Trump filmed saying ‘broken down’ Biden has resigned: ‘It’s Kamala’

Donald Trump delivered a brutal assessment of Joe Biden’s performance against him in last week’s presidential debate, calling the president a “ruined pile of shit” on the verge of “leaving the race” in a video provided by a source to The Daily Beast.

“He just dropped out, you know, he’s dropping out of the race,” Trump said, sitting in a golf cart. “I took him out of the race, and that means we have Kamala.”

It is not immediately clear where or when exactly the footage was secretly filmed.

In the video, the former president asks the person holding the camera what she thought of his own performance in the debate. When told that she did something “fantastic” and “incredible,” Trump flatly responds: “Look at that old, crumbling pile of shit.”

“She’s a bad guy,” he said, apparently referring to Biden. After announcing that the president was resigning and handing over to Kamala, Trump continued: “I think she’ll be a better opponent” as well.

“She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic,” he said, tugging at his gloves.

Reached for comment Wednesday evening, Trump campaign spokesman Stephen Cheung referred The Daily Beast to a statement released earlier in the day about the “total collapse” of the Democratic Party.

Democrats panic over Biden-Donald Trump debate disaster

“Every Democrat who is calling on corrupt Joe Biden to resign was once a supporter of Biden and his failed policies that are leading to extreme inflation, an open border, and chaos at home and abroad,” read the statement, attributed to campaign advisers Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles.

“Make no mistake, Democrats, the mainstream media, and the swamp have colluded to hide the truth from the American public: Joe Biden is weak, a failure, dishonest, and unworthy of the White House,” the report continues. “Each of them has lied about Joe Biden’s cognitive state and supported his disastrous policies over the past four years, especially the sneering co-pilot Kamala Harris.”

The statement concludes that Trump “will beat any Democrat on November 5 because he has a proven track record and is focused on making America great again.”
