Campaign becomes more expensive
Biden gone: Trump now wants “compensation”
Donald Trump's team must now change course following Joe Biden's withdrawal from the race for the highest office in the USA. Anti-Biden TV ads have already been stopped. Now, of course, even more funding is needed. Now Trump is even bringing a compensation claim into play.
Biden was certainly the perfect opponent for Trump, as could be seen not least in the TV duel between the two, which the Republican won according to many observers. It was then that Biden's decline began, which culminated in his withdrawal from the presidential election campaign on Sunday.
Attacks are already being made on Vice President Kamala Harris, who could don Biden's boxing gloves. But the final Democratic opponent has not yet been determined. For this reason, investigations into several possible Democratic candidates have already been commissioned.
Trump feels "cheated"
However, Trump feels "cheated" in his fight against Biden, as he writes on his social media platform "Truth Social". "Now we have to start all over again. Shouldn't the Republican Party be compensated for this fraud? Just asking?", the 78-year-old real estate tycoon announced. He also referred to reports from Biden's team and doctors who had spread "false information".
Will there be legal disputes?
In fact, the Republicans could take legal action against the handover of the campaign baton to Harris. Even before Biden's long-delayed decision, Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House of Representatives, noted that Biden had been "chosen by 14 million people after a long democratic process". And now the names on the ballot papers could be "swapped in some backroom", Johnson speculated in an interview with the news channel CNN. He assumes that there will be legal disputes at state level.
