Republican leader said that US would never remain same if Biden-Harris ticket are winner. "Our country could never be same country if y win, because y are radicalised left," Trump said as he launched a scathing attack against Harris.
"Joe Biden will never call shots and if he does, he's t going to be re very long. He's got a vice president who's furr left than (Senator) Bernie Sanders, who is t a particularly good person and she would be, I think, a terrible first representative," Trump alleged.

"If she became first woman president, I think it would be a terrible thing for our country. I think it would be a terrible thing for women," he said.
Harris is first ever Indian-American, Black and African-American to be a vice presidential candidate of a major political party. If elected, she would break ar glass ceiling and would be just one step away from being president of country. In that case she would be first ever woman president of country.

"I look forward to first woman president," Trump said in response to a question. "But I wouldn't look forward to her being that person. I think it would be a very bad thing. I think you'd have a country that would become a socialist country, if y pack courts, that would be a terrible thing," said president.
Trump reiterated that Biden is beyond his prime time in life and he is having a tough time from radicalised left of Democratic party who have taken over party. "That's a tough group to run and y would take country into a terrible place. But Joe's going to have a hard time. He's t going to be able to handle m," he claimed.

"Joe is having a very hard time. Joe Biden is t prime time. He never was, actually. But he's t prime time. And he's put in a very hard position. When you see all of gaffes and all of problems, this is something that -- he shouldn't be -- when he says he's -- he's a proud Democrat running for US Senate and, you kw, at first I thought he was joking, but he wasn't joking. He's done that a number of times," he said, referring to many gaffes by Biden.
