After Joe Biden's apology for fond reminiscences of work with segregationist senators, uttered at a June 18 Manhattan fundraiser, the Bernie Sanders campaign is taking aim at another line by the former vice president that same night.
“We may not want to demonize anybody who has made money,” Biden said that evening, per a pool report. “Nobody has to be punished. No one’s standard of living will change, nothing would fundamentally change. Because when we have income inequality as large as we have in the United States today, it brews and ferments political discord and basic revolution.”
In a Democratic primary season where "change" is the watchword for more than 20 Democrats seeking to challenge President Trump, Sanders’ presidential campaign has already weaponized Biden’s words.
