Former Vice President Joe Biden predicted Tuesday that Republicans will have an "epiphany" and start working with Democrats once President Donald Trump is out of office.
"The thing that will fundamentally change things is with Donald Trump out of the White House. Not a joke," Biden told reporters at a diner in Concord, New Hampshire. "You will see an epiphany occur among many of my Republican friends."
The comment is the latest demonstration of Biden's effort to clash with Trump directly while also appealing to moderate Republicans, showcasing a broad appeal that could help him win a Democratic nominating contest in which voters are more concerned than usual with candidates' perceived electability. But it also highlights a major rift within a 2020 Democratic primary field in which other candidates -- particularly Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren -- are casting Trump as just a symptom of a GOP and a government now controlled by special interests.
Warren, in her campaign kickoff speech in February, said Trump is "just the latest and most extreme symptom of what's gone wrong in America." Sanders said at an Iowa rally earlier this year that the stakes of the campaign are "not just about defeating Donald Trump."
The reaction to Biden's comments from the more liberal quarters of the party also illustrated the skepticism to his candidacy from progressive activists and voters.

“PLUGS!”
...and what do you think they've been doing all this time so far, giving him complimentary Lewinskys?
Wrong. My epiphany came back in the 2016 election
Biden is corrupt and he used his position to funnel bribes to his son, Hunter.
Hey dimwit Joe, we put Trump in office as an epiphany for politicians to straighten their $hit out or get out of the profession.

If you read the majority of comments you will find most people believe Trump is going to win re-election without effort or opposition just because Joe is Joe (or whomever Democrats nominate).
I read these comments every day and reading these comments I don't believe most people understand the fight we're in.
Shouting "RED WAVE" didn't do much for Republicans during the midterms but many people here seemed to believe it would.
I'm all for being positive but Democrats vote as a solid bloc. It won't matter who their candidate is because they're united for one purpose; to vote Trump out of office.
Anyone who believes this is going to be an easy win (again, go back and read the comments) doesn't understand Democrats or politics.
Pence? Cruz?
They have voted as a bloc in the past.
Two caveats: Walkaway and Blexit; women’s monetary contributions to Trump, and Dems sitting this one out.
Vs. large scale unaddressed voter fraud.

All assumptions the stars will align and Trump will win without effort.
Trump had a program to investigate voter fraud.
Can you give me an update on what the commission is doing? Have they reached any conclusions? Have they recommended any safeguards?
Check out that OMG look on that kids face.

“Joe Biden predicts a post-Trump ‘epiphany’ for Republicans”
Well he HAS to predict that the Cabal will win,
and that we will all accept the idea of our servitude,
and forgive our “representatives” for accepting the “Inevitable”.
‘else his masters would be aggrieved.
;-)
God willing, most of the so-called Republicans will be out of office and in prison by the time Trump leaves office (along with most of the Dems).
