Donald Trump has launched a scathing attack on Jill Biden after the former first lady revealed in her upcoming memoir that she feared her husband, Joe Biden, might have been suffering from a stroke during their June 2024 presidential debate.
Trump's Response
In a post on Truth Social, Trump criticised Jill Biden for not praising his own debate performance and for failing to intervene to help her husband. He suggested that his "strong performance" caused Joe Biden to "choke."
The Memoir's Revelations
Jill Biden's memoir, titled "View From the East Wing," details her confusion and fear during the debate. She wrote that she questioned whether Joe Biden was "short-circuiting," "drugged," or "having a stroke." She reportedly stated that she had "never ever seen Joe like that before or since" and that he "lost himself" on stage. After the debate, Joe Biden allegedly asked her if he had "really f**ked up."
Democratic Concerns
The memoir and its accompanying publicity tour are reportedly angering some Democrats, who would rather focus on upcoming elections than revisit the 2024 presidential campaign. The revelations have reopened old wounds within the party, with many preferring to move forward rather than re-litigate the past.
Trump's comments mark his first public response to the memoir's bombshell claims, intensifying the political drama surrounding the Biden family.
