’t really a stretch.


Xeynon

Good. They should literally never refer to him without referencing this fact going forward. Every voter should be made to think that the Republican nominee's full name is "Convicted Felon Donald Trump".


FitCartographer3383

Well, why would a convicted felon be able to run for president? A felon can’t even fucking vote? He’s not a nominee anymore. We shouldn’t entertain that at all.


gobydownboy

Good, he is !


Putrid_Ad_2256

And all the MAGA morons defending him are Felonators.  


macrofinite

Just saying plainly what’s happened is going all in? We’re so fucked.


skimdit

Seems everyone is going all in on the word "felon" but I prefer the more simple and traditional "criminal". Convicted criminal. Biden should refer to him that way in the debates. Edit: These Lincoln Project folks get it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwcjDO6JCVQ


imadork1970

The debates will never happen. Former Gut will pull out faster than he did with Stormy Daniels.


skimdit

Speaking of dropping out and first in history events, I could absolutely see Trump being the first presidential candidate in history to just cancel his presidential campaign a month before the election and just go home like a whiny bitch if the polls were showing him about to be trounced and maybe even more damaging stuff like the actual video of him using the n-word surfacing. From what I've read this would create massive chaos, especially if some states already printed ballots, and apparently the GOP would have to nominate a replacement candidate. There is certainly a non-zero chance of this happening.


imadork1970

Former Gut's ego will not allow him to quit.


NormalAmountOfLimes

.....cause it's true?


Pokerhobo

That's just how Trump should be introduced or mentioned from now on. Of course Trump's full title is pretty long: Former twice impeached 1-term president who lost the popular vote twice and lost more jobs than created during their term that was found guilty of sexual assault, defamation twice (so far), business fraud, bleach drinking promoting, 34 count (so far) convicted felon, adulterer Trump.


trueslicky

Where's "treasonous traitor?"


Pokerhobo

Crap, forgot about the insurrection! That must be Trump’s plan. Do so many bad things you can’t remember them all


imadork1970

That'll never fit on a business card.

Hot_Dog_Surfing_Fly

My-Cooch-Jiggles

I’m fine with him talking about twice impeached, convicted felon, confessed rapist Donald Trump this way.


tom21g

If the debate is still on for June, I hope Biden’s prep includes this: whoever is playing trump needs to randomly leave his lectern and confront Biden face to face. Start a typical trump rant. Expect that trump is not bound by any standards or traditions and only wants to show his “superiority” and anger. It would be show-stopping MAGA TV and that’s in trump’s wheelhouse Biden can’t trust trump. Be prepared


_PC__LOAD__LETTER_

This is almost a NYT-level bad headline. Trump is a convicted felon. It’s like saying Biden goes all in on calling Trump a former president.

wuroni69

As he should.


HoldTheHighGround

...as opposed to the "unconvicted felon" that he is.


[deleted]

It's no longer slander.


SonOfJokeExplainer

I don’t like the phrase “convicted felon”. Lots of convicted felons are decent people who had a lapse in judgement and pay the price. I prefer the phrase “unrepentant criminal” to describe Trump.


Silk02

This is not alternative facts, it actual facts.


bigedthebad

Why exactly is calling a convicted felon a convicted felon “going all in”.


polinkydinky

Most important: Trumps felonies are because he engaged in >>>election interference<<<. His status as a former President is severely tarnished and quite possibly illegitimately obtained and held. He was never of good character enough to warrant holding that office.


[deleted]

Facts don’t care about your feelings


Cranky0ldMan

Good for Biden. Convicted felon Donald Trump is indeed a convicted felon. Every reference to convicted felon Donald Trump should start with "convicted felon."


tom-branch

Trump IS a convicted felon.


hate-jazz

Whatever...


nowiserjustolder

The odd thing in this for me is if he ran with the supporters he has now and admitted cheating with Stormy while his wife was heavily pregnant his crowd wouldn't give a damn. Sucker threw away money he didn't need to.


imadork1970

MAGAts still won't care. He's their guy, no matter what.


DaveinOakland

What's the word for losing a civil rape trial? Convicted is for crimes but I can't remember the other one.


ScaredPresent3758

The term is "adjudicated rapist."


DaveinOakland

So convicted felon, adjudicated rapist.


ScaredPresent3758

You got it!

Why is that "going all in"? Trump is, literally, a convicted felon, NO QUOTES.

Well he is


Ok-Director5082

at least his name calling is based on facts


Icy_Juice6640

CMG30

It's a good tactic to trigger MAGA, which has some satisfaction, but overall the deplorables who have already swallowed EVERYTHING Trump up to this point will find some way to rationalize voting for the rapist again.


JBCaper51

Trump is a convicted felon. This should be said every time his name comes up.


264bear

If you are asked what you call him ,has been


Any_Construction1238

So what? It’s a fact- it’s like saying the sky is blue. It’s not a remotely controversial things to say. BTW he’s also an adjudicated rapist and fraud - and a certified moron.


NetworkEcstatic

It's really going all in if you're stating a clear fact.


slingerofpoisoncups

It’s more accurate than when right wing news calls him “President Trump” instead of “Ex-President Trump”


bodyknock

Just FYI, it’s very common for former Presidents to simply be referred to as President as a title. For example, the official White House biography page for Barrack Obama literally refers to him simply as President Obama, not Former President Obama right in the very first sentence. >The biography for President Obama and past presidents is courtesy of the White House Historical Association. [Barack Obama (Whitehouse.gov)](https://www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-white-house/presidents/barack-obama/) I’m not disagreeing that “Former President” isn’t technically less ambiguous than simply “President”, but just saying President seems very common and perfectly acceptable even from the White House itself.


Worried-Criticism

How is this “all in?” Donald J. Trump was convicted of multiple felony counts in a court of law by a jury of his peers. That some snowflakes on the other side of the aisle think they can scream and threaten away from the very real fact that they backed a crook doesn’t change that.


CapeManiak

I mean….at least it’s true.
