Joe Biden has long hoped to avoid a mudslinging with his opponent Trump and rarely mentioned his name. At the start of his election campaign, the incumbent president shows for the first time that he has mastered the art of attack as well as his predecessor.
For Joe Biden, Donald Trump has long been the one whose name must not be mentioned. Or so it seemed, as it was remarkable how the US president avoided mentioning his predecessor and rival. He talked about everything, about the economy, about infrastructure, about gun laws, about the border, sometimes about the weather or his family. He almost never talked about Trump, the elephant in the room.
