Former Vice President Joe Biden made a veiled swipe at President Donald Trump during Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) memorial service in Pheonix, passionately shouting that McCain would only choose to disassociate himself with someone who “lacked the basic values of decency, respect.”


“It wasn’t about politics with John,” Biden said. “He could disagree on substance, it was the underlying values that animated everything John did, everything he was. You come to a different conclusion, but where he’d part company with you, is if you lacked the basic values of decency, respect, knowing this project is bigger than yourself.”

1. Funny

Everyone knows it's Trump when anyone mentions a lack of basic values like decency and respect. Speaks volumes.

2. Everyone knew..

3. Trump will never have a send off like this.

Nor will it be attended by the masses, nor have eulogies so endearing and uplifting as this.

For Trump has exemplified everything WRONG about humanity. The disrespect will be having the American flag on his coffin, folded and handed to whomever has been designated to receive it. I will not be watching this.

6. Oh, I disagree. It will be a record attendance like his inauguration. That will be his last word.

11. Biden also said something like everyone in the world respected the US...until recently

I wonder what (or who) he could be talking about!
