U.S. President Joe Biden intensifies his criticism of former President Donald Trump, accusing him of divisive tactics as the political rivalry heats up.
Joe Biden put on his rhetorical steel caps and gave Donald Trump a verbal shin-kick at a disability advocacy event in Chicago, accusing the former president of taking a “hatchet” to the Social Security Administration. It's the kind of language that makes campaign aides simultaneously cheer and reach for the fire extinguisher.
Biden didn’t hold back, painting Trump’s time in office as a dismantling project for the SSA—cutting staff, shredding morale, and leaving millions with slower services. He framed it as a gut-punch to vulnerable Americans, while Democrats eye Social Security as the next big election wedge. Trump’s camp, naturally, called it “fake news,” and the SSA jumped in to say no benefits were cut—because apparently, we’re in the era of fact-checking press releases in real-time.
But Biden’s message was clear: if Trump’s reelected, your paperwork might be processed by a chatbot with attitude and a four-year delay. Sources: AP News, 19 April 2025
