USA (Washington Insider Magazine)—At the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), former President Donald Trump referred to himself as a “proud political dissident,” framing the 2024 presidential election as “judgment day.” Trump delivered an impassioned speech, criticizing President Joe Biden’s leadership and portraying himself as a savior for America’s future.
“For hardworking Americans, Nov. 5 will be our new liberation day,” Trump declared. He also claimed that Biden’s policies are leading the country toward ruin, warning of economic collapse, border crises, and social decay.
Trump’s CPAC appearance came as he celebrated a decisive win in the South Carolina Republican primary over Nikki Haley. Trump aims to secure the Republican nomination by March’s Super Tuesday contests.
Amid applause, Trump pledged to end Biden’s “corrupt reign” and described his campaign as a movement of “freedom” and “retribution.” However, Biden’s team dismissed Trump’s rhetoric, highlighting factual gains in the economy and crime reductions under Biden’s administration.
This year’s CPAC event mirrored Trump’s fiery style, with Republican figures amplifying his critiques of Biden’s border and economic policies while defending Trump’s ongoing legal battles. The 91 felony charges he faces, Trump insists, are politically motivated—a claim Biden’s camp denies.
As the 2024 election approaches, Trump continues to position himself as the ultimate protector of conservative values and freedom.
