Former President Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president, told Breitbart News on a conference call with reporters on Tuesday afternoon that Vice President Kamala Harris will not “be too tough” to beat if she remains true to form as politically weak as she has been in the past.
Trump said in response that Harris’s failed 2020 presidential campaign proves how weak she is as a candidate.
Trump added during his answer that Harris was, during the 2020 primary debates, the “nastiest” of all the candidates to Biden himself.
“She was, by far, the nastiest to Joe Biden, and that’s why I was surprised that he took her. There was nobody nastier than her,” Trump said. “She played the race card at a level that you rarely see. She really was very nasty to him, and then he picked her — so I don’t get that exactly. Now they act like they’re great friends, but you don’t really recover from that. I wouldn’t recover easily from that. I wouldn’t have picked her.”
Trump continued by noting Harris’s reputation is for choking when she gets in the limelight and that America will be better off if she continues to fail under pressure yet again as the Democrat nominee for president in 2024. He also said he does not think, if she stays true to her failing form, she will be difficult to dispatch at the ballot box.
Earlier in the call, Trump said he considers Harris “much more radical” than even Biden.
“She’s the same as Biden but much more radical,” Trump said in response to Politico’s Alex Isenstadt during the question-and-answer portion. “This country doesn’t want a radical left person to destroy it. She’s far more open borders than he is. She wants things that nobody wants. You take a look at the car mandate — the electric car mandate, everything. Take a look at San Francisco now compared to before she became the district attorney, and you see what she’ll do to our country. I think she’ll be easier than Biden because he was slightly more mainstream but not by much.”
Trump also told Fox News’s Bill Melugin that he would debate Harris multiple times. It’s unclear if that debate would happen on ABC News, though, which was supposed to moderate a second debate between Trump and Biden in September, as Trump later told another reporter he only agreed to an ABC debate against Biden and has not agreed to anything against Harris at this stage.
