When he was around attractive women, Mr. Trump said, “I just start kissing them,” adding, “I don’t even wait.” When you are famous, he said, you could do anything, including, “Grab ’em by the pussy.”

Stormy Daniels, a pornographic film actress, has also accused the president of trying to buy her silence a month before the election about an extramarital affair, describing in graphic detail the sexual relationship he had with her shortly after he married his third wife, Melania. Mr. Trump has denied there was any affair.

Democrats immediately accused Mr. Trump of having no moral standing to criticize Mr. Biden’s behavior.

“He refers to women as pigs. He rates women on their looks on a scale from 1 to 10. He comments about how his own daughter is hot, and that if she wasn’t his daughter, he would date her,” said Patti Solis Doyle, who served as Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign manager. “Hypocrisy doesn’t even begin to explain this tweet. He’s going to lose on women voters. Doing this is only making it worse.”

Mr. Trump’s video popped online after two days during which he seemed to sidestep any direct attacks on Mr. Biden’s behavior.

“I do wish him luck,” he told reporters on Wednesday before a briefing with senior military leaders, when asked if he had any advice for Mr. Biden, who is still expected to announce his entry into the 2020 presidential field in the coming weeks.

Speaking Tuesday in front of a fund-raising dinner for the National Republican Congressional Committee, Mr. Trump noted that the former vice president was “being taken care of pretty well by the socialists.”
