NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former President Donald Trump is once again making headlines for his controversial remarks.

During an interview on 'Fox & Friends' on Friday, the former president made a bizarre comment to a 6-year-old child, telling them that if Vice President Kamala Harris were to be elected president, the United States "won’t have any cows," as per The Hill.

His comments immediately triggered a wave of online mockery and criticism, with many questioning his fitness to hold office.

The incident occurred when a recorded video of the child asking Trump about his favorite farm animal was played during the interview.

Trump’s response was anything but typical. “I’ll tell you what I love, I love cows, but if we go with Kamala, you won’t have any cows anymore,” he said, adding, “I don’t want to ruin this kid’s day.”

Trump didn’t stop there, continuing his attack on Harris, calling her a “radical left lunatic.”

His comments were clearly intended to paint the vice president and the Democratic Party as extreme, but his claims about the future of cows under a Harris administration left many scratching their heads.

This wasn’t the first time Trump has made this outlandish claim.

In fact, he has repeatedly stated that Democrats, including Harris, want to rid the country of cows.

During a campaign event in North Carolina earlier this year, Trump made similar comments.

“They just come up, they want to do things like no more cows and no windows in buildings. They have some wonderful plans for this country, honestly they’re crazy,” he said.

Trump’s bizarre obsession with cows resurfaced again just days before his 'Fox & Friends' interview.

While speaking at a rally with Hispanic voters in Nevada, he reiterated his claims, suggesting that Democrats have a radical agenda to not only ban cows but also to remove windows from buildings.

The former president has frequently used these talking points to criticize the environmental policies proposed by Democrats, particularly those related to climate change and the Green New Deal.

However, fact-checkers and experts have repeatedly debunked Trump’s claims, pointing out that there is no Democratic proposal to eliminate cows or windows.

Trump's comments about cows and his dig at Kamala Harris spark trolling online

Trump’s comments about cows and his dig at Harris quickly made waves on social media, where users did not hold back in expressing their disbelief and disdain.

One person remarked, "He's out of his mind. He needs to be in a mental hospital and not running for president." Another said, "Trump is mentally ill!"

"He’s just plain crazy," wrote one person.



 



 



 

Another added, "#DementiaDon is clearly unfit to hold any office, much less the office of POTUS." One individual wrote, "All you had to do was answer a child's question and NOT make it about your opponent, dumbass."



 



 

Another pointed out, "This is getting sad. Seriously, Americans, show some sympathy for this dottard and send him home or to some kind of place where professionals will take care of him for the rest of his days." One netizen remarked, "He enjoys lying. It’s a thrill for him. And it’s sinister."
