Speaking of how Biden ensured former Vice President Kamala Harris would be his replacement on the campaign trail last year, he said, "The reality is she was not a strong candidate and President Biden and his family's narcissism have severely f----- this country. Severely. And that is his legacy."

"I was Saturday afternoon quarterbacking," he said. "I said have a mini 'Shark Tank'-like primary with the best eight candidates - go from two debates with eight, then to four, then to two. It would have dominated the media cycle."

Galloway added that Harris was "not a great candidate," though he praised her efforts in trying to replace her boss. "I think she did a good job given the hand she was dealt with, but this is a candidate who didn't make it to Iowa four years earlier, which says to me America didn't think of her as a great candidate."

The former president has been criticized by his own party in the months following the election for not dropping out of the race soon enough and leaving room for a Democratic primary. Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., argued days after the election that "had the president gotten out sooner, there may have been other candidates in the race." She added, "The anticipation was that, if the president were to step aside, there would be an open primary." 

"I actually think President Biden, you know, the whole endorsing her thirty minutes after he dropped out, I think that was a big f-you to the party," she said several days after Trump's victory. 

During the podcast, Galloway added that Biden's insistence on Harris running, and her subsequent loss will be how he's remembered.

"I will get s--- for this because people are correctly feeling empathy for him, but his legacy, in my view, has been ruined by this," he said. 

Reps for Biden did not immediately reply to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
