Former President Donald Trump laid into President Joe Biden on Newsmax TV on Wednesday night for his "dumb statement" at a CNN town hall Tuesday, suggesting there was no vaccine before the new administration.
"I saw that he said there was no vaccine when he came into office, and yet he got a shot before he came into office," Trump told Wednesday's "Greg Kelly Reports." "It was already in early November when we announced it, but we actually had it substantially before that. We were giving millions of shots and millions of doses.
"So he's either not telling a truth, or he's mentally gone, one or the other."
Trump told host Greg Kelly, it had to be a joke, right?
"Could he be joking? Because, frankly, that was a very dumb statement."
But Trump did revel in the fact even his own detractors are having to come to his defense against Biden's latest verbal gaffe.
"Biden's being killed on that whole thing," Trump said.
"Even the haters are saying, you know this vaccine was announced long before. He is getting lit up on that one."
