Amidst his ongoing campaign to be the 2024 presidential candidate from the GOP, former President Donald Trump posted a video of him hitting current President Joe Biden with a golf ball on Truth Social Friday.
Of course, the video is edited. At first it shows Trump hitting a golf ball, and it displays a red line to show where it went. It then cut to footage of Biden tripping on his way up to a stage to make it seem like he was hit with the airborne ball.
“ANOTHER GREAT SHOT!” said Trump in the post caption.
Trump has hardly taken a pause from criticizing Biden since he lost the 2020 election. He often pokes fun at Biden’s age (80 to Trump’s 77) and he maintains that election interference cost him a second term, although he lacks any evidence.
After the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas attacked Israel last Saturday, Trump blamed the ordeal on a Biden administration deal that gave Iran – a source of funding for Hamas – access to $6 billion. Trump also posted a video of himself saying Biden “can’t find his way off of a stage,” this weekend.
Since he announced his candidacy last November, Trump has maintained a strong lead against the pool of potential GOP presidential nominees.
As of the latest FiveThirtyEight polling, he had support from more than 58% of Republican voters, even as he fights legal battles that could prevent him from appearing on the ballot.
Recent polling also shows that Trump and Biden, the likely Democratic candidate, are neck and neck.
