Joe Biden believes he knows exactly why Donald Trump talks about him so much.
During the Thursday, May 8 broadcast of The View, former first lady Dr. Jill Biden and the former president sat down for a conversation with the hosts of the daytime talk show, where Joy Behar made the claim that the president is “obsessed” with Biden and his family.

“Have you noticed that Trump can’t stop talking about you?” Behar, 82, asked Biden during Thursday’s show, adding with a laugh, “He’s obsessed with you.”
She then went on to list a number of statistics regarding how many times Trump has mentioned Biden, his family or his administration. According to Behar, that number is upwards of 580 as of late April. Plus, at his cabinet meeting last week, Biden’s name was reportedly mentioned 52 times.
“Why is he so fixated on you?” Behar asked Biden, 82, who had a very simple response to the question.
“I beat him,” Biden said with a smirk, which made the studio audience erupt in laughter and applause.
Biden came out on top of Trump in the 2020 election, barring him from staying in the White House for a second consecutive term. Trump eventually got voted into office again in November 2024, when he won the election against Biden’s Vice President, Kamala Harris.
“He’s just ticked off,” Behar added, after noting that Trump is still “blaming” Biden and his administration for the current economic state of the nation.
“I’m used to dealing with bullies,” Biden added.
