The former president then claimed that the United States will be in serious trouble if President Biden is re-elected.

That’s why it’s so important that we have real journalists and why we have X.com, why this Will you stand up against the madness? Because if Americans did, people would know the truth, they would vote for Bernie Moreno, they would vote for Donald Trump, and we would have a great election in 2024. .”
