Joe Biden: Donald Trump is echoing his authoritarian heroes again





Donald Trump is echoing his authoritarian heroes, again—this time using China's anti-democracy talking points to describe the peaceful protests in Hong Kong as "riots." It's shameful.

When people suffering under oppression look to the U.S. for hope, Trump has nothing to offer.








America must defend the values that unite us—we must lead the Free World.

As president, I will remind the world who we are. The United States does not coddle dictators. The United States stands up for democracy.
