Biden says Trump has ‘no clue’ about needs of middle class
“There are pockets of America that never recovered from factory closures, men who took pride in hard work and providing for their families who now feel forgotten”, Mr Obama said.
Barack Obama warned Donald Trump is a threat to America’s values during a Democratic Convention speech in which he said: “homegrown demagogues will always fail”. “He has no clue what makes America great”, Biden said. “These guys don’t know what they’re talking about”, Biden said.
Obama repeatedly summoned Reagan’s hope and optimism Wednesday night as Democrats try to attract disenchanted Republican voters uneasy about Donald Trump’s claim to the GOP mantle and fearful about a possible presidency.
Obama is scheduled to address the Democratic convention Wednesday evening. He said Clinton’s life story has been about helping those who need helping. Biden said Trump “has no clue” about the needs of working-class people or what makes the nation great. His lack of empathy and compassion can be summed up in the phrase he’s most proud of and made famous: ‘You’re fired.’ Think about that.
“I love Joe Biden”, said Tammie Lewis, a MI delegate.
Biden and Bloomberg both gave the public plenty to talk about, delivering fiery endorsements of Clinton, the first woman to be a major party candidate for president, early in the night. Biden said he has known Clinton for more than 30 years, served with her in the U.S. Senate, and even had a weekly breakfast at his home while she served as secretary of state. “Actually, he has no clue, period”, Mr. Biden said, riffing on Mr. Trump’s campaign slogan.
In response to a question on whether Obama would find “the possibility of Trump having access to nuclear codes” frightening, the president – without saying Trump’s name – dished out some harsh criticism.
Tonight President Barack Obama will tell the American people why Hillary Clinton would be the best choice to follow him as the president of the United States. “We can not elect a man who belittles our closest allies while embracing dictators like Vladimir Putin”.
“Everybody knows she’s smart, everybody knows she’s tough, but I know what she’s passionate about”. You can read about it… you can study it…
“That’s the Hillary I know”, Obama told the energized crowd in the Wells Fargo Center.
