Biden mocks Trump: 'No one wants their kid to grow up like him'

The former vice president was addressing a crowd of about 80 people at international law firm O’Melveny & Myers in New York City on Monday. While there, he answered questions from attendees on how the nation should proceed if the president is impeached by the House this week but acquitted by the Senate in a trial that would likely take place next year.

Even if Trump is acquitted, Biden said, "The American people, including the senators who are going to vote to acquit him, know no one wants their kid to grow up like him," according to a pool report from the event.

"No psychiatrist or anyone in the association can talk about the fact that this president has a serious problem," he continued. "Narcissism is a mental deficiency. And it means you cannot tolerate any criticism at all."

He added, "Now, whether he's a narcissist or not, some people think he's a narcissist."

The union said the sides came to terms on increasing compensation by 25%, cutting health-care costs by 50% and bolstering job security after Monday evening talks.

Workers had planned to picket during the debate if they did not reach a deal before Thursday. Last week, all seven candidates who were scheduled to take the stage in the debate said they would skip the event if necessary rather than cross a picket line.
