Opinion
President Joe Biden has referred to his predecessor, Donald Trump, as a “sick f***” in private conversations with close friends and aides, according to a report by Politico.
The outlet cited multiple sources who have heard the President using profane language in describing the likely GOP nominee for the White House.
“The president has described Trump to longtime friends and close aides as a ‘sick fuck’ who delights in others’ misfortunes,” they write.
Politico also states that one of those sources that they spoke with said Biden recently remarked about Trump: “What a f***ing a**hole the guy is.”

Biden, The Man Who Ran On Decency, Calls Trump A ‘Sick F***’
Remember when Dr. Jill once argued that “decency is on the ballot” prior to the 2020 presidential election? Surely the left will come out and vociferously condemn the President over his use of such language.
Or maybe not.
MSNBC host Joe Scarborough celebrated the news and advised Biden’s handlers that voters would like to see more of this tough guy version.
“I think this may be one reason why the White House probably should let him out more,” Scarborough said. “There’s been concerns that that he’s not getting out, he’s not doing enough stuff, he’s not answering enough questions.”
Others on social media also felt that Biden upped his street cred with this report.
The perpetually bitter and unserious Meghan McCain loves this version of Biden as well.
“Him calling Trump a ‘sick f***’ is my favorite thing he’s done in months and months,” she wrote on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
The New Republic said President Biden should call Trump a “sick f***” in public.
“Biden should just go ahead and say it publicly. Not all the time of course. But once or twice,” they write. “It won’t hurt. Most likely it will help.”
They also claim without evidence that most of America agrees with Biden. In reality, Biden has a lower approval rating than Trump, and we think most Americans while shopping for groceries or cashing their paychecks, or anybody who has been sniffed by him, might think Biden is actually projecting.

Not The First Time Biden’s Acted Like This
It’s funny that this report about calling his political opponent a “sick f***” came out at about the same time that Biden, the decency and civility candidate, was discussing checking in on people and helping them experience sunnier days with … Elmo.
Of course, the nice guy shtick was always a ruse. This is, after all, the same guy who calls reporters that don’t parrot his talking points a “sick son of a b****.”

Biden also, speaking at a campaign rally for former Democrat Senator Heidi Heitkamp in 2018, suggested her Republican opponent needed to get roughed up.

And who could forget Biden saying of Trump: “If we were in high school, I’d take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him.”
Look, we’re under no delusion that Trump is a saint when it comes to this kind of thing, but Biden’s comments are equally inappropriate.
Only one is going to be portrayed negatively in the media for it though.
