The kid-gloves are apparently off.
President Joe Biden called former President Donald Trump a "convicted felon" who "snapped" after the 2020 election at a campaign event Monday.
"For the first time in American history, a former president that is a convicted felon is now seeking the office of the presidency," Biden told the crowd at the fundraising event in Greenwich, Connecticut. "But as disturbing as that is, more damaging is the all-out assault Donald Trump is making on the American system of justice."
[...]
“It’s reckless, it’s dangerous, it’s irresponsible for anyone to say this was rigged just because they don’t like the verdict,” Biden told reporters at the White House last week.
[...]
"Something snapped in this guy for real" after the 2020 election, Biden said. "It’s literally driving him crazy."

And dollars to donuts, it’ll drive him even more crazy — once he realizes how Biden is pointing it out.
If the shoe were on the other foot, the Republican bloviators would be yelling “Felon, Felon, Felon” to the news cameras, at every chance. Hell, they call Biden stuff just as bad now — with no facts at all to back it up.
Trump-fans have given up “respect for the Office” a long time ago. Hmmm, I wonder where they learned that tacky tactic from?

PS.
Biden also called Trump "unhinged."
[...]
“This isn’t the same Trump that got elected in 2016,” Biden said. “He’s worse.”
[...]
“Something snapped in this guy — for real — when he lost in 2020,” Biden said, suggesting the former president was “unhinged” and was the driving force behind a mob of his supporters overrunning the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
“He can’t accept the fact that he lost, it’s literally driving him crazy,” Biden said. He added that the former president “wants to terminate the Constitution” and “says if he loses there will be a bloodbath in America.”
“What kind of man is this?” Biden asked.
