President Donald Trump on Thursday morning used his Twitter platform to respond to criticism from former Vice President Joe Biden over Trump’s treatment of women.

Trump called Biden “crazy” and claimed he would win if the two got in a fight.

“Crazy Joe Biden is trying to act like a tough guy,” Trump tweeted just after 6 a.m. EST Thursday. “Actually he is weak, both mentally and physically, and yet he threatens me, for the second time, with physical assault. He doesn’t know me, but he would go down fast and hard, crying all the way. Don’t threaten people Joe!”

Trump was likely irked by Biden’s comments at a anti-sexual assault rally at the University of Miami on Tuesday, where he said if he and Trump were in high school together, he would “take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him” for the way he has talked about women in the past. He specifically referenced Trump’s crude remarks in the now-famous “Access Hollywood” tape.

Biden has made similar comments about Trump in the past. During a campaign rally for former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016, he said the press always asks him if he wishes he were the one debating Trump.

“No I wish we were in high school. I could take him behind the gym. That’s what I wish,” he said at the time.

Biden made combatting sexual assault on college campuses a staple of his vice presidency and launched the “It’s On Us” campaign to push for reform.

Multiple women have accused Trump of sexual harassment or assault, claims the President has denied.

  1. Biden would kick you in the nuts so hard you would choke on them you great fat flaccid turd.
    You have never been in a fight in your life

  2. My money is on Trump.
    First of all, he’s much bigger than Biden.
    Second, I’m pretty sure he has very recent experience beating people up.
    Now, Mueller vs. Trump would be a pay-per-view for the ages.

  3. Oh, cheez, back to second grade playground antics.

    Joe pulled his chain and Chatty Donnie blabbered as expected. Joe is probably rolling on the floor laughing his a$$ off!

    (The only way Biden would “go down fast and hard” would be if Donnie sent in his thug Keith Schiller as a substitute. Donnie would plead “bone spurs”…)

    Pssst Don,

    Did you know that the Cambridge Analytica guys are telling folks that they are why you are president? They claim they came up with and gave you your slogans, figured out where you should hold ralleys, got the vote out for you in the swing states. You should check it out - the whole world is watching the 3 videos about them. It makes you look weak. I thought you might want to know because Fox isn’t going to tell you, nor are your aides or your family (especially not Jared). You should really check it out. It’s riveting tv - especially that third episode.

    We’ll wait for that twitter storm. It should be epic.

    Donnie needs it to be staged for him to win - like the ‘fight’ with Vince McMahon. He’s all kitzch and no saddle.
