There has been concern among Republicans after President Joe Biden was replaced by Vice President Kamala Harris at the top of the Democrat ticket, but the Republican nominee says there is no need to worry.

At his rally in Bozeman, Montana, the former president said that he believes Harris will be even easier to defeat than Biden would have been, The Washington Examiner reported.

“You know, they took it away from him. They really did. They took it away — the guy had 14 million votes. She had none. But I’d rather run against her. I think she’s easier to beat, I really do,” the former president said.

He went on to mock the vice president’s name, claiming that there was more than one way to pronounce it.

“You know she’s got about nine different ways of pronouncing that name. And because the press is so dishonest, no matter how you say it, they’ll say you were wrong. You were wrong. I don’t care if I get it right, actually, I couldn’t care less,” he said.

At one point during the rally, Trump also played a supercut video of Harris revealing, in her own words, her far-left policy agenda.

The former president had an air of confidence about him but said that the Democrat nominee should be concerned about her boss making a comeback and grabbing the nomination back.

“And now he’s seeing what the competition is. I hear he’s going to make a comeback at the Democrat convention,” the former president said. “He’s going to walk into the room, and he’s going to say, I want my presidency back. I want another chance to debate Trump. I want another chance.”

He also insisted that he would perform well with suburban women, who have historically been a weakness for him.

“I think suburban women like me a lot — why wouldn’t they?” he said before pointing out that he changed the rules that govern where low-income housing could be built.

“I’m gonna keep criminals out of your neighborhood; that’s really all that matters. I think they like me anyways,” the former president said, as polls show he is still trailing Democrats with that group.

The former president took aim at Democrat vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz who has used the word “weird” to describe Trump and Republican vice presidential nominee, Ohio Sen. JD Vance.

“[Walz] said, ‘You know, I think J.D. Vance is weird,’ you know, it’s a word that they use,” the former president said. “We want to be able to buy a house. We want great education. We want strong borders. I think we’re very actually, I think we’re the opposite of weird. They’re weird.”

“Tim Waltz is the man who’s very freakish. He’s very freakish. If Comrade Walz and Comrade Harris win this November, the people cheering will be the pink-haired Marxists, the looters, the perverts, the flag burners, Hamas supporters, drug dealers, gun grabbers, and human traffickers,” he said.

He then pivoted to Democrat Sen. Jon Tester, whose opponent, Republican Tim Sheehy, he was campaigning for.

“One of the most sinister accomplices in Kamala’s plot to demolish American Borders has been her ally, that partner in the U.S. Senate, one of the biggest phonies in American politics. His name is Jon Tester,” he said. “And I don’t speak badly about somebody’s physical disability, but he’s got the biggest stomach I have ever seen. That’s the biggest stomach; I have never seen a stomach like that, because he doesn’t look that heavy.”
