DON LETS LOOSE ON OLD FOE JOE

Slams ‘moron’ as worst prez ever

- By DIANA GLEBOVA and STEVE JANOSKI

WILDWOOD, NJ — Donald Trump recited all his greatest hits at a massive Sunday evening rally in Wildwood, NJ, but managed to avoid violating his court-imposed gag order by focusing on President Biden, whom he called a “total moron” and blamed for his web of legal troubles.

Trump — wearing his typical blue suit, blood-red tie and “Make America Great Again” cap — railed about inflation, offshore windmills, electric cars, the press and Chris Christie.

But unsurprisi­ngly, it was Biden who drew his most intense vitriol.

“You could take the 10 worst presidents in the history of our country, and add them up . . . and they haven’t done the damage to our country that this total moron has done,” Trump said to a cheering crowd of tens of thousands.

“He’s a fool, he’s not a smart man. He never was,” Trump said. “He was considered stupid. I talk about him differentl­y now because now, the gloves are off. He’s a bad guy . . . he’s the worst president ever, of any country. The whole world is laughing at him, he’s a fool.”

The former president also alluded to his plethora of indictment­s, which allege he committed a variety of crimes before, during and after the 2016 and 2020 elections.

He blamed Biden for his legal troubles, saying, “You don’t do that to your opponents.

“It’s done in third-world countries, it’s done in banana republics, it’s not done in the United States of America.”

The crowd — which Wildwood officials estimated between 80,000 and 100,000, a record for a Garden State political rally — cheered wildly throughout the long, but controlled speech.

They went wild when Trump implied former New Jersey Gov. and Trump rival Chris Christie was obese, chanted “Bulls--t!” when he talked about his indictment­s, and booed loudly when he brought up the Biden administra­tion’s decision to withhold an ammo shipment from Israel as it continues its war with Hamas in Gaza.

“Shocking to hear that!” Trump said, as the crowd cried

out in agreement. He also hit some local notes, including bringing onstage NFL Giants great Lawrence Taylor.

Trump told the crowd his administra­tion oversaw the “greatest economy in the history of our country,” and that New Jersey would benefit heartily if he returned to office.

“If Joe Biden wins this election, the middle class loses, New Jersey loses,” Trump said.

“But if Trump wins, the middle class wins, the people of low income really start winning again, and you’re all going for the American Dream!” he continued. “New Jersey wins, Pennsylvan­ia wins, America wins.”

He also alluded to his looming pick for vice president, and may have hinted at his eventual choice when he referenced North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, who flew with Trump to the Jersey Shore rally and spoke briefly.

“Just get ready for something — just get ready!” Trump said.
