'Angry and ranting full of lies': Trump throws a fit at Biden's DNC speech

Donald Trump Tuesday hurled insults, false claims and, accusations at President Joe Biden Tuesday amid mounting calls from his own campaign to focus his attacks on the policies of his actual political opponent.

Trump lashed out against his former political foe one day after he passed the torch to Vice President Kamala Harris at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

"An angry and ranting Speech full of LIES," Trump wrote. "Biden took credit for everything done during the Trump Administration, even continuing to say that he was better on Inflation and Jobs."

A Washington Post DNC fact-check Tuesday found 12 claims the outlet argued needed context, although this fact check received harsh feedback from some readers who said it created a false equivalency between Biden's rhetoric and Trump's Republican National Convention speech which included more than 20 false claims.

During his address at the DNC, Biden lambasted Trump for his criminal conviction, a negative political campaign message the president described as "dead wrong," and his handling of the global Covid pandemic.

"Covid no longer controls our lives," Biden said. "We’ve gone from economic crisis to the strongest economy in the entire world.”

The economy is one of the key drivers of the upcoming election and Republicans have made inflation a central issue in the campaign.

Inflation spiked under Biden but reached its lowest level in three years last month, overall employment is up 11 percent and average pay has increased 17 percent under Biden's administration, reports show.

Trump also took aim at Biden's record at job creation by spouting a completely baseless claim that most of the millions of jobs created over the last four years went to undocumented immigrants.

"The Jobs Biden/Harris 'created' were almost 100% from Illegal Aliens pouring into our Country," Trump wrote, "which are destroying the lives of our Black and Hispanic population!"

Last week, Trump falsely claimed artificial intelligence was responsible for images of crowds gathering at Harris' campaign events, spurring concerns from fans that his unfocused attacks would lose him the 2024 election.

Trump Tuesday also argued Biden's valedictory address should have included the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, foreign wars, and a boast about covid death tolls.

"He never mentioned the Afghanistan Disaster and all the Wars he got us into," Trump wrote, "or the fact that far more people died from COVID during the Biden years than the Trump years."

In 2021, a commission tasked with analyzing Trump's covid policies found 40 percent of deaths in the U.S. might have been averted.

While the report found the U.S. found itself ill-prepared after decades of healthcare cuts, it argued Trump bore responsibility for bringing “misfortune to the USA and the planet."
