Imperiled Democratic frontrunner Joe Biden seems to be playing up his supposed brand: the wise, fair, experienced leader who's the only Democrat grown-up enough to beat Donald Trump.
Speaking at a Manhattan fundraiser Tuesday night, Biden reminisced to the assembled big-money donors about his "Civil" relationships in the 1970s with racist fellow Democrats and even notorious segregationists such as Mississippi Sen. James Eastland, known as the "Voice of the White South," and Georgia Sen. Herman Talmadge.
"That'd be a first for the Republican Congress," Raddatz's tag-team partner Biden then chimed in.
"The new Republican Party has undertaken the most direct assault on labor, not just in my lifetime without any hyperbole, literally since the 1920s," Biden said.
Biden can't be said to have practiced much civility in 1987, when as the new chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee he outrageously charged before Reagan Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork's chair was warm: "It appears to me that you are saying that the government has as much right to control a married couple's decision about choosing to have a child or not, as that government has a right to control the public utility's right to pollute the air." He would proceed to preside over the Democrats' slanderous destruction of Bork's nomination, the forerunner of the Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh character assassinations.
Most infamous of all, was Biden civil when in August 2012 he told a Virginia audience that included many black Obama supporters that Republicans, if elected, would "Put y'all back in chains"?
Joe Biden as exemplar of civility in politics is a portrait that is about as authentic as his fabricated family history in the September 1987 presidential campaign speech he plagiarized from then-British Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock's Welsh Labour Party conference speech only four months before.
