VP Joe Biden: “Trump Is Already Making Our Country Less Safe”

HeadlineAug 16, 2016

Meanwhile, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden held a rally in Scranton, Pennsylvania, on Monday. Scranton is Biden’s hometown. It was Biden’s first campaign appearance on behalf of Hillary Clinton. During his speech, Biden said Trump was making the United States less safe.

Vice President Joe Biden: “Ladies and gentlemen, does he have any idea the adverse consequences these outlandish comments have on our allies, our friends and the physical safety of our troops? Trump is already making our country less safe.”

We’ll have more on Donald Trump’s speech after headlines with Matt Taibbi, Phyllis Bennis, and Linda Sarsour.
