Throughout our nation’s history, the American people have always loved underdogs who find a way to fight and win against all odds. Donald Trump is no exception.

The sham election interference trial in New York City being conducted by President Joe Biden’s left-wing Democrat operatives in front of a biased judge is having unintended consequences that are benefitting former President Trump.

Despite being unconstitutionally gagged and having the deck stacked completely against him, the trial without a crime that is taking place in Manhattan is providing the American people an opportunity to see the stark contrast between Trump, the street fighter and tireless advocate, and Biden, the weak and ineffective coward, who can’t win fair and square.

Each and every day, voters observe the former president literally fighting for his life against a corrupt liberal establishment that will stop at nothing to ruin him, even if it means turning America into a banana republic in the process. Even with the 24-hour, relentless barrage of attacks coming from partisan prosecutors, political judges, Biden appointees, bureaucrats and an overtly partisan Trump-hating mainstream media, the unshakable Donald Trump stands tall taking on and disposing of any and all incoming assaults.

The American people are paying full attention and coming to realize that Trump is exactly the kind of steel-spine leader we need right now at this difficult time for our country at home and abroad.

At the same time, the unpopular sitting president with the failed agenda — Joe Biden — is free to campaign all over the country as he pleases. At campaign stops in battleground states, Biden can’t help himself, joking with the tiny, manufactured audiences that Trump “is busy right now.” As the sparse gathering of Trump haters politely laugh in response, you get the unmistakable feeling that no one is actually excited to be there — and that exposes the dynamic that Biden has created for himself to perfection.

So, with Trump “busy” and Biden’s allies in the media doing everything they can to prop up their rapidly fading candidate, the president should be making his case for another four years, surging in the polls, and cruising to re-election, right? Not so much.

As it turns out, Trump is turning the situation on its head and outmaneuvering the flat-footed Biden campaign. Trump is making the best of a bad situation — something every American family is doing under Biden — and making brilliant tactical campaign stops that create magic moments that Biden will never be able to emulate because they’re off the cuff, organic and heartfelt.

Whether it be at a Chick-fil-A in Atlanta, a bodega in Harlem, the funeral of a murdered heroic police officer on Long Island, a visit to the open southern border, or a rally with tens of thousands of supporters, Trump has a connection with voters that creates the type of excitement that infuriates run-of-the-mill career politicians like Biden.

And, as we’re all witnessing in real time, the Biden-fueled political trials of Trump are only hardening the bond and making the energy even more palpable for the former president. Trump should continue making these deft moves — doing things Biden simply doesn’t have the skills to pull off or just won’t try due to political calculations, like standing with American Jews and Israel against terrorism and intimidation.

Even with Donald Trump bogged down in court on account of Joe Biden’s Third World election interference operation, he’s challenging the opaque incumbent to agree to an aggressive debate schedule “anytime, anywhere, any place.” To date, team Biden has ducked the offer, despite all their built-in advantages and abundant free time.

Trump the transparent and accessible outsider would be wise to double down on the idea of more debates each morning when he addresses the media before heading into the courtroom to face the Soros-backed Democrat District Attorney Alvin Bragg and the conflicted judge who donated to President Biden.

When push comes to shove, the American people are smart and focused on what is really important and that is a big problem for Joe Biden. It’s no secret that people aren’t better off today than they were four years ago.

No matter how much concocted garbage they throw at Donald Trump, Biden’s failed policies have made things worse for hardworking families and nothing is going to change that fact.
