Trump Gets Level with Dr. Phil on Joe Biden: He’s ‘an Evil Guy’

Labeling one’s political opponent as “evil” has a long and glorious tradition in politics, even if it’s seldom been true.

In particular, the establishment media has had free rein to label conservatives as such for years now, especially when it comes to running cover for President Joe Biden.

But now, a recent appearance by the Republican nominee for president is giving the left a taste of its own medicine. And it’s great.

Appearing on the talk show “Dr. Phil Primetime,” former President Donald Trump had some blunt and choice words regarding Biden.

The internet went to town clipping that interview, with a few viral posts on the social media platform X showing some highlights of the segment.

Trump began the clip telling Dr. Phil that “the United States has become a dumping ground because of a very mentally deficient president. And it’s not him, I don’t believe it’s him, I do think he knows what’s going on, I think he’s sort of an evil guy.”

Will Trump’s support continue to grow?

While Trump appeared to send a mixed message that “it’s not him” but also acknowledging “he knows what’s going on,” the former president made it clear that the incumbent was doing a terrible job, regardless of who knew what was happening.

Even before Biden’s mind began slipping, he treated conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas abominably during Thomas’ confirmation hearings, he’s been accused of influence-peddling for his wastrel son, and even potential inappropriate behavior with his only daughter.

Indeed, the only thing that has prevented Biden from being completely pitiable is his own despicable track record.

Trump, having more to say, told Dr. Phil: “But he’s not at the top of his game, and he never was very good at it, if you look at his foreign policy for years and years and years, you look at how bad he was on the crime bill in the 1990s…he’s been bad at everything and he got lucky.”

Trump continued to rail against Biden, saying, “He ran three or four times, when he would be in, let’s say, normal shape, in good shape. He failed. He got it when he shouldn’t be here. And he’s dealing with…all these leaders of these countries who don’t like the United States, they don’t like what it represents, and they’re at the top of their game.”

Trump then went onto lament how the U.S. under Biden is a “failing nation,” and how, due to Biden’s weakness, “our country’s in tremendous danger of World War III” with talk of “nuclear weapons” — a threat, which, Trump noted, was never uttered during his presidency.

Now, what did the good folks who watched this exchange have to say?

One woman, a young black woman in the Dr. Phil’s audience, said she viewed Trump in a new light.

“I think it actually gave me an interpretation that I’ve never had of him before,” she said.

She then went onto make some interesting observations regarding the media coverage of Trump, saying that “and us not seeing him more, it actually… hurts people on judging him. I guess if that’s what the media wants to do, then they’re doing a good job.”

Another woman, an older white woman, then chimed in, telling Dr. Phil how her Democrat and Republican friends framed the 2020 election as “good vs. evil.”

“Now, four years later, the same people I know that have said these things are saying things like, I’m really upset with my 401(k), I’m upset when I go to the grocery store, and they’re all voting for Trump now,” the older woman explained.

While the responses of a couple of women from a Dr. Phil audience are not necessarily representative of the entire country, nevertheless, they hinted at an interesting development: These women’s responses were something of a microcosm of the turn the country has taken when it comes to Trump.

Historically Democrat voter blocs, such as Hispanics or black men, have begun jumping ship to the Republican side this election, after witnessing firsthand how detrimental Biden’s policies have been.

Whatever you may think of Trump’s appearance on Dr. Phil’s show, you can’t deny what it represents. And what it represents is the fact that more and more people are realizing just how much they’ve been lied to about Trump over the past eight years.

Before 2020, voters just had to take Trump’s word regarding his policies and achievements.

In 2024, however, both he and Biden have a track records you can directly compare. When it comes to important issues like the economy, immigration, and foreign policy, voters can clearly see how much better Trump actually ran the country overall — “mean” X posts and all.

Might more people be coming around to Trump? That definitely appears to be so.

Will that translate to a Trump win in November? Hard to say right now, but, it does seem to be a good start.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

I heard a chilling comment the other day: “We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” 

 

That wasn’t said by a conspiracy theorist or a doomsday prophet. No, former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said that to the founder of The Western Journal, Floyd Brown.

 

Gen. Flynn’s warning means that the 2024 election is the most important election for every single living American. If we lose this one to the wealthy elites who hate us, hate God, and hate what America stands for, we can only assume that 248 years of American history and the values we hold dear to our hearts may soon vanish.

 

The end game is here, and as Benjamin Franklin said, “We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.”

 

All of this means that without you, it’s over. We have the platform, the journalists, and the experience to fight back hard, but Big Tech is strangling us through advertising blacklists, shadow bans, and algorithms. Did you know that we’ve been blacklisted by 90% of advertisers? Without direct support from you, our readers, we can’t continue the fight.

 

Can we count on your support? It may not seem like much, but a Western Journal Membership can make all the difference in the world because when you support us directly, you cut Big Tech out of the picture. They lose control. 

 

A monthly Western Journal Membership costs less than one coffee and breakfast sandwich each month, and it gets you access to ALL of our content — news, commentary, and premium articles. You’ll experience a radically reduced number of ads, and most importantly you will be vitally supporting the fight for America’s soul in 2024.

 

We are literally counting on you because without our members, The Western Journal would cease to exist. Will you join us in the fight? 

 

Sincerely,

Josh Manning

Deputy Managing Editor
