As former US president Donald Trump has been surrounded with legal troubles facing indictments including the charge of Capitol Hill riots, campaigner for Joe Biden has made a shocking revelation about the Republican and his threats.
Jim Messina — who also served as campaign manager for Barack Obama in 2012 — told CNN: "Being the president of the United States means you’re part of a small club; there is no other group of people whose red flags about the direct threat of Donald Trump should be taken more seriously."
Joe Biden has been criticising the business mogul for undermining the US democracy and institutions with his false claims such as rigged elections of 2020.
The 77-year-old Trump has been facing four criminal indictments and 91 counts of felonies including election interference in 2020 in Georgia, retention of classified documents after leaving the office, hush money to an adult film star, and instigating supporters to storm Capitol Hill on January 6, 2021.
Barack Obama and his former White House team are providing their full assistance against the Republican businessman.
Messina also said that former president Obama plans to do whatever he can to help 81-year-old Biden secure a second term.
"That mission has only been made significantly more urgent by Trump’s emergence as the presumptive Republican nominee," he noted.
"President Obama once said to me that every president is a reflection of the previous president, and he’s right. Trump was the complete opposite of Obama, and Biden is the complete opposite of Trump."
On Thursday, President Biden, along with Obama and former president Bill Clinton is all set to sit for a campaign fundraiser at Radio City Music Hall which people from the entertainment industry are also expected to join.
