President Donald Trump accused Joe Biden, his presumptive general election rival, on Friday of having plagiarized portions of his administration’s economic agenda.
Trump, who won the presidency in part on his promise to rebuild American manufacturing, claimed Biden’s new “Buy American” plan was heavily cribbed from efforts already underway.
“He plagiarized from me, but he can never pull it off,” the president told reporters on the White House lawn as he prepared to depart for a tour of Florida. “He likes plagiarizing. It’s a plan that is very radical left, but he says the right things because he’s copying what I’ve done.”
“But the difference is he can’t do it and he knows he’s not doing that,” Trump added, without going into detail as to what had been plagiarized.
