Republicans predict that if Biden is reelected, he will get us into a war with China over Taiwan
Republicans on Tuesday used an A.I.-generated video to paint a second Biden presidency as a time of war, dysfunction and civil unrest.
Within minutes of President Joe Biden announcing he was running for another term with a cry of, 'Let's finish this job,' the Republican National Committee illustrated what it thought that would look like.
'What if the weakest president we ever had were re-elected,' its attack ad asks, before answering the question.
It cuts to an image of a warplane in the sky, explosions in a foreign city and a warship at sea.
Images of burning buildings and troops in the street give way to protesters marching under the flag of the People's Republic of China.
The Republican National Committee released a video on Tuesday imagining how the U.S. and the world might look if President Joe Biden won a second term in 2024
The video underscores the point: 'What if international tensions escalate?'
Then it turns its attention to home: 'What if financial systems crumble?'
The video shows boarded up shopfronts, last seen during widespread social justice protests in 2020s, and what looks like the empty shell of a bank, while older men and women line up as if seeking to withdraw their savings.
'What if our border is gone,' it continues. 'What if crime worsens.'
It is all accompanied by the sort of imagery conjured by Tucker Carlson's worst nightmares, or in this case as imagined by AI.
Hordes of people assemble around the Golden Gate Bridge. National Guard troops line up in the streets.
Biden's announcement sets up a potential rerun of the 2020 election. With almost 18 months to go, Donald Trump is in poll position to secure the Republican nomination.
He was quick to attack Biden's record on Tuesday, hitting some of the same themes as the video.
The video uses artificial intelligence to depict boarded up store fronts, war in foreign lands and National Guard troops deployed at home to quell civil unrest
The video shows warplanes in the air and warships at sea, hinting at war over Taiwan
'What if international tensions escalate?' it asks in its nightmarish depiction
And at home, it shows troops on American streets as illegal immigration, crime and economic collapse trigger the breakdown of society
'Thanks to Joe Biden’s socialist spending calamity, American families are being decimated by the worst inflation in half a century. Banks are failing,' he said.
'Our currency is crashing and the dollar will soon no longer be the world standard, which will be our greatest defeat in over 200 years.'
He also slammed Biden's leadership on the world stage.
'Russia is teaming up with China. Iran is days away from a nuclear bomb—not even thinkable,' he said.
'Ukraine has been devastated by an invasion that would never, ever have happened if I was president—and Joe Biden has led us to the very brink of World War III.'
If Republicans want to portray a dystopian, war-torn future under Biden, Democrats will do the same for Trump, reminding voters how he tried to cling to power after losing the 2020 election and the way his supporters rampaged through the U.S. Capitol.
In his reelection announcement video, Biden did not need to use artificial intelligence to make the point.
It included actual footage of Trump supporters fighting with police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, as clouds of tear gas shrouded the Capitol building.
Both of the frontrunners face challenges as they compete for a second term.
Only half of Democrats, or 47 percent, think Biden should run again, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll last week.
An NBC poll found 48 percent of those who do not want Biden to run cite his age as a 'major' reason.
Joe Biden used footage from January 6 and abortion protests to finally announce he is running for President in 2024 alongside Kamala Harris
Trump also faces a string of challenges in his campaign for re-election.
Thirty-seven percent of Republicans say they do not want him to run.
Eighty-eight percent of Democrats oppose Trump, while 86 percent of Republicans oppose Biden.
Conservatives stepped up their attacks on Biden after his announcement.
"Why in the world is President Biden running for re-election? He has been an unmitigated disaster in the job,' said Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund chairman Jenny Beth Martin.
'Whether it’s his worst-in-40-years inflation; continued school closures; the out-of-control-and-about-to-get-worse border crisis; the Afghanistan withdrawal debacle; lawless executive actions like the vaccine mandate, the eviction moratorium, and the student loan debt payoff scam; or any of a host of other issues, Biden’s policies have hurt America and continue to hurt America.'
House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik added: 'Our country will not support another four years of Joe Biden's disastrous policies crushing hardworking American families.'
She expressed her support for Trump, whom she endorsed last year.
'Now
more than ever, our country needs Donald J. Trump and I will do
everything in my power to help elect him in 2024 as President of the
United States of America.'
