President Biden: My predecessor claimed he would ‘reclaim our country's manufacturing legacy’ and then he didn't build a damn thing. In fact, he came here with your Senator Ron Johnson, literally holding a golden shovel promising to build the ‘eighth wonder of the world.’ Are you kidding me?

Accuracy Alert!

None of the provided sources support the claim that Donald Trump has died. Most references to death in these articles are either related to comments made by Trump or the deaths associated with the Coronavirus or other political incidents. It's important to ensure information is accurate before sharing, and based on these sources, the claim that Donald Trump has died is unsubstantiated.

"During my time as a federal prosecutor, I occasionally saw defendants try to micromanage their cases and run roughshod over their defense attorneys. This approach is always a recipe for disaster. In other words, it looks like Trump may be not only his own worst enemy, but his own worst advocate."

The greatest threat to Trump’s trial defense is Trump himself

Trump thinks that Todd Blanche, the lead lawyer in his New York trial, has not been aggressive enough. But it's Trump who's risking the whole trial.

Here is where I take issue: Why are they hiding their faces. Say it with your whole chest. Bad actors should be easily identifiable as those looking to conceal their identity.

And this is why I want people to be careful about blaming "the students" for property damage, because he's not the only example of an outside non-student agitator who has been in the news for this type of behavior at the protests.
