In an effort to keep Americans focused on the perceived failures of the previous administration rather than on voters' concerns about his own presidency, US President Donald Trump has invoked Joe Biden's name almost 900 times this year.
According to a Reuters review, Trump is keeping his predecessor at the center of debate as Republicans fight to hold their fragile grip on Congress in November's midterm elections.
Trump has made Biden, a Democrat, his political target on average three times a day across speeches, comments and Truth Social postings. He has blamed the former president for problems ranging from inflation and immigration to munitions shortages. These attacks come as the 83-year-old, who is battling Stage 4 cancer, has largely withdrawn from public life.
