President Joe Biden addressed Russian President Vladimir Putin, former President Donald Trump, and discussed the possibility of nuclear war in impromptu comments during a San Francisco fundraiser on Wednesday evening.
During his speech, Biden also emphasized climate change as the most critical threat to humanity.
“We have a crazy SOB like that guy Putin and others, and we always have to worry about nuclear conflict,” Biden said
He criticized Trump and the current state of the Republican Party, claiming that conservatives are more problematic than the vocal racists he previously worked with in the Senate.
“I’ve served with real racists. I served with Strom Thurmond. I served with all these guys that have set terrible records on race. At least you could work with some of these guys. Time and again, the Republicans show they’re the party of chaos and the party of division.” he continued.
When Trump drew a comparison between himself and the late activist Alexei Navalny, who was imprisoned by Putin before his death, Biden expressed strong disapproval, in spite of Trump being targeted by the full might of the U.S. deep state.
“If I stood here 10, 15 years ago and said this, you all would have thought that I should be committed — it’s astounding,” Biden said.
