Biden And Trump Spend 5 Minutes Accusing Each Other of Being the ‘Worst President In History’

 

President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump spent several minutes during their Thursday night debate on CNN accusing each other of being the worst president in history.

“In your second term, what would you do to make childcare more affordable?” asked moderator Jake Tapper.

Trump ignored the question and replied, “Just to go back, the general got fired because he was no good, and if he said that, that’s why he made it up. But we have 19 people that said, I didn’t say it and they’re very highly respected, much more so than him. The other thing is. He doesn’t fire people. He never fired people.”

Trump continued digging into Biden, saying, “As you and I sit up here and waste a lot of time on this debate. This shouldn’t be a debate. He is the worst president he just said about me because I said it. But look, he’s the worst president in the history of our country. He’s destroyed our country.”

“Now all of a sudden, he’s trying to get a little tough on the border. He come out, came out with a a nothing, a nothing deal. And it reduced it a little bit, a little bit like this much. It’s insignificant. He wants open borders. He wants our country to either be destroyed or he wants to pick up those people as voters. And I don’t think we just can’t let it happen. If he wins this election, our country doesn’t have a chance, not even a chance of coming out of this rut. We probably won’t have a country left anymore. That’s how bad it is. He’s the worst in history by far,” Trump concluded.

“Thank you, President Trump. President Biden” asked the moderator.

Biden replied, “We are the most admired country in the world. We’re the United States of America. There’s nothing beyond our capacity. We have the finest military in the history of the world, the finest in the history of the world. No one thinks we’re weak.” Biden added:

No one wants to screw around with us. Nobody. Number one. Number two, the idea that we’re talking about worst presidents, I wasn’t joking. Look it up. Go online 159 or some 58. Don’t hold me the exact number. Presidential historians, they’ve had meetings and they voted. Who’s the worst president in American history? Best to worst. They said he was the worst in all of American history. That’s a fact. That’s not that’s not conjecture. He can argue they’re wrong, but that’s what they voted. The idea that he is no in doing anything to deal with child care, he did very for virtually nothing to child care.

“President Trump, the question was about what would you do to make child care more affordable?” Tapper pushed Trump for an answer.

“Just so you understand we have polling, we have other things that they rate them the worst because what he’s done is so bad and they rated me. I’ll show you. I watched you and they rated me one of the best. Okay? And if I’m given another four years, I will be the best. I think I’ll be the best,” Trump replied.
