FIRST ON FOX: President Biden's re-election campaign is attempting to set the narrative surrounding former President Trump's business experience as the latter preps to sway leaders of the nation's top companies during an event with major CEOs later Thursday. Fox Business host Larry Kudlow will interview Trump before nearly 100 CEOs at the highly anticipated Business Roundtable event in Washington, D.C.
Donald Trump couldn’t run a lemonade stand, let alone our country. He is a fraud, a crook, and a failed businessman and president who left America in economic ruin,' Biden campaign spokesperson James Singer told Fox News Digital ahead of the event. 'Donald Trump’s chaos hurt workers, small businesses, and families across America.
In arguing for Biden as an alternative to Trump, the campaign pointed to the unemployment rate being at near-historic lows and rising wages, although real wages do remain lower than when the president took office. The campaign cited lower inflation rates, which are down from historic highs earlier in his presidency, and a reduction in overall violent crime rates across the country.
President Trump built a billion-dollar real estate empire and employed thousands of people before creating the greatest economy in history as the 45th President of the United States with no inflation, cheap gas, and record-low unemployment, interest, and mortgage rates,' she said.
