Donald Trump assures us he would take down Biden.
Crazy Joe Biden is trying to act like a tough guy. Actually, he is weak, both mentally and physically, and yet he threatens me, for the second time, with physical assault. He doesn’t know me, but he would go down fast and hard, crying all the way. Don’t threaten people Joe!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 22, 2018
I'm reminded of Michael Kimmel's point about proving masculinity. The quest to prove one's manhood, sadly, never ends for many men. Here's Kimmel is his 1996 book Manhood in America. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Men are constantly trying to prove that they are the tougher guy. But could this because of society or evolution? Or are many of these "tough guys" really just insecure? I personally think it is a combination of all three.

Hi Nam. Thanks for reading and taking time to comment. You bring up a good point about insecurity. We might say it's socially conditioned insecurity!
