USA - "A derelict pile of crap": Trump takes a nasty swipe at Biden
Donald Trump taunts Joe Biden
Did Donald Trump know he was being filmed? Probably not, as Trump was likely indifferent. After all, a man known for choosing his words carefully is he. However, a video published by the US site "The Daily Beast" shows the former US President sitting on a golf cart and mocking his successor Joe Biden. Trump calls Biden a "disgusting pile of shit." Biden is on the brink of dropping out of the presidential race, Trump claims. "I took him out of the race – and that means we have Kamala," Trump says.
On the other hand, Trump gushes about Chinese leader Xi Jinping and calls him "a wild man, a very tough guy," suggesting that Biden may not be able to handle him. "He's a bad guy," Trump says, apparently referring to Biden. After announcing that the President is quitting and transferring power to Kamala Harris, Trump continues: "I think she'll make a better opponent" and adds: "She's that bad. She's pathetic."
Donald Trump continues to taunt Joe Biden
Then Trump returns to talking about Biden: "But they've just announced that he might be dropping out," Trump says. "Just keep hammering away at him, huh?" The video ends shortly thereafter.
US President Joe Biden is fighting to save his candidacy after his TV debacle against challenger Donald Trump on all fronts. "I had a bad night. And the fact is, I made a mistake," Biden said in a radio interview. Whether Biden's apology will be enough to quell the dissent within the Democratic ranks remains to be seen in the coming days. Despite Biden's weak performance, the judgment within his party on him should be significantly milder than that of Donald Trump.
