Joe Biden Suggests Trump Talks Like He Should Be “Committed”

Joe Biden has spent the last several months laying out the reasons why it would be a terrible idea to give Donald Trump a second term in office—reasons that include everything from Trump’s assault on reproductive rights to his pledge to be a dictator only “on day one.” And on Wednesday, the president added another entry to the list: the fact that his opponent appears to have completely lost touch with reality.

Speaking to supporters at a fundraiser in San Francisco, Biden reportedly referred to Trump’s claim that he and Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny—who recently died in an Arctic penal colony—had suffered similar treatment, with the president remarking, “Some of the things that this fellow’s been saying, like he’s comparing himself to Navalny and saying that—because our country’s become a communist country, he was persecuted, just like Navalny was persecuted. I don’t know where the hell this comes from.” Biden added: “I mean, if I stood here 10, 15 years ago and said any of this, you’d all think I should be committed. It astounds me.”

At the same event, Biden called Russian president Vladimir Putin a “crazy SOB,” a comment the Kremlin apparently didn’t appreciate, with a spokesman responding, “Clearly, Mr. Biden behaves in the Hollywood cowboy style to serve internal political interests.”

Anyway, Biden wasn’t the only one who had thoughts to share re: Trump this week. On Wednesday, Florida governor Ron DeSantis told supporters that the ex-president accomplished almost nothing of note during his time in office, while New Hampshire governor Chris Sununu said Thursday that he’s optimistic about the future of the Republican Party—because Trump won’t rule it forever. “Let me put it a different way,” Sununu said. “Assholes come and go. But America is here to stay.”
