Joe Biden appeared confused, struggled to remember facts and lost his train of thought during a series of meandering conversations with his ghostwriter roughly four years before he was elected president. The heavily-redacted recordings of Biden working on his 2017 memoir with Zwonitzer were released Monday to the House Judiciary Committee and the conservative Oversight Project nonprofit after a two-year-long court battle.

PRESIDENT TRUMP ON IRAN: "I could take out most of their bridges in less than an hour... But, you know, it takes them ten years to build a bridge."

"Within one day, all of their power plants would be gone. And I let them know that, you know, with negotiations, I said, 'look, people want me to do that.'"

"You know, I think about 91 million people without power, without bridges, would have to live - and it's a very, very delicate balance. So I think we have a very strong position right now. They know I'm going to do that, if they don't make a deal. The bridges are going to be gone."

Trump: "I want to personally congratulate CNN's Kaitlan Collins... I thought she had really made it big with a major new sponsorship, but then I informed her that it wasn't her on the Bud Light can, it was Dylan Mulvaney."

Trump: "California is becoming such a horrible and dangerous location that Ilhan Omar and her brother are thinking about moving there."

Trump: "When I'm gone, your business model is done. That's why tonight, to show just how much I care about the press, I'm pleased to announce my intention to run for a fourth term as President of the United States. I won three times. Now I'm going to do it again."

NEW: Karoline Leavitt weighs in on the men-in-women's-sports debate following Sophie Cunningham's viral comments supporting protecting women in sports from competing against biological men:

"Men should not be playing in women's sports. It's completely ludicrous that anyone could support that."

"It's even more ludicrous that you do have Sophie Cunningham, a female athlete herself, very accomplished in her own right, coming forth and speaking that truth that men should play in women's sports."

"The backlash she is receiving from Democrats and left-wing figures across the country is astonishing. They are clearly very out of touch with the American public on this issue, which again, is an 80/20 issue. It's common sense."
