Biden slams Trump for 'racist attack'

WAUKEE, Iowa — Joe Biden panned President Donald Trump’s recent tweets about four congresswomen as a “racist attack” after Trump said they should “go back” to their countries.

Biden on Monday evening also added a suggestion for Trump.

“He should go home,” Biden said of Trump to yells and cheers. “He should go home.”

Biden made the remarks at a house party hosted by former Iowa governor and ex-U.S. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack.

“The way he spoke about four members of Congress, no matter what you think as a politician, he talks about going back to the awful countries that they’re from — Brooklyn, Michigan,” Biden said, to laughter. “It’s a flat, racist attack.”

If he was smart enough to say this Sunday, I would have been behind him. But he's not, and I'm not.

It was an excellent message and more people are hearing it now and not just what went on Sunday. It's keeping it in the news..

Asked after the event about Republicans not commenting on Trump’s tweet, Biden said: “Most Republicans won’t call the president’s tweets racist. It’s incredibly disappointing.”
