Trump Reacts to Biden 2024 Exit, Calling Him ‘Worst President’ and Claims Harris Will be Easier to Beat

After Joe Biden announced on Sunday he will bow out of the 2024 presidential election, Donald Trump claimed the Democrat will go “down as the single worst president by far in the history of our country” in an interview.

The Democrats have not yet named a replacement at the top of the ticket, but Trump said in an interview he believes that Vice-President Kamala Harris will be easier to defeat than Biden.

The former president elaborated in a post on Truth Social, arguing Biden “was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve.”
“We will suffer greatly because of his presidency, but we will remedy the damage he has done very quickly,” Trump added.

Donald Trump Jr took a similar tack.

“Kamala Harris owns the entire leftwing policy record of Joe Biden,” he wrote in a post on X on Sunday. “The only difference is that she is even more liberal and less competent than Joe, which is really saying something. She was put in charge of the border and we saw the worst invasion of illegals in our history!!!”
Elon Musk, who announced this month he plans on giving $45m per month to a pro-Trump political action committee, celebrated the decision.

“I believe in an America that maximizes individual freedom and merit,” he wrote on X. “That used to be the Democratic Party, but now the pendulum has swung to the Republican Party.”
Recent polls have offered mixed predictions about a hypothetical match-up between Harris and Trump.
A YouGov poll in mid-July found her trailing Trump by five points, a larger gap than Biden, while an Ispsos poll showed her tied with the Republican.
