According to Trump, Biden, among other things, is “destroying the health care and social security system” in the United States. “The world cannot believe what happened to the United States, no one respects us, they consider us stupid,” the Republican is sure. “What this man did is an absolute crime.”
Although the question asked of Trump concerned the US national debt, he attempted to develop the topic in the direction he needed. He didn’t wait for the debate to bring up the recent New York state court verdict, where he was found guilty of a felony charge of falsifying business records, but attacked himself. Trump chastised the Biden administration for politicizing justice and using it against political opponents, probably referring primarily to himself. The “absolute crime” comment was also likely intended to immediately deflect Biden’s likely attacks on Trump’s guilty verdict.
