Washington: If Democratic Presidential nominee Joe Biden wins the November 3 US Elections, his running mate Kamala Harris will take over as president in a month's time, President Donald Trump said on Thursday in a blistering attack on his poll rivals.
Vice President Mike Pence, 61, and Harris, 55, came face-to-face in the vice presidential debate on Wednesday, which saw sparring over Trump's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, jobs, China, racial tensions and climate change. Trump and Biden have separately lauded their deputies.
"I thought that wasn't even a contest last night. She was terrible. I don't think you could get worse. And totally unlikable. She's a Communist. She's left of (Senator) Bernie (Sanders). She's rated left of Bernie by everybody. She's a Communist, Trump told Fox News in an interview on Thursday.
We're going to have a Communist. Look, I sit next to Joe and I looked at Joe. Joe's not lasting two months as president. That's my opinion. He's not going to be lasting two months, Trump said, in his first interview after the vice presidential debate.
The interview, also the first after returning from a military hospital where he was treated for COVID-19, was over phone and lasted nearly an hour.
"She is a Communist. She's not a Socialist. She's well beyond a socialist. Take a look at her views. She wants to open up the borders to allow killers and murderers and rapists to pour into our country," Trump said in his sharpest attack against Harris.
