Joe Biden calls Donald Trump a ‘loser’ in Democrats gala speech

As Donald Trump’s approval rating drops to just 30% — the lowest figure recorded in his second term — former President Joe Biden has called his successor a ‘loser.’

As Donald Trump’s approval rating drops to just 30% — the lowest figure recorded in his second term — former President Joe Biden has called his successor a ‘loser.’

While speaking at a Maryland Democrats gala this weekend, the former President launched an attack on Trump’s recent ‘vanity projects’ in the White House and the wider Washington, D.C. area.

For those unaware, during a time when confidence in the US economy has weakened even among Americans who generally approve of the President and voted for him, Trump has spent an extortionate amount on controversial construction works.

This includes his ‘East Wing Modernization Project,’ which will see the complete demolition and reconstruction of the White House East Wing.

The project involves replacing the historic 90,000-square-foot East Wing structure with a sprawling 1,000-capacity ballroom, and is expected to cost $400 million, if not more.

There’s also the botched Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on the National Mall, which earlier this month Trump claimed was bigger than the Empire State Building.

Ahead of the US’s 250th birthday on July 4, Trump was reported to have spent over $16 million on the landmark.

The President was later mocked and criticised when a young duckling was found dead in the pool after Trump’s ‘renovation’ saw employees pour hydrogen peroxide in the waters.

A former Olympic athlete was even arrested after touching the slime-filled pool.

David Hearn, 67, was checking out the pool, which, as Trump has boasted, was recently painted ‘American flag blue.’

But while there, Hearn noticed part of the blue liner had detached from the pool’s bottom.

After he reached into the water to see what it felt like, he was cuffed and charged with destruction of government property.
