Appears on former Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson’s show where he takes digs at President Joe Biden and Harris
Washington: Taking a jab at Indian-American Vice President Kamala Harris’ accent, saying she “speaks in rhyme”, former US President Donald Trump said that he does not see her as a presidential candidate for Democrats, an IANS report in The Tribune, Chandigarh says.
Trump appeared on former Fox News presenter Tucker Carlson’s show where he took digs at President Joe Biden and Harris. Meanwhile his Republican rivals engaged in a war of words at the first presidential primary debate in Milwaukee on Wednesday, August 24
Asked about the chances of Harris becoming the candidate for Democrats in the next Presidential election, Trump said that “this is not a president of the United States future”.
“Well, not really… She (Harris) has some bad moments. Her moments are almost as bad as it is. I think his (Biden) is worse, actually. Yeah. She speaks in, in rhyme. And, it’s weird, but she has bad moments,” Trump told Carlson.
“Well, the way she talks… the bus will go here and then the bus will go there because that’s what buses do. And it’s weird. The whole thing is weird. This is not a president of the United States future. And, I think they probably have some kind of a primary and other people will get involved,” he said in a pre-recorded interview, which was posted on X just minutes before the Republican primary debate was aired on Thursday evening.
As for Biden, Trump told Carlson that he is “worse mentally than physically”.
In the past, Trump’s Republican rival Nikki Haley mocked Biden, saying it’s unlikely he will “make it until 86 years-old”, adding that a vote on Biden is a vote on Harris.
Donald Trump back on social media with mug shot post
Another report says Trump has marked his return to social media site X, formerly known as Twitter, with a post on Thursday, August 24, from Fulton County Jail in Georgia earlier in the day.
With his post, an appeal for donations, Trump reclaimed direct access to the public on the platform that banned him following the January 6, 2021, attack on Congress by his supporters.
Trump, who had over 88 million followers when Twitter banned him, posted a photo on Thursday of the mug shot with the words: “ELECTION INTERFERENCE! NEVER SURRENDER!”
Twitter permanently suspended Trump’s account in January 2021, citing the risk of further incitement of violence following the storming of the US Capitol.
