| xp1337 11/22/19 5:00:06 PM #331: | Speaking of Biden (not a reaction to the above, I was about to post this; timing was a coincidence) https://twitter.com/ericbradner/status/1197686251819810816 yikes Biden's "You should vote for Trump" is really awful here. At best it's just atrociously tone deaf. At worst, and I really do believe this is closer to what was going on here, he's just brazenly dismissing the concerns of disadvantaged people and taking them for granted because the Republicans are worse. That's putting aside the actual issue being discussed. I don't think the position I believe Biden is representing as the video goes on - that pledging to end all deportations is bad policy if you're being absolute about it and not allowing for cases of serious felony offenders - is out of bounds but god that initial brush off is so terrible. I also don't know that he makes the point on the substance too well either, maybe it's the volume of the clip, but I've seen some people take it as Biden calling illegal entry a felony which I don't believe he was doing there but he didn't phrase it in the most clear way so I can understand why a snap reaction might take it that way. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...
