2024 Election
As Trump Arrested, Biden Talks To Zelensky, Appeals For Campaign Donations On X
Biden made no mention of Trump’s legal woes, sticking with a policy of avoiding commenting on the troubles facing the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
As former President Donald Trump was arrested in Atlanta, US President Joe Biden announced he had a conversation with Ukraine’s president on Friday and produced a fresh solicitation for contributions to his 2024 re-election campaign “apropos of nothing.”
Biden was reticent all day on Friday while on vacation at a home overlooking Lake Tahoe, but at almost the exact time Trump’s plane landed in Atlanta, the White House heralded the phone call with Volodymyr Zelensky.
“May today be a reminder that the forces of darkness and dominion will never extinguish the flame of liberty that lives in the heart of free people everywhere,”

“May today be a reminder that the forces of darkness and dominion will never extinguish the flame of liberty that lives in the heart of free people everywhere,” Biden wrote from his official presidential account on the social media platform X, previously known as Twitter, after proclaiming the call.
Biden, however, sent out an appeal on X for donations to his re-election campaign at about the same time as Trump was on his way to be arrested at the Fulton County Jail.

“Apropos of nothing, I think today’s a great day to give to my campaign,” Biden wrote.
Richard Blumenthal, Elizabeth Warren and ‘RINO’ Lindsey Graham went to Ukraine to meet with Zelensky. How enthusiastic they are to see one another, reminds me of myself as a child at Christmas knowing there were gifts under the tree for me. pic.twitter.com/GnyqFwCW69

Get this Zelensky's mother-in-law buys a villa in Egypt for $4.8Million USD and the people of Maui get 700 USD. @HouseGOP @SpeakerMcCarthy @RepDanBishop https://t.co/XUmd5RVs4Q

Vivek Ramaswamy: “I find it offensive that we have professional politicians on this stage that will make a pilgrimage to Kyiv to their pope Zelensky without doing the same think for people in Maui or the south side of Chicago…”
