Confident Trump takes a dig at the 2020 Democratic presidential field
HACKBERRY, La. - President Donald Trump came to southern Louisiana on Tuesday to extol the benefits of U.S. energy production but could not resist a slashing critique of the Democrats battling to face him in the 2020 presidential race.
“I’m looking at the competition. You sort of dream about competition like that, you know?” he told several hundred workers at the Cameron liquefied natural gas export terminal in Hackberry, Louisiana. After talking up the benefits of LNG exports, Trump dove into his assessment of Democratic presidential contenders, who are eager to deny him a second term and have bashed his presidency on the campaign trail.
“Beto is falling fast. What the hell happened? Remember, about four weeks ago, he said: ‘I was made for this.’ He was made for it. He was made to fall like a rock,” said Trump.“I don’t know what the hell happened to Biden. What happened to him? I’m looking and I said: ‘That doesn’t look like the guy I knew.’ What happened to him?” asked Trump.
