President Joe Biden went after 'Trump clone' Larry Elder, the leading Republican who could take the place of Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom, if things go badly for the party in Tuesday's recall race, reports The Daily Mail.
'You either keep Gavin Newsom as your governor or you get Donald Trump,' Biden warned at a rally on the campus of Long Beach City College Monday night.
The 78-year-old Biden coughed through the delivery of his remarks, apologizing at one point for needing to take a sip of water.
On Tuesday, voters in California will decide whether to keep Newsom, or replace him with someone else, with polls showing Salem radio talk host Elder as the most likely alternative.
Biden, who spent time with Newsom surveying fire damage in the Sacramento area before flying to Long Beach, recalled to the crowd how he got to run against the 'real Donald Trump' last year.
'This year, this year, the leading Republican,' Biden said. 'Is the closest thing to a Trump clone that I've ever seen in your state.'
