The article cites sources close to the President who claim that Biden’s frustration with Trump has grown in recent months. The sources claim that Biden has been particularly upset by Trump’s continued claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent, as well as Trump’s ongoing attacks on the Biden administration.
A joke that Trump made about Nancy Pelosi is reportedly what led to one of the incidents where he cursed about Trump behind closed doors.
The White House has not yet commented on the report, but it is sure to add fuel to the already heated political climate. The relationship between Biden and Trump has been contentious since the 2020 election, with both men trading barbs in public and in the media.

It is not the first time that Biden has been reported to use profanity and disrespectful language when discussing Trump. In 2020, Biden was caught on a hot mic calling Trump a “clown” and telling him to “shut up” during a presidential debate.
The use of such language by a sitting President is sure to draw criticism from some quarters, with some arguing that it is unbecoming of the office. However, others may see it as a sign of Biden’s passion and frustration with the current political climate.
It remains to be seen how this latest report will affect the already strained relationship between Biden and Trump, but it is sure to add to the ongoing political drama in Washington.
