There is only one person who can out-Trump Donald Trump in national politics, and that person is Joe Biden.

Prior to Trump, Biden was the king of gaffes and outrageous assertions, and the vice president nearly reclaimed his title at a campaign stop in Pennsylvania on Friday. Asked whether he wanted to debate Trump, Biden said he would prefer to take him "behind the gym."

"Press always ask me, ‘Don’t I wish I were debating him?’” Biden said. “No, I wish we were in high school and I could take him behind the gym.”

Biden had been discussing the sexual assault allegations levied against Trump, as well as the Access Hollywood video released earlier this month.

"What he said and did and does is the textbook definition of sexual assault,” Biden shouted. “He said because I am famous, because I am a star, because I am a billionaire I can do things other people cant. What a disgusting assertion for anyone to make."

Nobody may want to watch this election anymore, but everyone would want to watch this fight.

BONUS: Donald Trump just dropped a superb Melania joke
