As leaders on both sides of the political aisle criticized Donald Trump while praising Joe Biden at this week’s virtual Democratic National Convention, the president did his best to steal the spotlight with a range of calculated counterprogramming events and statements.
Long known to hit back at any and all criticism, Trump made sure to respond to the slights made against him at the convention. While speaking to reporters on Monday, Trump called Kasich a “major loser” ahead of Kasich’s DNC speech. On Monday, Trump teased a pardon for a “very, very important” person. A day later, at a White House event commemorating the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, he pardoned Susan B. Anthony — a move that, according to ABC News, some historians say goes against Anthony’s legacy. At that event, Trump also said Michelle Obama, who spoke on Monday, was in “over her head” and said her speech was “divisive,” according to Politico.
He also picked a fight with the Goodyear corporation on Wednesday, suggesting on Twitter that the tire maker was preventing employees from using his trademark “Make America Great Again” slogan on the job. The tweet prompted a statement from the company.— Donald J. Trump August 19, 2020 But, on Goodyear, Trump’s counterprogramming gave Biden’s campaign another opening to attack him. Biden’s campaign released a statement during the briefing slamming Trump for the remarks.
