Jill Biden launched an unhinged attack on Donald Trump over the weekend, accusing him of doing “everything he can to make Joe look bad.”
Jill Attacks Trump
Daily Mail reported that while speaking at a fundraiser in Houston on Saturday night, Jill responded to Trump publicly opposing a border compromise that is being worked on in the Senate.
“You see what happened today with the border, and now Trump is trying to do everything he can to make Joe look bad, you know, even at the lives — sacrificing lives of so many people just for his own political gain,” she said.
“I know it’s early to start, but I want you to sort of think after you leave tonight that yes, I am committed to a democracy. And yes, I’m going to fight as hard as I can and not let anything like 2016 happen again,” she continued.
This appearance was part of a three-day fundraising swing that Jill embarked on through South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida and Texas. She has become more aggressive in campaigning for her husband, joining him in attacking conservatives and claiming that “MAGA Republicans” are a threat to democracy.

Jill Doubles Down
During her Houston appearance, Jill claimed that extremist Republicans want to “tear apart the fabric of our country.”
“I can’t believe that mainstream Republicans really want what the MAGA extremists want, either,” she said, according to The Houston Chronicle.
Jill ended her speech by bringing up the author and historian Heather Cox Richardson’s recent column about Martin Luther King Jr. in which she claimed that America has no heroes left. After telling the donors to think of their heroes, Jill recited a quote from King when he said he would choose to be alive in the present over any other time in history.
“He said, ‘I know that this country is in trouble. I know this nation is sick … Only through the darkness can you see the stars,’” Jill stated.
“We are sort of wading through this darkness, I think, of all the things that are going on with the division in our country,” she concluded. “I think in November, we’re gonna look up. We’re gonna see those stars. And we’re going to know who our heroes are.”

Earlier this month, Jill tried to brag about Joe’s “energy” and “vigor” when asked about growing concerns about his healt.
“He can do it,” Jill said in response, according to Daily Mail. “I see Joe every day. I see him out, you know, traveling around this country. I see his vigor. I see his energy. I see his passion every single day.”
In this same interview, Jill whined about Republicans going after her step-son Hunter Biden.
“I think what they are doing to Hunter is cruel,” she said, according to The Hill. “And I’m really proud of how Hunter has rebuilt his life after addiction.”
“You know, I love my son and it’s had — it’s hurt my grandchildren,” she added. “And that’s what I’m so concerned about, that it’s affecting their lives as well.”

Jill can attack Trump and Republicans all that she wants to, but it won’t change the fact that her husband is more unpopular than ever. Jill might want to start packing her bags now, because it is looking like she will be moving out of the White House at the end of this year!
