    That he was a moderate, would make Covid go away, and he would cure cancer. There is more.

    You are the one who claimed that he never called the travel ban racist or xenophobic but then you went on to agree that he implied it.

    You can argue semantics about it all you want but on the campaign trail in 2020 he called it what he called it.

    Isn't it fun spinning in circles trying to defend a hypocrite?

    Oh don't you know?
    Ask bx4, the official party line is to now deny he ever criticized Trump and called it xenophobic or racist.

    It's supposed to disappear down the memory hole at this point, Google is busy as we speak trying to scour it from the internet.

    The word hypocrite is hard for you isn't it, I'm guessing you didn't follow the leftist Trump bashing over suggesting travel bans :wierdface:

    Not only did the hypocrite Biden criticize Trump for doing the same thing but essentially all of the Democrat leadership did as well.

    It's hilarious there is no shame in the double standards.

    Well PolitiFact addresses this and calls it " mostly false "..... Which translates out to we cannot simply deny it so we'll try to spin it!!!

    The fact that they even pretend to be a neutral source is a bad joke.

    The fact that people actually try to present them as a neutral source is an even worse joke

    Hell just back and enjoy the era of hypocrisy and dishonesty of DNC! It's really something to marvel at, the only people they have any credibility with is their base that have been indoctrinated to follow and accept it as gospel ;)

    Yes, I said he didn’t call the Covid travel restrictions racist. I’m right. Biden didn’t do that.

    I did not agree that he implied those restrictions were racist. I said it could be argued that he he did so, but I don’t think he did actually imply that.

    You then go back to claiming that “he called it what he called it”. But I have not seen any comments from Biden about the Covid travel restrictions. None. They may be out there, so feel free to bring them to my attention.

    And by the way, it isn’t “semantics” to point out that a tweet that includes the word “xenophobia” does NOT make any reference to travel restrictions.

    If you haven't seen it then you simply weren't paying attention to the words he spoke on the campaign trail.

    Nor to what the rest of the hypocrites in the Democrat party called Trump for doing the same thing.

    Google is your friend.

    I didn’t follow Biden on the campaign trail. If he actually called the Covid-related travel restrictions racist, I’m sure there’s a record.
    I have searched for such comments on Google but I’ve drawn a blank.
    Maybe you can tell me exactly which comments you are referring to?

    It's now been detected in Canada. Should we immediately close the border?

    I would if we had the data to show that the influx of the variant is coming through the border. Hence why we test and track for the virus.

    Well, I'm having a hard time finding where Biden called the travel bans xenophobic. He called Trump a xenophobia days earlier by the way, so hard to conclude he said it in response to Trump's action.

    If you want an example of hypocrisy, the right was claiming ebola was burning down the country and Obama should be tried for treason after 2 deaths. Contrast that with the hundreds and thousands of deaths from COVID where they said it was just thr flu and no big deal.

    Trump accused him of it, but as you say he called Trump xenophobic before the travel ban was announced. Trump was a bit of a xenophobe, so there is that.......
