Difficult to overstate the miserable state that Obama and Biden left this country in

Biden remarked on terrible things in American life, as if he has had no role whatsoever in crafting the policies that lead to these terrible things in the first place.

If we ever lose that, we begin to lose the soul of the country.

Biden is, of course, behind the 2005 effort to strip bankruptcy protections for millions of Americans.

You would really think from Biden's statement that he did not serve and play a central role in an administration that oversaw the greatest wiping out of middle-class wealth in generations.

In terms of wealth, median total wealth for Americans in 2016 was 34% what it was in 2007.

When Obama left office, the average wealth of the bottom 40% of Americans was minus $8,900.

It is difficult to overstate the miserable and hollow state that Obama and Biden left this country in.
