Is ‘Trump is Hitler’ the best Biden’s got?

It’s desperate stuff from Biden’s team. The attempt to present Biden as the great defender of democracy might be a little more convincing if his Justice Department wasn’t trying to put Trump, his likely presidential opponent, in jail. And while Biden might claim that Trump has been trying to ‘deny your right to vote’, his fellow Democrats in other US states have been trying to remove Trump from the ballot. Jailing your opponent and removing him from ballots sounds awfully autocratic to me, but what do I know.

It’s remarkable that the ‘Trump is Hitler’ strategy is the best that Biden’s team can come up with. Here we are, three years into his presidency, and his re-election message is all about events that happened before he entered the White House. Biden’s campaign team has clearly decided that his supposed achievements – such as Bidenomics and green investments – will have little purchase with voters.

This is weak, negative campaigning. And yet there is method to Biden’s apparent madness. Demonising Trump and his supporters, as Biden did in a manic speech delivered against a blood-red backdrop in Philadelphia in 2022, was a big factor (along with the abortion issue) in rallying Democrat support and winning over independents in that year’s Midterms. Biden’s campaign team clearly hopes that a repeat of this approach will bear fruit again.
