TIL Desk/World/Washington/ US President Donald Trump asserted on Thursday that Democratic Party’s vice-presidential candidate Kamala Harris would replace Joe Biden as president within a month if he were elected and launched a vicious attack calling her a “monster” and a “communist”.
In an interview, he said: “She’s a communist. We’re going to have a communist (as president)? She’s going to be (president), in my opinion, within a month. Look, I sit next to Joe and I looked at Joe. Joe’s not lasting two months as president.”
Using a strong invective, he referred to her as “this monster that was onstage with Mike Pence, who destroyed her last night, by the way”.
Trump, who is recovering from Covid-19 at the White House after being released from a military hospital, spoke to interviewer Maria Bartiromo over telephone.
Pence and Harris conducted themselves with relative courtesy during the debate and the vice president, whose style is the opposite of Trump, avoided personal attacks on his rival.
