Biden, in Philly, rips Trump’s debate performance: ‘What in the hell?’
Biden, in Philly, rips Trump’s debate performance: ‘What in the hell?’
Vice President Joe Biden says he’s known in Washington as “Middle Class Joe,” a man of the people. So he felt comfortable dropping dozens of zingers aimed straight at Donald Trump Tuesday in Philly.
Biden was stumping for Hillary Clinton at Drexel’s Great Court space just hours after she wrapped up her first presidential debate against Trump. He’s campaigning for Clinton and pushing civic engagement for National Voter Registration Day. (Still need to register to vote in Pennsylvania? You can do so online here.
The deadline is Oct. 11.)
And after entering the stage saying “I’m Joe Biden and I work for Hillary Clinton” and throwing out a quick shoutout to Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, he took aim at Trump’s debate performance, the GOP nominee’s tax plan, his failure to release his own tax returns and the impact a Trump presidency could have on “America’s standing in the world.”
Here are six of Biden’s best — yeah, we’ll stick with that term — zingers:
1. ‘Donald Trump is painfully uninformed’
Biden started his talk to students at Drexel by slamming Trump’s performance during last night’s debate, saying the candidate didn’t deny that he doesn’t pay anything in federal taxes and saying that’s an affront to blue-collar Americans.
“Donald Trump is painfully uninformed,” Biden said, “and his policies are not very helpful for this country. But what bothers me about this race — and I know I’m sort of a one-man broken record on this — is how palpable his cynicism is about the American people.
“He acknowledged that he didn’t pay taxes, he said, because he’s smart. It makes him smart. Tell that to the janitor here who’s paying taxes. Tell that to my dad who, when he was alive… paid all his taxes. Tell that to your mothers and fathers breaking their necks to send you here. It angers me.”
