Does real life begin after high school? Well, 71-year-old President Trump and 75-year-old former Vice President Joe Biden may have never left the schoolyard.
On Tuesday, Biden spoke at a University of Miami rally in Florida against sexual violence and said, "A guy who ended up becoming our national leader said, 'I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it.' "
Biden added, "If we were in high school, I'd take him behind the gym and beat the hell out of him."
It's a taunt he has traded with the president on several occasions .
Trump responded to the latest Biden comment on Twitter on Thursday morning, boasting that the former vice president "would go down fast and hard" if the two got into a tussle.
The scuffling over an imaginary brawl comes as Biden prepares to announce members of the Biden Institute Advisory Board on Thursday, through his program at the University of Delaware , along with a three-part vision called "A Plan to Put Work-and Workers-First."
Biden has been campaigning for Democratic candidates, including Rep.-elect Conor Lamb, who won a special election this month for a House seat in a district that Trump won easily in 2016.
