President Joe Biden dialed up his personal insults of Donald Trump on Tuesday, calling the presumptive Republican nominee a "loser" while making fun of his handling of the Covid pandemic. Biden got his jabs in during remarks at an annual awards gala in Washington for the Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies.
That other guy, that loser. I think hes having trouble," Biden said, without referring to Trump by name. The insult was met with laughter in the ballroom for an event honoring Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
Biden also knocked Trump on his handling of the Covid pandemic when he was in office four years ago. "Look, Ill never forget him lying about the pandemic, telling Americans to inject bleach into their skin," Biden said Tuesday. "I wonder if he did it. It might explain something." In 2020, Trump publicly mused about whether disinfectant could be effective in clearing the body of Covid by "injection."
Multiple aides and advisers recently told NBC News that Bidens increasing broadsides against Trump, targeting topics from his financial woes to his weight, have been part of a strategy steered by Biden himself.

know what to do or something along those lines. FQX must be betting their viewers have short memories,
that or they're helping them have short memories.

(783 posts)the rest of the campaign. It does bother me some though that hes pivoting to Trumps game.
In a perfect world, the President could stay above dirty fray.
But, winning is more important.
