Former President Donald Trump said during a campaign rally on Wednesday night in Charlotte, North Carolina, that he had officially defeated President Joe Biden and that he was moving on to his “new victim to defeat, Lyin’ Kamala Harris.”

Trump’s comments come after Biden announced over the weekend that he was ending his presidential campaign and endorsing Harris to become the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee.

“As you know, three days ago, we officially defeated the worst president in the history of our country, Crooked Joe Biden,” Trump said at the rally. “He quit because he was losing so badly in the polls. He was down in every single poll and down by a lot, so he quit. But really what happened was the leaders of the Democrat Party, in a very undemocratic move, the bosses, they said, ‘Either you get out or we’re going to throw you out using the 25th Amendment.’ That’s what happened, you know that.”

“These are nasty people, the Democrats, so we better beat them or we’re not going to have a country left,” he continued. “So now we have a new victim to defeat, Lyin’ Kamala Harris.”

Trump highlighted her disastrous record as vice president, her rating as the most far-Left U.S. Senator, and her historically low poll numbers.

“The most incompetent and far-Left vice president in American history. By the way, they did a poll, she was rated the worst vice president in history,” he said. “Together, we will win North Carolina in an epic landslide, we are way ahead in the polls. And we will take back that beautiful White House and we will very simply Make American Great Again.”

President Joe Biden’s mental health has drastically declined and the president is well into the “sunset period of his life,” according to Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro.

Shapiro made the pronouncement after Biden delivered an 11-minute televised address on his decision to drop out of the 2024 race after the Democratic primary contests, but before the Democratic National Convention.

“He could not make it through that 11-minute televised speech right there. He could not make it through with a teleprompter in front of him. He stumbled over his words. [It] appeared that he was beginning to fall asleep,” Shapiro said, assessing the president’s performance. “It is perfectly obvious to everyone who is watching the reason that Joe Biden dropped out of the race, and that is that he is in declining mental health, that he is, in fact, in the throes of some form of senility, that he is in the sunset period of his life.”

Biden did not cite health reasons for his late departure from the race, however. The president said he made the decision to bow out of the race “because nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy.” The U.S. needs to be united to resist threats to its democracy, and the best way to unite the country is to “pass the torch to the next generation,” Biden said.

Shapiro said Biden effectively ran away from voters who are holding the president responsible for his record.

“The message that he put forth is that this election was too important for him to be in it. Somehow, he was not willing to allow the people to speak on his presidency,” Shapiro said.

The address leaves another major question unanswered, according to the Daily Wire host. “After watching Joe Biden speak, do you think that that man has the capacity to be the President of the United States right now, today? If you do, how? He could not get through a sentence from a televised speech that was supposed to be the apex of his career,” Shapiro said.

“Does that seem like the kind of man who is capable of holding it together for another six months? And if not, where is Vice President Kamala Harris who has the signal ability to oust him from the office by invoking the 25th Amendment today,” Shapiro said.
