The president is increasingly turning to personal, biting and often sarcastic broadsides against his 2024 Republican opponent.
As President Joe Biden works to defeat Donald Trump, he’s increasingly focused on another goal he thinks will help him achieve that: getting under his skin.
In recent weeks, both in private and public settings, Biden has ramped up personal, biting and often sarcastic broadsides against his Republican opponent, targeting his financial challenges, his campaign tempo and even his weight.
It’s a strategy largely driven by Biden himself, according to multiple aides and advisers familiar with the approach.

Biden could promise the moon, but the Republicans and conservatives will still thumb their nose at him. Undermining Trump, making him look weak, and keeping him angry is the best way to make him screw up and alienate conservatives who are on the fence.
It’s not immature, it is their calculated tactic so that you have to vote for people that broadly represent almost identical politics. They don’t wont to promise any good things, just promise that they will not be as bad as the other candidate and then they are free to do whatever they want. This is why Democrats got Trump as a Republican candidate. source
