During an interview with Elon Musk on X today, Donald Trump claimed that Joe Biden was forced to drop out of the US Presidential race due to what he called a ‘coup.’ Trump, stated, ‘I beat Biden so badly in the debate that he was forced out of the race—one of the greatest debate performances ever. Biden’s exit, it was a coup.’
Musk supported Trump’s claim, saying, ‘They took him behind a shed and shot him.’ Trump also discussed the assassination attempt he survived last month, saying, ‘I knew right away it was a bullet. I knew it was at my ear. For those who don’t believe in God, I think we all need to start thinking about that.’
Trump had no evidence, as per usual, for his claim that Russia would not have invaded Ukraine if he were still president. He praised Russian President Vladimir Putin, Chinese President Xi Jinping, and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—all autocrats—as being at the top of their game.’ He fumed, too, that Vice President Kamala Harris had taken the place of Joe Biden on the Democratic ticket.

He said that Kamala Harris hasn’t been interviewed since this whole scam started.’ While at one point Trump was ahead of Biden in many of the key battleground state polls critical to the Nov. 5 election, he now trails Harris in some of those same states.
