Joe Biden is set to appear on CNN Tuesday night for an interview with Chris Cuomo, and it looks like the former vice president did not hold back in his criticism of the current administration.

After remarking on President Donald Trump’s unprecedented attacks on the FBI — which Biden said is “doing everything that Putin ever wanted,” by “sowing doubt about whether or not our justice system is fair, sowing doubt about whether or not there is anything remotely consistent with our constitution.

“It’s just a disaster,” he added.

Biden also said that Trump should avoid sitting down with special counsel Robert Mueller — who is leading the investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia — quipping that “the president has some difficulty with precision.”

Cuomo also asked Biden what he thought of Trump’s remark, apparently said in jest, that the Democrats are “treasonous” for not applauding him enough at the State of the Union.

The CNN anchor noted that the White House has said that the outraged response to the remark proved the “Democrats can’t take a joke.”

“Well, let me tell you, he’s a joke,” Biden shot back.
