@RealDonaldTrump doesn't think #SleepyJoe #Biden2020 will be able to 'do the job' #MagaFirstNews W/@PeterBoykin President Trump, in a wide-ranging, exclusive phone interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity, dismissed the launch of former Vice President Joe Biden's presidential campaign, nicknaming him "Sleepy Joe" and saying he’s "not the brightest bulb." Biden, the president said, has name recognition but he won't "be able to do the job." When asked about Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., Trump criticized his record, saying Sanders had "misguided energy" and asserted that Sanders "talks a lot" but hasn't accomplished anything. The president referred to former U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke of Texas as "a fluke" who had lost much momentum and outright dismissed Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., and South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg -- although he said he was "rooting" for Buttigieg.
