Trump reacts to Biden dropping out of presidential race

Former President Donald Trump appears confident he will beat whoever the Democrats put up against him in the 2024 race after President Joe Biden announced he would not seek reelection.

"Crooked Joe Biden was not fit to run for President, and is certainly not fit to serve - And never was!" Trump said on Truth Social.

Trump went on to criticize President Biden for his handling of immigration, claiming the country is worst off under the current president. Following dozens of calls from congressional Democrats and major party donors to get out of the race, President Biden announced Sunday that he would step aside.

Trump Harris debates are gonna be so so awesome

[cinerama]

After that train wreck of a Debate....are we really surprised

[dyanaprajna]

He should follow suit, do this country a favor, and drop out as well. I'm tired of the "lesser of two evils" game. I want to actually feel good about someone to support. It won't happen, not in this corrupt country, but a guy can hope.

Can't wait to see Trump debate harris

[joelgonzales]

How to go from "81 million votes" to zero in less than four years.

Poor Trump this must have hit him really hard.😅😅😅

"He dropped out? I didn't even know that, you're telling me now for the first time."

[BlackGirlInADoggoneWorld]

I have been waiting since 2016 to see Trump debate Harris.

[karenhuff]

Trump's message of unity sure didn't last very long

[DianeW-gddl]

I'm looking forward to a new presidential debate.

"Giant Meteor 2024: Just End It Already!"

[williamlowe]

What about the money that doners gave him to run! He just proposed that he wasn't going anywhere! Is he going to return the money?

[greenerdayz]

Classless wow. Wasn’t he just claiming we need tone down the rhetoric and unite as a country? Yeah that talk lasted all but 10 seconds

[rodeanabean]

So much for unity! That lasted all one day!

[jaysonj]

"Generic Democrat nominee surges to huge lead over Trump." This coming week's "polling" headlines in the media, probably.

[maryschlueter]

Never heard anything so ungracious from someone who has been and would be President.

[paulab]

Is that the kinder, gentler Trump? Nah. Didn't think he would change at all.

[rickthomas]

Did not even mention Kamala Harris. Watch that be a theme.
