President Trump says that he would prefer to run against "sleepy" Joe Biden than Hillary Clinton in an election. "I would actually rather run against Biden," Trump told NBC's "Meet the Press" in a Friday interview which was broadcast Sunday. "I actually think that Hillary Clinton was a great candidate. She was very smart. She was very tough," said the President, adding that the former Secretary of State was "ruthless and vicious." Biden, on the other hand - not so much. "He’s sleepy," said Trump, adding "She was not sleepy." (She did famously ">pass out at a September 11 anniversary event and in India last year) WATCH: Trump says Biden would be easier to beat than Clinton was in 2016: "He's sleepy Joe. He's sleepy. She was not sleepy." https://twitter.com/hashtag/MTP?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs"); https://twitter.com/hashtag/IfItsSunday?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs"); pic.twitter.com/xvhFvZfpZS — Meet the Press (@MeetThePress) https://twitter.com/MeetThePress/status/1142848356202532864?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw!function(d,s,id){var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0],p=/^http:/.test(d.location)?'http':'https';if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src=p+"://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs"); For those who may be confused, Trump has been calling "Meet the Press" host Chuck Todd "Sleepy Eyes" since at least 2012, while Biden is simply sleepy.
