US President Joe Biden issued sarcastic remarks about the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump — who will face the incumbent commander-in-chief in November 2024 — by congratulating him on his achievement Sunday.

The former president Donald Trump expressed his victory on his social media platform Truth Social: "It is my great honor to be at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach tonight, AWARDS NIGHT, to receive THE CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY & THE SENIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP TROPHY. I WON BOTH! A large and golfing talented membership, a GREAT and difficult course, made the play very exciting."

The post went on: "The qualifying and match play was amazing. A large and distinguished group will be there tonight. Very exciting, thank you!!!"

Joe Biden — a Democrat — quoted a post and wrote in a sarcastic manner, saying: "Congratulations Donald. Quite an achievement."

The 81-year-old became the President of the US after winning the 2020 election from Trump.

The jibe came after his fiery address in Congress on March 8, 2024, in which Biden went on hard on the 77-year-old for his favourable comments to Russia, prohibiting a deal to cut immigration and making ground for strict abortion laws in the country.

"If anybody in this room thinks Putin will stop at Ukraine, I assure you, he will not," Biden said while referring to his predecessor in his final State of the Union address.
