Donald Trump attacks ‘sleepy’ Joe Biden after POTUS’ credibility was questioned amid the coronavirus outbreak

Donald Trump just attacked Joe Biden again after his credibility was questioned during a coronavirus press conference this week.

The reporter informed the POTUS that a lot of Americans are questioning his credibility based on how he has been handling the pandemic. Instead of apologizing for his initial mistake, the president claimed that 95 percent of Republicans are still backing him and that’s what’s most important.

“I see that they’re very high. 95 percent of the Republican Party backs [me]. We just had a poll that was done by a very reputable group where I’m beating sleepy Joe Biden by a lot in the state of Florida. And in other states. So, I don’t really know who you’re talking about,” the POTUS said.

According to Political Flare, Trump shouldn’t be happy with the 95 percent of Republicans that are backing him. This is because Republicans only constitute 40 to 45 percent of Americans. Democrats, on the other hand, make up 60 percent of the US population.

“More obviously problematic is that he doesn’t care about Americans who aren’t Republicans. Never has. And it exposes the utter bullshit within his calls for unity and non-politicization of this danger,” journalist Jason Miciak said.

Meanwhile, Trump has been calling Biden “sleepy Joe Biden” in an attempt to suggest that the Democratic presidential candidate has low energy. In April 2019, he welcomed Biden to the presidential race with an offensive tweet.

“Welcome to the race, Sleepy Joe. I only hope you have the intelligence, long in-doubt, to wage a successful primary campaign. It will be nasty – you will be dealing with people who truly have some very sick and demented ideas. But if you make it, I will see you at the starting gate,” he wrote.

Seven months later, Biden fired back by giving Trump a nickname of his own.

“In one year, we will give Trump a nickname of his own: Former President Donald Trump,” Biden tweeted.
