President Biden took sharp aim at former President Trump in a rare interview, calling him a “loser” and confidently predicting he’d beat him in November, all while reminding the press of past predictions of his political demise.
“Losers who are losers are never graceful,” Biden said of Trump in a lengthy interview granted to the New Yorker‘s Evan Osnos, who penned a biography of the president that came out shortly before his 2020 election victory.
“I just think that he’ll do anything to try to win. If — and when — I win, I think he’ll contest it,” Biden continued. “No matter what the result is.”
Osnos claimed that Biden was sharp during his interview.
“For decades, there was a lightness about Joe Biden—a springy, mischievous energy that was hard not to like, even if it allowed some people to classify him as a lightweight,” Osnos wrote. “For better and worse, he is a more solemn figure now. His voice is thin and clotted, and his gestures have slowed, but, in our conversation, his mind seemed unchanged. He never bungled a name or a date.”
