President Trump unveiled a new nickname for his potential Democratic rival Joe Biden.
In a tweet Friday, Trump predicted the 2020 Democratic nomination would come down to “SleepyCreepy Joe” against “Crazy Bernie” Sanders.
“Everyone else is fading fast!” Trump wrote of the more than 20 Democratic presidential candidates in the race.

Looks to me like it’s going to be SleepyCreepy Joe over Crazy Bernie. Everyone else is fading fast!

Trump has previously referred to the former vice president as “Sleepy Joe,” but Friday he referenced Biden’s unwanted touching. Eight women have publicly accused Biden of touching them without their permission.
In April, citing the economy, Trump appeared confident in facing either Sanders, an independent senator from Vermont, or Biden.
“I look forward to facing whoever it may be. May God Rest Their Soul!” he tweeted.
I believe it will be Crazy Bernie Sanders vs. Sleepy Joe Biden as the two finalists to run against maybe the best Economy in the history of our Country (and MANY other great things)! I look forward to facing whoever it may be. May God Rest Their Soul!
