Joe Biden's remarks drew comparisons to comments by Hillary Clinton 2016 that half of Trump's supporters were part of a "basket of deplorables."
Former Vice President Joe Biden told supporters during a virtual town hall on Thursday he estimated 10 to 15% of Americans were"not very good people" but said the majority were"decent" people whom the president should work towards uniting.
Ryan Wilson, the CEO of the Gathering Spot in Atlanta, Georgia, had asked Biden how he was going to lead differently and what he would do for black Americans,"if it's true that you can't truly lead people if you don't love people." "It's about the attitude of the country – is this really as good as we think we can be as a nation?" Biden said. "I don’t think the vast majority of people think that. There are probably anywhere from 10 to 15 percent of the people out there that are just not very good people, but that’s not who we are."
So, we’ve learned NO lessons from the “deplorables” fiasco. If you’re running for President, its of ALL Americans. Even the ones you don’t like.
