The rhetoric from the Left has gotten out of hand. They’ll say anything in order to help them win the election.
And Joe Biden mad a violent threat towards Donald Trump that dropped jaws.
In a fiery rally speech in Scranton, Pennsylvania, President Joe Biden sharply criticized former President Donald Trump, making headlines with a blunt characterization of his predecessor as someone “you’d like to smack in the a–.”
The inappropriate remark came during a rally for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, as Biden looked to secure support from union members in the final days of the 2024 campaign.’
Addressing the local carpenters’ union in his hometown, Biden rallied the crowd, many of whom cheered him on, as he described what he sees as the high stakes in the election.
“I know some of you guys are tempted to think he’s this macho guy … but, I’m serious, these are the kind of guys you’d like to smack in the a–,” Biden said, clenching his teeth and emphasizing his frustration with Trump’s policy agenda.
Biden’s comment came as part of a broader message about the importance of the election. “The stakes couldn’t be higher,” he told the enthusiastic crowd, explaining his commitment to labor rights and social safety nets, such as Social Security, which he claimed could be at risk under a Trump administration.
During the speech, Biden was briefly joined on stage by his granddaughter Natalie, adding a personal touch as he outlined what he views as the urgent policy contrasts between himself and Trump.
Biden took direct aim at the Republican agenda, alleging that Trump and his allies are looking to dismantle key legislative accomplishments, including the Affordable Care Act and the CHIPS Act.
The White House attributes the latter with generating 115,000 manufacturing jobs, a point Biden highlighted as he rallied the union members.
The president also expressed his frustration over Trump’s stance on Social Security, accusing Republicans of wanting to cut benefits to fund tax breaks for the wealthy.
Trump, however, has publicly denied any intent to reduce Social Security, stating that he would “never” take steps to compromise the program.
Biden’s tone has grown noticeably harsher toward Trump and his supporters as Election Day nears.
In recent weeks, he’s made a series of pointed remarks that have drawn significant attention.
Following a Trump rally at Madison Square Garden, where a comedian took jabs at Puerto Rico, Biden criticized Trump’s supporters as “garbage,” sparking backlash from the Trump campaign.

In a move to capitalize on the moment, Trump donned a garbageman’s neon vest and rode in a garbage truck at a Wisconsin rally the next day.

This sharp rhetoric isn’t new for Biden, who previously raised eyebrows in New Hampshire by suggesting that Trump should be locked up. He quickly tried walking back the comment, adding, “Politically, lock him up — lock him out, that’s what we’ve got to do,” in an attempt to clarify his position.
It’s probably best for Kamala Harris and her campaign if Joe Biden keeps his mouth shut before Election Day tomorrow. He continues to hurt her chances the more he speaks.
