President Joe Biden slammed Trump supporters yet again at a Kamala Harris campaign event in Pennsylvania on Saturday, as he branded them 'the kind of guys you'd like to smack in the a**'
President Joe Biden slammed Trump supporters yet again as he branded them 'the kind of guys you'd like to smack in the a**.'
Biden, 81, clenched his teeth as he delivered the remark at a Kamala Harris campaign event in Pennsylvania on Saturday, days after he sparked outrage by also calling Trump supporters 'garbage.'
In his latest dressing down, Biden said Trump supporters were 'macho guys' who 'want another tax cut for the wealthy', before ranting 'when I was in Scranton we used to have a little trouble going down the plot.'
The line drew scattered laughter before Biden continued: 'I'm serious, these are the kind of guys you'd like to smack in the a**... by the way I'm serious.'
Biden's remark comes just days after he called Trump supporters 'garbage', amid reports that the Harris campaign has attempted to sideline the president and distance herself from him.
The repeat gaffes have seen some online even theorize that Biden is attempting to 'sabotage' Harris' candidacy due to the way he was allegedly forced from the race back in the summer.
Following his 'smack in the a**' comment, critics slammed his performance, with one saying on X that he was 'white-knuckling it' with each appearance.
'Does anyone know who runs this pathetic guy's presidency?' questioned another.
Another pointed to the president's repeat gaffes, saying: 'Biden calls me garbage one day then wants to smack my ass on another.'
Donald Trump seized on Biden's 'garbage' gaffe by campaigning in Wisconsin in a garbage truck amid outrage over the president's remark
It comes days after Biden overshadowed Harris' big 'closing argument' campaign event in DC by calling Trump supporters 'garbage' in an astonishing outburst.
The 81-year-old commander-in-chief's bombshell gaffe evoked memories of Hillary Clinton's infamous dismissal of Trump voters as 'deplorables' in 2016, which contributed to her shock defeat.
The president was weighing in after a comedian at Trump's Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday compared Puerto Rico to a 'floating island of garbage'.
Biden said: 'The only garbage I see floating out there is his (Trump's) supporters.'
The Trump campaign wasted no time in taking advantage of the gaffe, with the former president riding a MAGA garbage truck in an appearance in Wisconsin the following day.
'How
do you like my garbage truck? This truck is in honor of Kamala and Joe
Biden,' he told the waiting media while wearing an orange workman's
vest.
