Former U.S. President Donald Trump stated that "any Jew who votes for Biden, Kamala Harris, or whoever the Democrats choose as their candidate—I think it will be Kamala—should have their mental health evaluated. Because no one has treated them worse than the Biden administration, which is destroying Israel." In an interview today with Fox News, Trump attacked the current U.S. administration, saying, "Listen, they are the ones posing a threat to democracy. First of all, they have an unqualified person as president. And now they want to put an even worse person in place. She is somewhat incompetent, not very smart, but very extreme, more extreme than Bernie Sanders, and Bernie is completely crazy, and he supports her."
Additionally, Trump referenced Harris's previous role, suggesting she seems likely to be Biden's replacement as a candidate in the Democratic campaign: "She was a bad district attorney. She’s a liberal from San Francisco, and she put thousands of blacks in jail for marijuana charges. But when it comes to major crimes like murder and theft, she was weak."
In response to a question about whether he would leave the presidency at the end of his term after four years, he answered, "Of course, like I did last time." Trump noted the declining turnout among the Christian audience he addressed during a rally, stating: "I started my speech with the Christians, you never vote, because they vote in very low numbers. I urged them to get out and vote and that they don’t have to vote again, this election is the most important in our country’s history. Don’t worry about the future, vote for me and then you won’t have to worry about voting again, because we will fix the country, and afterward, we won’t need you to vote again."
When asked about the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics, he responded, referencing the controversy that arose from a satire of Christianity presented during the ceremony: "I thought the ceremony was a disgrace, actually." When the interviewer asked Trump if he would have enough influence in 2028, when the Olympics are held in the U.S., to ensure the ceremony does not offend Christians, the Republican candidate replied: "We won’t conduct the Last Supper in the way they presented it at the ceremony. You know I’m an open person, and you know me better than most. I’m very open, but I thought what they did was a disgrace."
