Donald Trump caught insulting Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in leaked video

Donald Trump gave a blunt assessment of Joe Biden, describing him as a “ruined pile of shit” on the verge of “quitting the race” in a newly leaked video.

The video, acquired by The Daily Beast, shows the 78-year-old former president discussing the 2024 presidential campaign while sitting in a golf cart, holding cash, with his son Barron nearby. The video, taken after last week’s presidential debate, captures Trump’s candid comments on the race.

In the video, Trump asks off-camera, “How did I do in the debate the other night?” He then predicts that Biden will not run again, saying, “He just dropped out, you know, he’s dropping out of the race. I took him out of the race, and that means we have Kamala.”

While the White House and many Democrats maintain that Biden will remain the nominee, recent polls show him trailing Trump by six points, with Vice President Kamala Harris potentially a weaker contender in November. Trump said in the video, “I think she’ll be better” as an opponent, but added, “She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic,” emphasizing, “She’s so bad.”

Biden’s campaign has denied any intention of withdrawing, with White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre saying, “Absolutely not.” Several Democratic governors have reiterated that position, saying Biden is “in it to win.”

Trump’s campaign, while not directly commenting on the video, predicted a “total collapse” of the Democratic Party following Biden’s lackluster performance in the debates and growing calls for him to step down.

The Biden-Harris campaign responded by calling the video another “rock bottom” for Trump, an attempt to distract from Biden’s struggles.

Trump also questioned Biden’s ability to handle world leaders like Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping. “Can you imagine this guy dealing with Putin? And the president of China, who is a fierce person. He’s a fierce man, a very tough guy. And they see it,” Trump said, underscoring concerns about Biden’s foreign policy strength.
