Donald Trump offered a blunt assessment of Joe Biden, describing him as a "broken-down pile of crap" on the verge of "quitting the race" in a recently leaked video.

The clip, acquired by the Daily Beast, showcases the 78-year-old former president discussing the 2024 presidential campaign while sitting in a golf cart, holding cash, with his son Barron nearby. The video, taken after last week’s presidential debate, captures Trump’s candid commentary on the race.

In the video, Trump asked off-camera, “How did I do with the debate the other night?” He then predicted that Biden would not seek re-election, stating, “He just quit, you know – he’s quitting the race. I got him out of the – and that means we have Kamala.”

While the White House and many Democrats maintain that Biden will remain the nominee, recent polls reveal that he trails Trump by six points, with Vice President Kamala Harris potentially being a weaker candidate in November. Trump remarked in the video, “I think she’s gonna be better” as an opponent, but added, “She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic,” emphasising, “She’s so fucking bad.”

Biden’s campaign denied any intention of withdrawal, with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stating, “Absolutely not.” Several Democratic governors reiterated this stance, declaring Biden is "in it to win it."

The Trump campaign, though not directly commenting on the video, predicted a "total collapse" of the Democratic party following Biden’s lacklustre debate performance and growing calls for him to step aside.

The Biden-Harris campaign responded by labelling the video as another “rock bottom” for Trump, an attempt to deflect from Biden's struggles.

Trump also questioned Biden's capability to handle international leaders like Russia's Vladimir Putin and China's Xi Jinping. “Can you imagine that guy dealing with Putin? And the president of China – who’s a fierce person. He’s a fierce man, very tough guy. And they see him,” Trump commented, highlighting concerns about Biden’s foreign policy strength.
