President Biden is actively promoting an anti-Trump message both publicly and in private donor events. He is focusing on foreign policy, a rare centerpiece in presidential elections, to criticize former President Trump for his failure to condemn the death of Alexei Navalny. Biden is using his platform to highlight Trump's comments on NATO as dangerous and potentially encouraging Moscow's bad behavior. The President is emphasizing this message to donors and plans to make it a central argument to voters in the upcoming months.
During a fundraising swing in California, Biden aims to maintain his financial advantage over Republicans. His campaign recently announced having $130 million cash on hand, the most for any Democratic candidate at this stage. Despite concerns about his age and campaign status, the donor class continues to support President Biden.
At a Los Angeles fundraiser, Biden humorously referenced his age, emphasizing that experience comes with age. The President is expected to announce the cancellation of $1.2 billion in student loan debt, benefiting over 150,000 borrowers. This move aligns with his ongoing efforts to address student debt, a key priority since taking office.
The White House has been exploring alternative options for debt cancellation after facing obstacles from the Supreme Court. By forgiving student loans and directly notifying borrowers, Biden seeks to underscore his commitment to this issue, particularly appealing to young voters and voters of color.
