President Bidenās reelection campaign has dubbed former President Trump āBroke Don,ā taking a strategy out of Trumpās playbook that his political rivals know all too well.
Trump has used nicknames ā from āLittle Marcoā to āCrooked Hillaryā to āLyinā Tedā ā to put down a variety of opponents. For much of 2020, Bidenās moniker, courtesy of Trump, was āSleepy Joe.ā
Now, the Biden team is seeking to turn the tables in attempting to make one stick to Trump while it worked this week to highlight the former presidentās lagging fundraising numbers in the 2024 race.
Yeah, just look at all the people on lemmy and reddit who focus on Trumpās skin color instead of his myriad crimes, piss poor performance as president, and attempted coup.
Namecalling as a strategy and namecalling as a means of releasing pent-up frustration are two different things, Iād argue.
Hell, Iād even put namecalling as provocation as different from namecalling as a strategy for garnering support.
