President Biden with a classic, brilliant wedge appeal

Joe Biden @JoeBiden
You don’t have to agree with me on everything to know MAGA extremism is a threat to this country.

President Biden today: "Donald Trump made it clear he doesn’t want Nikki Haley’s supporters. I want to be clear: There is a place for them in my campaign. I know there is a lot we won’t agree on. But on the fundamental issues of preserving American democracy, on standing up for the rule of law, on treating each other with decency and dignity and respect, on preserving NATO and standing up to America’s adversaries, I hope and believe we can find common ground."

...in debt and trailing behind Dems and the Biden camp.

It's about the president taking smart advantage of this unique situation where the republican's leading candidate is so offensive he's OPENLY alienating over 30% of their OWN voters.

Trump last week:

“And they say— always trying to demean— ‘well MAGA really represents 48% of the Republican Party’— no, now it represents 96% and maybe 100%. We're getting rid of the Romneys of the world. We wanna get Romney and those out.”

...completely.

No one, especially the Biden campaign, believes anything Trump says.

The president is needling him here, and taking advantage of this new move by Trump to alienate 'Romneys' and others who aren't MAGA cultists.
