In a recent development, former President Donald Trump has leveled sharp criticism at former President Barack Obama for his treatment of President Joe Biden. During a public appearance, Trump accused Obama of treating Biden like a “child” by leading him off stage, a gesture he described as belittling and indicative of a broader disrespect.

Trump: “Joe Biden is humiliating our country on the world stage … He’s blaming it now on AI Video:

‘You know I love Milwaukee,’ Trump said at the top of his remarks to a crowd just 30 miles south of the Wisconsin city, and in reference to the host city of the 2024 Convention said: ‘I’m the one who picked Milwaukee, you know.’

‘Crooked Joe and his handlers are insisting he’s sharper than ever and they say the videos of Crooked Joe shuffling around are clean fakes. You know what a clean fake is? They’re deceptively edited,’ Trump said, using the incorrect term for ‘deep fake.’

‘They say they’re deceptively edited,’ he continued. ‘All of the mistakes that he’s made every day. He can’t go anywhere without a mistake.’

‘He looked like he didn’t know where the hell he was, but he didn’t know where he was. He’s blaming it now on AI. He’s saying it’s AI. He doesn’t know what AI is – but that’s OK,’ Trump said.

‘They’re saying the media’s manipulation – oh, he’s saying the media is manipulating now? On that one I have to stick up for the media,’ the former president chuckled.

‘He said the media’s manipulating the pictures of him constantly not knowing where the hell he is. They’re doing just the opposite that make them look better.’

‘Remember, we win Wisconsin and we win the whole thing,’ Trump said.

‘First he wandered off the G7 in Europe, the stage. He looked like he didn’t know where the hell he was, but he didn’t know where he was,’ Trump said.

‘He had to be rescued by other world leaders and they had to pull him back then he bizarrely put his face on the Pope’s forehead. What was that all about?’ the former president questioned. ‘That was weird… Did you see the Pope? The Pope was like, what’s happening? The Pope didn’t really know what was happening. He said this is strange.’

‘Then he froze during the celebration on the White House lawn,’ he said. ‘Then Barack Hussein Obama had to grab his hand and lead him off stage as though he were a child. I have to tell you, Obama could have handled that differently. He could have done it a little bit softer… He didn’t have been grab him and pull him off the stage.’

Trump’s comments come in the wake of an incident where Obama was seen guiding Biden off stage during a public event.

Trump also mocked the White House’s recent attempts to attribute certain public missteps to artificial intelligence (AI) issues. The Biden administration has been vocal about advancing responsible AI development, with Biden recently issuing a significant executive order aimed at managing AI risks and promoting innovation​ (The White House)​​ (MIT Technology Review)​.

According to the Daily Mail,

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said during a press briefing when asked about the recent uptick in Biden’s freezes: ‘It tells you everything that we need to know about how desperate Republicans are here.’

‘And instead of talking about the president’s performance in office, and what I mean by that is his legislative wins, what he’s been able to do for the American people across the country, we’re seeing these deep fakes, these manipulated videos,’ she said.

‘And it is, again, done in bad faith.’

Critics, including Trump, argue that the administration’s emphasis on AI and its potential risks is a distraction from more pressing issues. They see the invocation of AI as an excuse to deflect from policy failures and administrative gaffes. Trump’s jibes resonate with a segment of the conservative base that is skeptical of both the capabilities and the intentions behind the current administration’s tech policies.

This is not an AI video.

Joe Biden really said this.

“What an odd thing to say”

As the debate over AI and leadership styles continues, it remains to be seen how these issues will influence public opinion and voter behavior in the upcoming elections. For now, Trump’s sharp critiques and Biden’s policy-driven responses exemplify the deeply polarized nature of contemporary American politics.
