Donald Trump sees Biden the same as Hillary

Donald Trump said on Sunday the potential entrance of Vice President Joe Biden into the presidential race wouldn’t matter, declaring he’d be the same type of Democratic opponent as Hillary Clinton.

“I think they’re the same,” Trump said in a phone interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s “This Week.” “I think that Hillary may be very damaged, however, George, because of the email thing. … But I don’t know, assuming she could get over that, which I just don’t know how she possibly can, but if assuming she could, I would say it would be pretty equal.”

Trump, the billionaire estate mogul and entertainer who is leading in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, also knocked GOP rivals Jeb Bush and Scott Walker.

“Now, the candidates that are running against me like — like Jeb Bush, he has no clue. He’s never going to be able to do anything,” Trump said. “You just looked at what’s happened with him over the years and what’s happened with — the last thing we need is another Bush.”

The former Florida governor is a “very low-energy person,” Trump said.

“He’d never be able to do it,” Trump said of securing the U.S.-Mexico border. “I just don’t think he has the energy — you need energy for this job. You need — you can’t be soft.”

Trump said he said he wasn’t worried about Walker, the governor of Wisconsin, because the state was “really in trouble,” and mocked his changing positions on birthright citizenship.

“Scott Walker has changed his mind now, because he keeps going back to his pollster, and his pollster says, ‘Oh, Trump has a good idea, oh, Trump has a bad idea, oh, no, wait a minute, Trump has a good idea,” Trump said.

Appearing after Trump on “This Week,” Walker said Trump was “using the talking points of the Democrats” to criticize Wisconsin.

Trump has touted his plan to secure the border and kick immigrants in the country illegally out of the U.S., while letting “the good ones back in.” But he still wouldn’t provide specifics on Sunday on how he would pay for his plan.

“It’s called good management, and it’s called great people,” Trump said when pressed on the costs.

As disgusting as Biden is, he’s a piker when it comes to crime and the Clintons.

He is also unqualified to be the president, but reason of being an absolute simpleton.

If Hillary was somehow elected our first female president would be an ugly lying commie skank. Biden is a lot less repulsive looking; we have already had brainless fools elected to be president so at least it wouldn’t be setting a dangerous precedent.

I love that answer.

“It is called good management and great people.”

You hire the best and let them do what they do.

And if we would have had that a few years ago in Washington, we wouldn’t still be talking about securing the boarder. It would have been done and the problem of illegal immigration would be much smaller that it is now.
