Former President Trump has accused the Democratic Party of "taking away" President Biden's "right to run" for re-election and has slammed his new opponent, Kamala Harris, as the "least admired, least respected, and worst vice president in the history of our country."
Former President Trump has launched a scathing attack on President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, accusing the Democratic Party of robbing Biden of his "right to run" for re-election.
In a press conference at his Mar-a-Lago resort on Thursday, Trump blasted Biden's new opponent, Harris, as a "radical left person at a level that nobody's seen" and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, as a "radical left man that has positions that are not even possible to believe they exist."

Trump expressed his belief that Biden was forced out of the race by pressure from within the Democratic Party, saying, "The presidency was taken away from Joe Biden, and I'm no Biden fan." He also criticized the party for not holding a primary or allowing Biden to seek a vote from voters.
"Just to take it away from him like he was a child?" Trump said. "It is a very bad thing in terms of a country when you do that."

Trump also slammed Harris for her lack of engagement with the media, pointing out that she has not held a formal press conference or sat for a wide-ranging interview in the 18 days since she became the de facto Democratic nominee.
"She's not doing any news conference. You know why she's not doing it? Because she can't do a news conference. She doesn't know how to do a news conference," Trump said. "She's not smart enough to do a news conference."

Trump said he believes Biden regrets choosing Harris as his vice president. "He picked her and she turned on him, too. She was working with the people that wanted him out," he said.
Trump also expressed concerns about the constitutionality of Harris' nomination, saying, "It seems, seems to me actually unconstitutional. Perhaps it's not."

In response to Trump's accusations, the Democratic National Committee has defended its decision to nominate Harris, saying that she is a "qualified and capable leader" who will "fight for the American people." The party has also accused Trump of trying to distract from his own failed presidency.
The race between Trump and Harris is shaping up to be one of the most contentious in recent history. Both candidates have already begun trading barbs, and it is clear that neither side is willing to give an inch. It remains to be seen who will emerge victorious in the end, but one thing is for sure: this election is going to be a wild ride.
