Washington, March 13.- President Joe Biden and his predecessor, Donald Trump, only need the official announcement of the nomination by their respective parties because their candidacy for the United States elections in November is now assured.
Biden and Trump pocketed the presidential primaries in Georgia, Mississippi and Washington this Tuesday, meaning this will definitely be a revenge fight in eight months.
So the path is clear and clear: Biden will be the rival of Republican Donald Trump, in what was already predicted as a revenge fight and that some call it bitter and close against Trump.
With this result, the only thing missing is the official nomination at the Democratic National Convention to be held in Chicago, Illinois, in August, and a month before the Republican one will take place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
In a statement from his campaign on Tuesday night, Biden warned that "the threat posed by Trump is greater than ever" and that his eventual opponent on the ticket in a few months is carrying out a campaign of resentment, revenge and retaliation that threatens the very idea of ??America.
According to a statement, Trump is glorifying dictators and promising to become one himself from day one.
Although both Trump and Biden are not very distant from a generational point of view, the Democrat maintains this point as one of his vulnerabilities, in line with the surveys.
The president's image received some oxygen last week when in his State of the Union speech he tried to calm voters about his physical condition, appearing during the 68 minutes of the primetime address with contrasting energy and verve. with previous dates.
Right now the main opposition to Biden does not come from any candidate, but from that more general anxiety within the party over the issue of age and the indignation of the progressive wing of the party over the administration's support for Israel in its war against Hamas in Gaza, highlights analysis from the local press.
On Trump's side, they have done little - and apparently will not do - the legal entanglements of the former president, who will have to answer in four trials for 91 state and federal charges, most of them for serious crimes. Incidentally, Biden won Georgia by fewer than 12,000 votes in 2020, the first Democratic presidential candidate to do so since William Clinton in 1992.
Trump's defeat there revived the hornet's nest, because the Republican, dissatisfied, questioned and tried to reverse the calculations in his favor. Those efforts are the basis of an indictment for which Trump and a large group of co-defendants will face trial in Fulton County, in the city of Atlanta. (Text and photo: PL)
