Biden alluded to Trump's performance—which consisted of sidestepping many of Collins' questions—in a tweet published shortly after the town hall ended.
"It's simple, folks. Do you want four more years of that? If you don't, pitch in to our campaign," Biden tweeted, accompanied by a link to a donations page for his reelection campaign.

Former President Donald Trump trails President Biden by two points in the 2024 popular vote despite the commander-in-chief’s lackluster approval rating and concerns about his advanced age, according to a new poll.
The Yahoo News/YouGov survey released on Wednesday found that 45% of voters said they would vote for Biden, 80, compared to 43% who said they would support Trump, 76, “if the election were held today.”
During a contentious CNN town hall Wednesday night, former US president Donald Trump dug in on his lies about the 2020 election, downplayed the violence on January 6, 2021, and repeatedly insulted the woman whom a civil jury this week found him liable of sexually abusing and defaming.
Trump, returning to the network after years of acrimony, also refused to say whether he wants Ukraine to win the war against Russian aggression and said the US “might as well” default on its debt obligation, despite the potentially devastating economic consequences.
"It's a witch hunt," Santos told a throng of reporters after departing the courthouse Wednesday afternoon. "It makes no sense that in four months, five months, I'm indicted. You have Joe Biden's entire family receiving deposits from nine family members receiving money from foreign destinations into their bank accounts."
Lisa Parshall, a political science professor at Daemen University, told Newsweek via email that Santos is following the Donald Trump script of "decrying any accountability as political persecution and engaging in whataboutism."

The most significant thing about Trump’s town hall wasn’t anything he said about the 2020 election, the Jan. 6 riot at the capitol or the federal jury that found him liable for sexual battery.
It was that on all of those issues, a roomful of Republicans and independents who intend to vote in New Hampshire’s Republican primary was siding with him.

Lying Long Island Rep. George Santos surrendered Wednesday as federal prosecutors revealed the charges against him — including that he embezzled $50,000 in campaign money to buy designer clothing and pay personal expenses.

"In regard to George Santos, he was already removed from all of his committees," House Majority Leader Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La., said during Wednesday's leadership press conference. "There is a legal process. The charges just came out, we just saw some of them this morning. And so, in America, there is a presumption of innocence, but they're serious charges. He's going to have to go through the legal process."
Interesting observation: They hold the above only for Republicans especially not if your name is Biden or Clinton
Eight of these charges — five of the wire fraud counts and three counts of money laundering — are connected with the now-congressman allegedly directing someone in October 2022 to falsely tell potential donors that their funds would be used to buy television advertisements for Santos’s campaign.

The Justice Department unsealed a 13-count indictment Wednesday morning that detailed the variety of ways Santos used his brief political rise to dupe taxpayers and donors—an eagerly awaited law enforcement action that followed months of investigative news reports about his wide ranging fraudster lifestyle.

The Justice Department on Wednesday unsealed 13 federal charges against Rep. George Santos and the New York Republican is in custody, a spokesperson for the Eastern District of New York said. Santos has been charged on seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds and two counts of making materially false statements to the US House of Representatives.
He died a month later, on the eve of the Shabbat when the weekly Torah portion includes the Jewish legal prohibition on homosexual intercourse, calling it an “abomination.”
“I do resent anyone that is trying to make this about him being gay,” the source said. “It’s the chicken or the egg situation. Did being gay in the Orthodox community make his depression more triggering, or was it that he was depressed, and felt alone, which made being gay so much harder?” Even his closest friends say it’s impossible to untangle those forces.
Staffers who worked in Donald Trump's White House have accused him of sexual harassment after a jury on Tuesday found the former president liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll.
No charges were ever laid, and the complainant did not go to the police, although Rabbi Emanuel points out that it is the rabbinical council’s policy these days to direct victims of assault to go to the authorities.
