Trump rants about Biden and Harris in leaked video

Must read

Mr Trump has often smattered words such as “crap”, “ass” and “hell” throughout his speeches and campaign appearances in what strategists say is an attempt to appeal to everyday voters.

Secretly recorded footage has revealed his language in private is far more offensive, however. In 2016, a now infamous hot-mic moment surfaced in which he said he would grab women “by the p—-”.

Sarafina Chitika, a spokesperson for the Biden-Harris campaign, listed 21 reasons on social media arguing that Mr Trump was the one who was “bad”. 

Her list ranged from “taking away women’s rights” and “assaulting women” to the former president’s bankruptcy and felony charges, “not paying your taxes”, “telling people to inject bleach” and the “constant lying”.

She added: “What is bad is your golf game”.

Republicans launch attack ads against Kamala Harris

The release of the Trump video came as Republicans launched a campaign attacking the vice president who emerged in polls and in betting markets as a favourite to replace Mr Biden as the Democrats’ nominee.

Ms Harris also had backing on Wednesday from influential Democrats including congressman Jim Clydburn who said he would support her if Mr Biden stood aside.

In one advertisement released this week, Republicans poke fun at Ms Harris and question her competency.

One advert reads: “This November: Vote Republican. Stop Kamala.”

Another ad relentlessly mocks Ms Harris’s less than catchy slogan: “What will be, unburdened by what has been.”

Ms Harris has only ever publicly expressed loyalty to Mr Biden.

After meeting the president for lunch on Wednesday, she told CBS News: “Look, Joe Biden is our nominee. We beat Trump once, and we’re going to beat him again, period.”
