The schadenfreude edition: From ‘Broke Don’ to Bloomberg’s list of the world’s richest men

After campaign finance reports released last week showed former President Donald Trump lagging far behind President Joe Biden in February donations and end-of-month cash reserves, the Biden campaign sent an email to supporters titled, “Not a Winning Campaign: Broke Don Hides in Basement.” It read: “Trump can’t raise money, isn’t campaigning, and is letting convicts and conspiracy theorists run his campaign.”

Speaking to supporters in Houston the next day, Biden joked, “I know not everyone’s feeling enthusiasm. The other day a defeated man … came up to me and said, ‘Mr. President, I’m being crushed by debt. I’m completely wiped out.’ I had to say, ‘I’m sorry, Donald. I can’t help you.’”
