US President Joe Biden Calls Russian President Vladimir Putin a “Crazy Son of a B****” in California Fundraising Event
During a public fundraising event in California, US President Joe Biden referred to Russian President Vladimir Putin as a “crazy son of a b****.” Biden’s harsh language was used in a brief speech in San Francisco that was attended by a small group of journalists.
“We have a crazy son of a b**** like that guy Putin, and others, and we always have to worry about nuclear conflict, but the existential threat to humanity is the climate,” Biden said.
This outburst from Biden follows previous occasions where he has referred to Putin as a “butcher” and a “war criminal,” particularly in light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
Biden also announced that the United States will impose a package of tough new sanctions against Russia on Friday following the death of opposition leader Alexei Navalny in prison.
Furthermore, Biden stated that he had canceled the student debts of “almost 4 million Americans” and announced a new forgiveness measure earlier in the day. The White House estimates that this latest measure will allow $1.2 billion in debt to be canceled and benefit 153,000 people.
The President’s campaign team is aiming to win the sympathy of young people who have been less enthusiastic about his candidacy. Recent surveys have shown that Biden is tied with former President Donald Trump in the voting intentions of young people aged 18 to 34, and that he is even less popular among this age group compared to his conservative rival.
Biden has been working to fulfill campaign promises, particularly regarding student loans, as a means to solidify support among younger voters.
