Biden proclaims that 10 to 15 percent of Americans "are just not very good people"
[Daily Mail VIA Right Scoop] Vice President Joe Biden said in a discussion of the George Floyd killing that a large substantial share of Americans are not ’very good people’ — as he tried to condemn President Trump but potentially opened himself up to attack.

’The words a president says matter. So when a president stands up and divides people all the time, you’re going to get the worst of us to come out. The worst insult to com out.’ Biden said.

But he also extended his critique far beyond a small slice of the country. ’Do we really think this is as good as we can be as a nation? I don’t think the vast majority of people think that,’ he continued.

’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. The vast majority of the people are decent, and we have to appeal to that and we have to unite people — bring them together’...

His remarks recalled a gaffe by Hillary Clinton during the 2016 elections, where she said half of Trump’s supporters could be put in a ’basket of deplorables.’ It was a comment that the Trump campaign was able to weaponize as the candidates were battling it out in critical swing states, and that Clinton had to walk back.

#5 Remember out of about 20 DNC presidential candidates the best the Liberal Socialists Democrats had was Joe Biden.

It is clear whomever "They" pick as his VP will be the actual President in less than 2 years.

#6 This sort of language by a political movement ALWAYS precedes the construction of and population of death camps.

For four election cycles now we've gotten this rhetoric from the DNC candidate for president.
