Either that or just muddy the waters so that the criticism of Trump isn&#8217;t taken seriously. It&#8217;s projection on a grand scale that only affirms the maliciousness and dishonesty of Trump. He recently tried to invoke the same ploy to deflect accurate descriptions of Trump as an aspiring dictator&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=59221\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Cloddishly Dodges Hannity\u2019s Softball Questions About Whether He Would Be a Dictator<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Thursday morning Lara Trump was the messenger of this maneuver on Newsmax, the network that currently <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediamatters.org\/newsmax\/2024-looms-lara-trump-moonlights-newsmax-guest-host\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">employs her<\/a><\/strong> as contributor and fill-in host. She was asked about recent <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2023\/12\/06\/biden-democrat-trump-2024-elections-00130403\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">remarks by Biden<\/a><\/strong>, who when asked about the potential of his facing a rematch with Trump said that <em>\u201cIf Trump wasn\u2019t running, I\u2019m not sure I\u2019d be running.\u201d<\/em> In response to a follow up question about whether any other Democrats could beat Trump, Biden added, <em>&#8220;I\u2019m not the only one, But I will defeat him.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>That led daughter-in-law Lara to contrive a crackpot theory that Biden is only running to avoid future investigations conducted by a weaponized Trump Justice Department. It&#8217;s a theory that she stole from Democratic legal experts who have plausibly surmised that it is Trump who is hoping to avoid prison by winning a second term. Lara said that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Very interesting to hear Joe Biden say that I guess the only reason he&#8217;s decided to run is because of Donald Trump. Well, is that because he thinks that Donald Trump might investigate his family even further? You know, you look at this situation with Hunter Biden. I think a lot of people might, might draw some correlation there and say, well, maybe the only reason that Joe Biden is trying to hang on to power is because his family depends on him trying to continue the cover up that we know has happened for the Biden crime family. It\u2019s very interesting. This is nothing new. This is part of of the politics that we see here in the United States of America. But people know very well that Donald Trump is not a dictator, of course.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lara Trump says Biden is just running for president to avoid going to prison. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/YDO29Ox26U\">pic.twitter.com\/YDO29Ox26U<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Ron Filipkowski (@RonFilipkowski) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RonFilipkowski\/status\/1732731407531745693?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 7, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>First of all, Biden never said that the <em>&#8220;only&#8221;<\/em> reason he&#8217;s running is avoid being investigated by Trump. He merely said that he wasn&#8217;t <em>&#8220;sure&#8221;<\/em> if would run. He has long held the position that he is best suited to defeat Trump, and that if Trump were not running, he could sit it out.<\/p>\n<p>More to the point, Lara&#8217;s contention that Biden is afraid of any legal scrutiny is wholly manufactured in her head. Unlike Trump, Biden has never tried to evade any legal inquiries or subpoenas. Plus, there are no pending indictments or charges that he would need to worry about. Nor have Republicans been able to come up with any shred of evidence of any wrongdoing on Biden&#8217;s part, despite years of trying. Trump, on the other hand, is facing 91 felony counts in four indictments. So it&#8217;s Trump, not Biden, who has some realistic fears of future prosecution and incarceration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=58696\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump&#8217;s Derangement Spirals Ever Downward as He Impotently Promises to Prove His Innocence<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Lara&#8217;s phony projection is a de facto admission that her father-in-law poses a real threat to Biden. She is conceding the possibility that Trump would abuse his power as president to persecute Biden and his other political enemies.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s also notable that Lara closed these comments by declaring that <em>&#8220;Donald Trump is not a dictator.&#8221;<\/em> You know you&#8217;re not winning an argument If you have to conclude it with a public denial like that. Even so, her denial is contrary to the rhetoric that Trump has been spewing. His hostile references to <em>&#8220;retribution,&#8221;<\/em> locking up his critics, building concentration camps, and his adoration of foreign tyrants, are proof, in his own words, of his nefarious intentions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED STORIES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=59139\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Threatens to \u2018Come Down Hard on\u2019 MSNBC and \u2018Make Them Pay\u2019 for Daring to Criticize Him<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=59036\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump\u2019s Uber-MAGA 2024 Campaign Message Reeks of the 3rd Reich Rhetoric of the \u2018Final Battle\u2019<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=58893\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Wannabe Dictator Trump Declares His Intention to Obstruct Justice and Undermine the Constitution<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=58765\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Literally Pledges to Stage \u2018RIGGED\u2019 Trials to Punish Democrats for Upholding the Law<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Be sure to visit and follow News Corpse<br \/>\non <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NewsCorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/NewsCorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/newscorpse\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.net\/@newscorpse\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Threads<\/a>.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>And check out my books on Amazon:<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aOYFpM\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox Nation vs. Reality:<br \/>\nThe Fox News Cult of Ignorance.<\/a><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><strong>Thanks so much for your support.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has become increasingly clear that the primary campaign strategy of Donald Trump as he seeks to reoccupy the White House is a variation on the elementary school debate response, &#8220;I know you are, but what am I?&#8221; It shouldn&#8217;t surprise anyone that the Trump camp would revert to such a childish tactic considering that [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":50986,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1475,152,1,684,8,16],"tags":[67,554,1140,377,123,1515,256],"class_list":["post-59230","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime","category-election","category-general","category-media-bias","category-propaganda","category-wankery","tag-crime","tag-donald-trump","tag-election","tag-joe-biden","tag-justice","tag-lara-trump","tag-newsmax"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/..\/Pix\/Trump\/biden-trump-baby-2.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p4Ijg-fpk","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":62031,"url":"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=62031","url_meta":{"origin":59230,"position":0},"title":"Don&#8217;t Even Try It?
