On Wednesday evening, The Daily Beast released a report about a leaked video showing President Trump speaking disparagingly about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris while golfing after last Thursday’s debate.
The video has since gained widespread attention on social media.
Trump has maintained a subdued public presence as Biden’s campaign faces
In a brief video, Trump can be seen riding in a golf cart, seemingly handing out tips to caddies while discussing the debate with them. It appears his son Baron is accompanying him in the golf cart.
Trump: “How did I do with the debate the other night?”
Off camera: “Amazing” “Fantastic.”
Trump: “I kicked that old broken down pile of crap. Too bad. He just quit, you know. He’s quitting the race.
Off camera: “Is that right?”
Trump: “Yeah, I got him out. And that means you have Kamala. I think she’s gonna be better. She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic. She’s just so f***ing bad, so. Can you imagine that guy dealing with Putin and the president of China who’s a fierce person, who’s a fierce man, a very tough guy. When they (garbled recording). They just announced he’s probably quitting….Keep knocking ’em out. Thank you fellas.”

The Daily Beast said the Trump campaign pointed to a press release from earlier Wednesday when asked for comment about the video.
Trump Campaign Statement on the Total Collapse of the Democrat Party
“Every Democrat who is calling on Crooked Joe Biden to quit was once a supporter of Biden and his failed policies that lead to extreme inflation, an open border, and chaos at home and abroad. Make no mistake that Democrats, the main stream media, and the swamp colluded to hide the truth from the American public – Joe Biden is weak, failed, dishonest, and not fit for the White House. Every one of them has lied about Joe Biden’s cognitive state and supported his disastrous policies over the past four years, especially Cackling Copilot Kamala Harris.
President Trump will beat any Democrat on November 5th because he has a proven record and an agenda to Make America Great Again.”

Biden said on Wednesday in a conference call with campaign staff he is not quitting the race.At least three Democrat members of Congress have called on Biden to drop out of the race so far this week, as have several liberal newspapers including the New York Times.
