New York (August 26,2023) : US President Joe Biden made a light-hearted comment about former President Donald Trump's mugshot on Friday, calling him a "handsome guy." Biden made the comment during a press conference in Lake Tahoe, California. He was asked about Trump's recent comments about the January 6th Capitol riot, and he said that he had not seen Trump's mugshot. "I haven't seen it, but I'm sure he's a handsome guy," Biden said. Biden's comment was met with laughter from the press. It is not clear whether Biden was being serious or sarcastic.
Trump's mugshot was taken in 1973 after he was arrested for protesting the Vietnam War. He was later acquitted of the charges. Biden's comment is the latest in a series of barbs between the two former presidents. Trump has repeatedly criticized Biden, and Biden has occasionally responded in kind. The two men are expected to continue to trade barbs in the coming months, as they both gear up for the 2024 presidential election.
