Former Vice President Joe Biden, who is mulling a 2020 presidential run, trashed Trump administration policies on an international stage in Munich during the weekend....
Biden 'claimed' that there is a perception that the United States is “pulling away from the world and from [its] leadership abilities.” He then offered the crowd his “insight” into America, adding that the America he sees is “not in wholesale retreat.”
Biden pinned NATO and the “fight against cancer” as the only two topics upon which Republicans and Democrats agree. He expressed pride in a coalition put together in Europe to respond to Russian aggression and NATO and lauded Congress for moving to prevent a U.S. withdrawal from it.
“This is the core of our identity, the very character of the American spirit and our own self-interest,” said the former vice president. “I promise you, I promise you, as my mother would say, this, too, shall pass. We will be back. We will be back. Don’t have any doubt about that.”
He further denounced “self-defeating tariffs and trade wars that are underway.” The Trump administration has been using tariffs to leverage against China’s aggressive trade policies and theft of U.S. intellectual property.
Biden also hit the administration for its approach to “climate change” and leaving the Paris Climate accord.
Also..In a separate panel at the conference, Biden urged, “I think we should be focusing now on what needs to be done to alter some of the policies that are being promoted by the president.”

Why do demonrats constantly complain about tariffs? Each and every single country in the world tariffs the f&$%* out of our goods. Why is that ok?
The new normal of political swamp scum azzholes trashing America overseas to those who are supposedly our allies. Biden needs to go FOAD like Kerry and Obama. Germany has its day of reckoning on the horizon with its future uncertain.

And you want to be my latex salesman!?
He’s not going to run....and if he does it’s just for window dressing to give Biden a stage to spew their stuff. Well over half of the Dems running aren’t really running for President.............they’re using these people to get a political/media stage to reach the public with their agenda....and to offset Trumps rallies like O’rorke did in El paso.
Important to understand their tactics.
The guy has been a puke his entire political career.
I doubt he’d say so...he’s like the old school hollywood stars....they still think they’re the stars they once might have been.
And Trent Lott says that Biden is the only democrat that can beat Trump. Hey Trent, Biden will not be the democratic candidate!
What was this boob doing there?
He has no government role at present
Yeah Beta mariachi rally really offset Trump’s
John F. Kerry and Nancy Pelosi, were both there sitting in the front row, saw the brief footage on Fox. I wasn’t surprised.
The same could be said for many Demorats who are actively opposing Trump and our country on the International stage....Like Kerry and the Obamas and the Clintons....the list goes on and on.
It used to be the case that politics stopped at the water’s edge, but the dims have blown that away big time.
Thanks Grampa

Yep - and you know it will be all over the place once the fight for a chance at the WH starts - probably from some of his own primary opponents....
