Joe Biden
President Joe Biden, a Democrat who defeated Trump in 2020, posted to his Twitter account a video critical of the former president with the caption, "Donald Trump failed America."
The video included narration and quotes claiming that Trump passed "tax cuts for the rich and corporations," that he oversaw "record-breaking unemployment" (fueled by pandemic closures) during his term and that he is "the only modern president to leave office with fewer jobs than when he took office."
The video highlighted controversial comments that Trump has made and criticized his 2016 campaign promise to pass anti-abortion laws. Biden's video also stressed Trump's reported plan to pardon people who took part in the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot.
