The Washington Examiner’s Byron York argued that the Biden campaign recruiting actor Robert De Niro marked a “huge change” for President Joe Biden’s 2024 campaign strategy, specifically in how he approaches former President Donald Trump’s legal battles.

York explained that the atmosphere outside the courthouse of Trump’s legal fight in Manhattan had not been considered “a big circus” until De Niro’s press conference was drowned out by Trump supporters on Tuesday. He added that before Tuesday, Biden had distanced himself from the trial.
