Dear Commons Community,
President Biden and Trump shared starkly different Easter messages yesterday.
Biden marked the holy day with a solemn message, while Trump lashed out at political opponents in an all-caps post on Truth Social. As reported by The Hill.
Trump went after the prosecutors organizing criminal cases against him, reiterating claims that federal special counsel Jack Smith is “deranged,” calling Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg “lazy” and lashing out against Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.
The former president also hurled insults at the Department of Justice and “crooked Joe,” in reference to the president.
Biden, a devout Catholic, marked Easter with reminders of the story of Jesus’s sacrifice and with blessings.
“Jill and I send our warmest wishes to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection,” the president said.
“As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’s sacrifice. We pray for one another and cherish the blessing of the dawn of new possibilities,” he continued. “And with wars and conflict taking a toll on innocent lives around the world, we renew our commitment to work for peace, security, and dignity for all people.”
Could there be anymore different human beings!
Tony
