Democratic presidential nominee and former Vice President Joe Biden mocked Donald Trump, saying that he “can hardly wait” to debate the erratic president and jabbed Trump’s previous comments calling himself a “very stable genius.”
“I can hardly wait. I can hardly wait to deal with what he refers to himself as — a stable genius. I can hardly wait to debate him,” Biden said during an interview with NBC affiliate WBRE in Pennsylvania Thursday.
Biden also slammed Trump for dismissing the guidelines that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released over several weeks and said that the agency was “asking schools to do very impractical things.”
“The president does not believe in science. Look what’s happening right this minute. He’s gone back to the Centers for Disease Control talking about school openings. He said, ‘you’re being too strict. Don’t have those standards. We want other standards.’ He doesn’t listen to the science, wearing this mask, social distancing, making sure that you in fact invest in people being able to open up safely,” Biden said.
“He’s done none of that. None of it. This is a guy who said it’s going to go away. It’s going to be like magic,” Biden continued.
Watch:
Biden’s campaign last month committed to participate in three debates in the fall, despite Trump’s campaign previously pushing for four events.
Some Biden followers are asking the former Vice President to demand Trump releases his Tax return as a condition for the debates.
