He said I would lose my savings and retirement when Biden took office and yet, my retirement grew substantially under Biden. Interesting.

[DGW]

I hate to break it to you, Joe, but Black people have known, and had to deal with, these types of Americans for generations. They're Americans.

[johnmatelski]

could you imagine being the wife of the man who was shot dead at his PA rally, and hearing him say this??? This is so far beyond the pale.

The worst thing about Trump isn't what we've learned about him, it's what we've learned about our family, friends and neighbors that still support him.

[Mclaren]

He hasnt twisted their views, Joe... he's allowed their views to be acceptable.

[dominoep]

The people clapping, that's how they and their friends and family talk and act in private.

[debrahumphrey]

You've got uneducated people homeschooling their kids in several states!!! This is exactly how we got here!!! STUPID teaching STUPID NAH WE'RE NOT GOING BACK!!! VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙

People with the mindset of these people raised them. They get it from parents and grandparents spewing the same junk. These are people that don't feel good about themselves so no one else is safe. They need to blame others for their economic failures.

[pawelkapica]

A man saying he is ok with people getting shot is a sociopath!

[calvinwomack]

Joe, you're wrong about them not coming from where you come from. At the rallys, they find like minded people who share their values and a leader who gives them permission. They've always been here. They just don't care to hide it anymore thanks to their leader who says the quiet parts out loud for them.

[MonteRosa]

“Who raised these people who are laughing and clapping at trump’s despicable lines”? That is exactly the right question, Joe!! Hilary Clinton has the right answer to that question…..

[temperlore]

As a mother of 2 adult men, I have been shaking my head in shock for months now. If those were my children in his crowds I would disown them. And these people walk among us!

[winkieblink]

The crowd also laughed at the Liz Cheney firing squad comment.

[sayjay]

I'm with Joe "Who raised them?"

[robraleigh]

These people were raised by Fox, Rush Limbaugh, etc. in the land of alternative viewpoints.

[adrianbjones]

"Economic understanding of a child" coming from the guy who went bankrupt 6 times!

[OpticsOnOrganisms]

Former guy is so full of it and full of hate. Despicable. Vote Blue

[renes]

When Donald Trump mocked a disabled NYT reporter back in 2015 it told me that this man is not a good person. Vote for decency, respect, civility, and sanity. 💙

[i.m.askance]

Hillary was absolutely correct when she called some of Trump's supporters deplorables. He has brought out the dark underbelly of this country.

[Jeanparker-en]

What bothers me, the people were laughing
