WASHINGTON: Former US president Donald Trump and incumbent president Joe Biden have fired shots at each other on several occasions in different ways on the 2024 presidential campaign trail.
However, Trump, 77, took the latest dig at Biden, 81, as he shared a compilation of his rival tripping at several different occasions along with a “Biden trip counter” on social media.
In an Instagram post, the Republic presidential candidate shared a clip to troll Biden for his age and did not accompany the post with a caption.Previously, Trump has taken a jibe at Biden’s age, urging him to take a cognitive test to seek reelection while boasting of having “aced” such a test twice himself after facing similar scrutiny of his age.
“Crooked Joe Biden must take a Cognitive Test. Maybe that way we would be able to find out why he makes such terrible decisions,” Trump posted on his Truth Social last month. “All Presidents, or people wanting to become President, should mandatorily take this test!” Although Trump’s post was caption-less, it may have been a response to Biden’s latest dig at his rival for bragging about winning not one but two “club championship” trophies at his own Florida golf club.
In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Biden wrote: “Congratulations, Donald. Quite the accomplishment.”
Lately, Trump is caught up in a whirlwind of legal battles including his New York civil fraud case where he is required by the court to pay a $175 million bond, reduced from the original $464 million bond which he was unable to pay.
