Trump trashes ‘broken down pile of crap’ Biden in viral video

Article content

Donald Trump is having a field day watching from the sidelines as the Democrats reel from the fallout over Joe Biden’s disastrous debate night performance.

In a video clip, obtained by the Daily Beast and shared to X,  the 78-year-old presumptive Republican presidential nominee is seen sitting in a golf cart as he brutally dismisses Biden’s chances of re-election this fall.

Trump, who was filmed behind the wheel as his son Baron rode shotgun, is brandishing a wad of cash as he asks a bunch of onlookers, “How did I do with the debate the other night?”

After the group praised Trump, the former president went off on Biden and his vice president, Kamala Harris.

“We kicked that old, broken down pile of crap,” Trump said assessing his victory over his rival. “He’s a bad guy.”

Trump said Biden fared so badly that he’s likely going to drop out of the race.

“He just quit, you know — he’s quitting the race,” Trump continued. “I got him out — and that means we have Kamala.”

The businessman admitted Harris is “going to be better,” but also criticized her.

“She’s so bad,” he said. “She’s so pathetic. She’s so f—ing bad.” 

Trump then returned back to knocking Biden, saying, “Can you imagine that guy dealing with (Russian President Vladimir) Putin? And the president of China — who’s a fierce person. He’s a fierce man, very tough guy.”

Before racing off in his cart, Trump fired off one last missive. “They just announced he’s probably quitting. Just keep knocking him out, huh?”

Trump shared a clip of the interaction on his Truth Social account with the caption: “NO TAX ON TIPS!”

As the video made the rounds, Trump’s campaign officials Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles released a statement on his official website referencing the “Total Collapse of the Democrat Party.”  

“Every Democrat who is calling on Crooked Joe Biden to quit was once a supporter of Biden and his failed policies that lead to extreme inflation, an open border, and chaos at home and abroad. Make no mistake that Democrats, the main stream media, and the swamp colluded to hide the truth from the American public – Joe Biden is weak, failed, dishonest, and not fit for the White House. Every one of them has lied about Joe Biden’s cognitive state and supported his disastrous policies over the past four years, especially Cackling Copilot Kamala Harris,” the message read.

Trump’s statement also went on to predict the former president will trounce any other candidate the Democrats may tap to take Biden’s place because he has “a proven record and an agenda to Make America Great Again.”

So far, the clip has amassed tens of millions of views on X and comes after a bombshell report in the New York Times that hinted Biden, 81, has privately conceded to key allies that he may ditch his re-election bid.

Biden will attempt to quell fears over his electability by participating in an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that is scheduled to air Friday. He’ll also make public appearances at campaign in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

But the chorus demanding he step down is becoming more vociferous.

In an email obtained by the New York Times, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, a prominent Democratic donor, reportedly wrote that Biden needs to leave the race and the Democratic Party needs to find another candidate to take on Trump.

“Biden needs to step aside to allow a vigorous Democratic leader to beat Trump and keep us safe and prosperous,” Hastings wrote.

Damon Lindelof, who is best known for creating the TV hit Lost, also spoke out against the president in an op-ed that appeared in Deadline. “Our president’s debate performance has been characterized in many ways; disappointing, upsetting, terrifying… but for me it was simply game-changing,” he wrote.

Despite calls for him to leave, Biden said he is determined to stick around and debate Trump again in September.

During an interview with The Earl Ingram Show set to air on the Fourth of July, Biden admits he  “screwed up,” but pointed to his record in office.

“That’s 90 minutes on stage. Look at what I’ve done in 3.5 years,” he said.

In a call with campaign staff on Wednesday, the Times reported that Biden sounded upbeat when he spoke alongside Vice President Harris.

“No one’s pushing me out,” Biden said in the call. “I’m not leaving.”

“We will not back down. We will follow our president’s lead. We will fight, and we will win,” Harris added.
