The White House on Tuesday dismissed as “laughable” Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s expected remarks in a speech in Iowa labeling President Trump an “existential threat to America.”

“The idea that he would say that the president poses any type of threat is truly laughable, considering he was part of the administration that allowed Russia to interfere in our election,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders told reporters.

She blasted the former vice president for being a member of an administration that allowed China to expand its trade war against the US and North Korea to test ballistic missiles.

Biden released excerpts of a speech he will deliver later Tuesday in Iowa in which he blasts Trump on climate change, his use of tariffs and his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

“There’s a lot of ways Trump fails the basic standard to be president — but one of them is this: Donald, it’s not about you. It’s about America,” Biden will say in the speech, according to excerpts released by his campaign.

Biden, the front-runner among Democratic presidential contenders, and Trump will both be stumping in Iowa on Tuesday.

Trump is visiting a renewable energy facility in Council Bluffs and will then speak at a Republican Party dinner in West Des Moines.

Biden will be in Iowa for two days, making stops in Ottumwa, Mount Pleasant, Davenport and Clinton.
