Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris is a “third-rate phoney candidate” and “more incompetent” than her boss President Joe Biden, her Republican rival in the November election, Donald Trump, has said.
In a much-anticipated audio-only interview with billionaire tech magnate Elon Musk on Monday on his social media platform X which was delayed by more than 40 minutes due to technical difficulties, the 78-year-old former president said, “She is a radical left lunatic,” as he alleged that “she wants to be more Trump than Trump”.
Launching a scathing attack on the 59-year-old US Vice President, Trump described Harris as a “third-rate phoney candidate.” He reiterated his allegation that Biden being replaced by Harris as a presidential candidate of the Democratic party was a coup.
Musk agreed with the former president and said, “Her behaviour is far left.”
“She (Harris) had three and a half years, and by the way, they have another five months that they can do something. But they won’t do anything. It’s all talk,” Trump said.
“She’s incompetent, and he (Biden) is incompetent. And frankly, I think that she’s more incompetent than he is, and that’s saying something because he’s not too good,” he said.
