President Bidenā€™s reelection campaign has dubbed former President Trump ā€œBroke Don,ā€ taking a strategy out of Trumpā€™s playbook that his political rivals know all too well.

Trump has used nicknames ā€” from ā€œLittle Marcoā€ to ā€œCrooked Hillaryā€ to ā€œLyinā€™ Tedā€ ā€” to put down a variety of opponents. For much of 2020, Bidenā€™s moniker, courtesy of Trump, was ā€œSleepy 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 presidentā€™s lagging fundraising numbers in the 2024 race.

      The standard of ā€œdonā€™t hurl childish insults at bad peopleā€ isnā€™t a standard I care terribly much about. Neither the name calling nor the pearl clutching are important in any way.
