Video has leaked of former president Donald J. Trump trashing Joe Biden as an “old broken down pile of crap,” saying he is already “out of the race” after being crushed in last week’s presidential debate.
“I got him out of there,” Trump tells supporters while sitting in a golf cart. “And that means we have Kamala [Harris],” he said, predicting she would be “better” for his reelection prospects.
“She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic. She’s just so f***ing bad,” he says.
“Can you imagine [Biden] dealing with Putin and the President of China, who’s a fierce person? He’s a fierce man, very tough guy,” he adds.
The Biden-Harris campaign seized on these remarks, sharing them on social media—with Trump’s assessment of Biden as an “old broken down pile of crap” and Harris as “pathetic” carefully edited out—and claiming he was “praising” the Russian and Chinese leaders.
In fact, Trump was clearly stressing that Biden is incapable of outmaneuvering them as U.S. adversaries due to his impaired mental state.
Trump shared the video, which shows him handing money to the people he is speaking to, on Truth Social, with the caption “NO TAX ON TIPS!”
The former president has pledged to abolish taxes on gratuities to help service workers.
