3. Biden and Trump call each other criminals
During a discussion about the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, Biden brought up how “the only person on this stage who’s a convicted felon is the man I’m looking at right now.” After Tapper asked Trump to elaborate on his statement suggesting that he would have “every right to go after” his political opponents, Trump replied that Biden “could be a convicted felon as soon as he gets out of office.”
Trump cited “all of the things that he’s done,” including “death caused at the border” due to his illegal immigration policy and his suggestion to a Ukrainian diplomat as vice president that he would withhold money from the country unless a prosecutor looking into a company that his son, Hunter, served on the board of was fired as reasons why Biden could find himself convicted of a crime. “This man is a criminal,” Trump declared.
Both men vehemently proclaimed their innocence. “I did nothing wrong,” Trump asserted. “We have a system that was rigged and disgusting.”
“The idea that I did anything wrong relative to what you’re talking about is outrageous. It’s simply a lie,” Biden responded. The president pointed out additional crimes Trump was “charged with,” including “having sex with a porn star.”
This prompted Trump to proclaim, “I didn’t have sex with a porn star.”
