axios.com/2024/03/18/biden-trump-bloodbath-2024-campaign
Quick Glance: Trump Defends 'Bloodbath' Comment and Claims Critics, Media Misinterpreted
- Former President Donald Trump accused the media and Democrats of misconstruing his warning of a 'bloodbath' if he loses the election to President Joe Biden - emphasizing he was speaking about the fate of the auto industry, rather than threatening political violence, as his political adversaries and some pundits have suggested.
- Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday that 'the Fake News Media, and their Democrat Partners in the destruction of our Nation . . . fully understood' he was referencing the auto industry when he told a crowd in Dayton, Ohio, over the weekend: 'if I don't get elected it's going to be a bloodbath for the whole—that's gonna be the least of it.' But some went further, with Biden's re-election campaign calling Trump 'a loser who . . . doubles down on his threats of political violence' in a statement in response to Trump's use of the word.
- Trump expanded on his statements on Truth Social Monday, alleging that 'imports allowed by Crooked Joe Biden' are 'killing the automobile industry' while targeting the president's push for more electric vehicle manufacturing in an appeal to auto workers concerned about job loss from the transition to EVs.
- Former Vice President Mike Pence, who said last week he would not endorse Trump's 2024 bid, defended Trump's 'bloodbath' comments in a CBS interview on Sunday, stating that 'the president was clearly talking about the impact of imports devastating the American automotive industry.'

Quick Glance: Special Prosecutor Steps Back from Trump's Georgia Case
- Special prosecutor Nathan Wade formally withdrew from the Georgia election interference case against Donald Trump after a judge ruled he had to leave for Fani Willis to continue pursuing charges.
- Trump's team claimed the case was an effort to damage his campaign to reclaim the White House in November. Trump denied any wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty.
- In a separate criminal case against Trump in New York, a judge agreed to delay the trial related to hush-money payments during Trump's 2016 campaign until at least mid-April.
- Friday's events underscored how the case, which began with allegations of a former president trying to undermine the will of the voters, became consumed by the love lives of its top prosecutors. Judge McAfee found that Willis did not benefit personally from her relationship with Wade, but there remained an 'odor of mendacity.'

Quick Glance: Trump Trails Biden in Fundraising Amid Legal Bill Challenges
- President Biden's campaign maintains a significant financial edge over Donald Trump, who faces the challenges of fundraising for his potential return to office and settling his increasing legal bills seven months before the general election.
- Federal Election Commission reports revealed Biden's clear financial advantage over Trump, with Biden having $71 million in cash on hand compared to Trump's $33.5 million - more than double his rival's reserves.
- The reports highlight how Trump's legal issues are straining his campaign. Save America, the PAC used by the Trump campaign to cover legal expenses, spent more than it raised in February, with the majority of funds going towards legal costs.
- While trailing Trump in early polls, Biden's campaign and allied groups are surpassing Trump's fundraising efforts and the cash amassed for the general election.
