Trump predicts ‘explosion’ between Biden, Harris during Scranton rally

Former President Donald Trump predicted to supporters in President Biden’s birth city of Scranton, Pa., Wednesday that the commander in chief will break with Vice President Kamala Harris before next month’s election.

“He looks better now than I’ve ever seen him looking,” Trump said, referring to Biden’s appearance since dropping his re-election bid July 21.

However, the 45th president, 78, also suggested that Biden was “angry” since he was forced to quit the race by a Democratic “coup.”

“He’s angry, he’s angry at her,” Trump mused. “There’s going to be an explosion before the election with them. Those two are going to be, there’s going to be an explosion. Did you see? He held a news conference right in the middle of her, her one big event that she’s had in about two weeks.

“He got up and held a news conference. He walked into the room. Nobody ever does that,” the Republican nominee added, referring to Biden making his first appearance in the White House briefing room as president while Harris held a rally in Flint, Mich.

“Can you believe our country is being run by these people?”

Biden has publicly kept up good feelings with Harris, campaigning for her and maintaining his endorsement for her. The president has also said he sees his veep as a continuation of his legacy who will build upon his achievements.

Trump traveled to Scranton, where Biden was born and lived off-and-on until he was 10, with 27 days to go before the election, which most pundits predict will be won or lost in the Keystone State.

Biden leaned into his Pennsylvania ties during the 2020 campaign, calling himself “Scranton Joe” in an appeal to the Irish and Italian working class Catholic vote in northeastern Pennsylvania.

Anecdotal evidence indicates those voters may swing back toward Trump this time around, as Scranton voters have long been disgruntled about the president’s performance in office.

Trump also panned Harris for saying on “The View” Tuesday that “not a thing comes to mind” about how she would have changed Biden’s presidency, saying she was served a “softball question” and that he expected her to name off several policies.

Northeast Pennsylvanians told The Post they’ve had enough of the two big-name Democrats native to Scranton: Biden and Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.).

“I think it’s time to retire,” said Andrew Walker, a 32-year-old electrical contracting business owner from nearby Clarks Summit.

“I’m here for Trump and [GOP vice presidential nominee] JD Vance, and it’s a shame what the other two have done for this area,” said Ben Forte, a 55-year-old FedEx freight lift operator from Peckville.

“The policies are not working. We need to change it,” agreed Jennifer Buckman, a 54-year-old Air Force veteran from Lake Ariel.

Buckman told The Post she actually met Trump in March 2020 — when the then-prez held a town hall in Scranton before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“I got to talk to him for 30 seconds… I told him I was retired military,” Buckman said.

“He said, ‘How do you like the military right now?’ And he was genuinely interested to talk to me.”

She said she could tell Trump was a strong supporter of America’s armed forces — just as her own friends who serve are fans of his.

“I said ‘They love you, they absolutely love you,’” Buckman recalled telling Trump about her fellow veterans.

“And he said, ‘Good, is there anything I can do for you?’” she said. “He loved the military and he was thankful for the military.”
