JOE BIDEN/RACISM/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “You know, I used to think that you can defeat bigotry. But it only hides. It only hides. And when it’s given oxygen, like it has happened since Charlottesville with this president and in fact brings up the worst and sort of condones activity that is across the board totally inappropriate.
And we must speak out. We must speak out. We must move on this. We must hold people accountable. It is absolutely essential. There is no alternative but to hold perpetrators accountable and keep speaking about it because I believe the vast majority, the vast majority of the American people of all colors, background, race, religion, think what they saw is absolutely wrong and intolerable.”
