President Donald Trump believes Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has been “brainwashed” by Democrats.
During a phone interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Trump discussed Biden’s presidential campaign, where he claimed the former vice president has been “brainwashed.”
“They brainwashed him, he doesn’t know where he is, he doesn’t know what he’s doing and our country will suffer. Our stock markets will crash, bad things will happen,” Trump said on Thursday evening.
According to Trump, the former vice president has been “taken over by the radical left.”
“Joe is just, look let’s face it, he’s been taken over by the radical left. He has no clue what they’re doing and what they’re getting him into,” Trump said.
In fact, he also described Biden as “worse than Bernie Sanders at his best.” Trump also discussed an alleged deal the Democratic Party made with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). While Trump did not offer any details about the basis of the deal he referred to, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) recently spoke on his team’s work with Biden’s campaign.
“This is worse than Bernie Sanders at his best and you look at the deal they made with Bernie Sanders now and the group and its all crazy radical left stuff,” Trump said.
“He has been totally taken over,” Trump later said of Biden. “I think it’s because he doesn’t understand what’s going on.”

Trump’s latest remarks about Biden come amid boastful claims about his own alleged cognitive test results. After raising questions about Biden’s cognitive abilities, the president claims he “surprised” the doctors when he “aced” the test.
“I actually took one very recently when, you know, the radical left was saying, ‘Is he all there? Is he all there?’ I proved I was all there because I aced it,” Trump said.
He added, “I aced the test. He should take the same exact test, a very standard test. I took it at Walter Reed Medical Center in front of doctors and they were very surprised. They said, ‘That’s an unbelievable thing. Rarely does anyone do what you just did.’”
The president has yet to release official documentation of his most recent cognitive test results.
