Liberals claim viral footage shows Trump calling Kamala a vile slur – what do YOU hear?
A secretly filmed video of Donald Trump attacking Kamala Harris has been picked up by liberals, who claim Trump called his presidential rival a “bitch.”
The Republican candidate sat next to his son Barron on a golf cart as he chatted with some players at one of his courses on July 2.
When one of them posted the footage online hours later, most viewers thought they heard the former president say about Harris: “She’s so bad, she’s so pathetic, she’s just so damn bad.”
But the footage is being re-examined after hostile claims emerged in the NYT over the weekend that Trump had been systematically calling Harris a “bitch” in private.
“Great role model: calling the Vice President of the US and his new opponent a damn bitch in front of his teenage son Baron,” tweeted liberal commentator Gretchen Carlson.

Others have jumped on the bandwagon, including prominent LGBTQ rights activist Marlene Robertson, who claimed the footage shows the ex-president calling her “a fucking bitch loud and clear.”
But the then-Biden-Harris 2024 campaign responded to the footage by criticizing Trump for calling Harris “so damn bad.” The new allegations about what he said have led some to demand that Democrats get their hearing tested.
“Why do you lie when people clearly hear him say ‘bad’?” asked one.
“You guys are literally fake news,” wrote another. “Shame on you and all who support you.”
“The man may have called her that, maybe worse, but he doesn’t on this tape and I’m terrified of the number of people who will parrot this lie,” added a third.
The video shows that Trump was convinced Biden would step down nearly three weeks before the president announced he would resign.
Speaking about Biden’s disastrous performance against him in the first presidential debate, Trump asked the golfers, “How did I do in the debate the other night?”
Without waiting for an answer, he tells them, “I kicked that old, broken-down piece of junk in the ass.
“He’s out of the race. I took him out of the race, and that means we have Kamala.
The liberal New York Times claimed that Trump routinely calls Kamala Harris a “bitch” and that he is shocked by the Democrats’ improved poll numbers since she won the nomination.
Most people who saw the video were incredulous at the suggestion that Trump used the misogynistic statement during a golf course speech
“I think she’ll be better. She’s so bad. She’s so pathetic, she’s just so f***ing bad”
“Can you imagine that guy hanging out with Putin and the president of China, who’s a fierce person? He’s a fierce guy. Very tough guy.”
The NYT profile suggested that Trump was looking for a challenge to Biden and that he was shocked by the Democrats’ improved poll numbers since Harris took office.
“Mr. Trump seemed comfortable campaigning against an 81-year-old sitting president who had trouble with stairs, thoughts and sentences,” wrote reporter Maggie Haberman.
“Suddenly he finds himself in a race against a black woman almost 20 years his junior, a woman who has already made history and who draws large and enthusiastic crowds.”
Haberman noted that Trump has publicly called Harris “mean” and claimed that two people close to him told her they had heard him privately repeatedly refer to his new opponent as a “bitch.”
But she claimed his mood improved after she chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, over Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, a fear he had of handing the crucial state to Democrats in the November election.

The ex-president has not held back in his attacks on the former California attorney general, accusing her of destroying the state and questioning her racial identity, claiming she “happened to become black” when it was politically convenient.
However, he appears relaxed about the secretly recorded video, even going so far as to repost it on his Truth Social platform.
And his campaign team denies he ever called his opponent a bitch.
“That is not the language President Trump has used to describe Kamala, and it is not the way the campaign would characterize her,” said campaign spokesman Steven Cheung.
