Trump wants physical fight with Joe Biden whose 'legs have got thin' after ex-VP threatened to beat POTUS up

Trump said, 'He's very agitated, so angry. But he's a weak person, you know. He challenged me a year and a half ago, you know. I'd like to take him behind a barn'

President Donald Trump said he wants to have a physical confrontation with Joe Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee's "legs have gotten very thin". Trump made this comment while speaking to supporters at a rally in Opa-Locka in Florida on Sunday, November 1, night. His comments follow those made by Biden back in 2018 when the former vice-president had said that he would "beat the hell out of" Trump should they have been in high school together.

While speaking of his rival at the rally, Trump said, "He's very agitated, so angry. But he's a weak person, you know. He challenged me a year and a half ago, you know. I'd like to take him behind a barn. I said, 'Of all the people in the world that I could fight, that's the one I'd probably like to most fight'." "Those legs have gotten very thin. Not a lot of base. You wouldn't have to close the fist," he added. While speaking at the University of Miami, Biden had said, "When a guy who ended up becoming our national leader said, 'I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it' and then said, 'I made a mistake'. They asked me would I like to debate this gentleman, and I said no. I said, 'If we were in high school, I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him'."

During the rally, Trump shared how if he had made similar remarks then people would say, "our president is inciting evil". Many social media users slammed Trump for his comments across platforms like Twitter. One such user shared, "The only fight he will have is the fight for his freedom. There are several State and Federal lawsuits waiting for him! #ByeDonnie #TrumpIsLosing." Another added, "I’d take trump on any day. All I’d have to do is say boo and he would run like the scared little bitch he is." Yet another commented, "Why are putting a fence around you and hiding in your Bunker... You wouldn't last 30 seconds with Biden... Nothing but a coward!"

"@realDonaldTrump I'm sure he'll say he was just joking! He sure sets a good example for our children! Trump says he wants to have a physical fight with Biden as 'those legs have gotten very thin' Trump is just ignorant for a Man to be so important . Stupid and dumb fool," wrote another user. Yet another chimed in, "Trump says he wants to have a physical fight with Biden as 'those legs have gotten very thin'....... Because your fat gut, and and tree trunk legs are so fat! Joe Biden is a physically fit specimen! You are a big fat orange blob, a clown!"

Another user who echoed the same sentiments added, "wth would that prove? tell you what...Donald we'll settle for you running up to the podium like Biden does...I doubt very much you could run 10' .... you are obese and highly out of shape & sitting in a golf cart swinging a club does nothing for your fitness."
