Trump-Biden: 1-0

Last week, while Trump was visiting Japan, he couldn’t resist calling Joe Biden, former vice-president and candidate to the 2020 presidential election, “a fool of low IQ” and listed off a series of embarrassing moments in Biden’s life, like the time he fell asleep during a speech by Barack Obama in 2011, or when he admitted to plagiarizing in school, back in 1987.

On Sunday, the same Trump tweeted that he had “confidence” that Kim Jong Un had “smiled when he called Swampman Joe Biden a low IQ individual, and worse.” The next day, during a press conference, alongside Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Trump re-served his diatribe, saying: “Kim Jong Un made a statement that Joe Biden is a low-IQ individual. He probably is, based on his record. I think I agree with him on that.”

It take a lot of guts, nastiness and a total lack of courtesy to endorse the North Korean murderer and dictator’s hateful insults of America’s former vice president, while standing next to the leader of a top American ally. Some people have said, “let Trump be Trump” or something of the sort, but we all should be outraged at this kind of behavior. I know, Americans are numbed by Trump misbehavior, but they have no excuse for it.

As for Biden, I don’t think he handle these nasty remark well by ignoring them. Had I been in his spot, I would have immediately called a press conference and ranted about the maniac that usurps his president’s role, and should have demanded that Trump immediately withdraw what he said and apologize to him.

Biden didn’t do it and this shows that he has no spine and won’t be able to joust against the Donald if he ever was to win the Democratic endorsement for president. He showed his total incompetence right there. There are many other reasons why I don’t support Biden, but this reason just happened to suddenly top my list.
