Biden also blasted Trump for his action on Friday morning when he tweeted around 3a.m
slandering the media and blasting former Miss Universe Alicia Machado
for being used as a tool by Hillary Clinton in her presidential
campaign.
"But his ignorance is so profound, so profound."
"I bet he couldn't carry his bag 18 holes in one of his own golf courses, speaking of energy," Biden said.
"Can you imagine the President getting up at 3:30 in the morning and tweeting vitriol?"
"Since
when does somebody who lives at the top in the world, in a penthouse
overlooking the world, be in a position that he doesn't feel any
obligation at all to pay any federal income tax to support the military,
to support education, to support our foreign policy?" Biden said about
Trump.
"Since when is that a patriotic thing
to do? Can you imagine any other president, any other president, just
ever say that and be proud of that? I can't fathom it."
Biden
also said that despite Trump's promises to challenge the status quo by
becoming president, his proposed tax plan will preserve the tax breaks
he took advantage of.
"What he's
proposing in the tax cut would lock in all of those special interests
from real estate folks and cut their taxes even more," Biden said. "This
is all about Trump. This is all about Trump."
Biden
continued: "What's that say about all the people here? Are they all
suckers for paying their taxes, because they can't hire a tax lawyer,
because they couldn't make significant contributions to try to change
the law to benefit themselves? Come on, man. That's just not right."
The
U.S vice president also said he'll invite Trump to the "battlefield"
with him in Afghanistan and Iraq so that Trump could experience what
soldiers go through after Trump said on Monday that Army veterans suffer from PTSD and 'are weak'.
"I
was asked to present a Silver Star to a young man who had jumped into a
burning Humvee to pull out his buddy after an IED exploded," Biden
said. "And the kid died. The commanding general ... asked me to pin on a
Silver Star, when I was there. You know what the kid said to me? 'I
don't want it. I don't want it. He did not live, sir. He did not live,
sir.' That kid probably goes to sleep every night with a nightmare."
"How can (Trump) be so out of touch and ask to lead this country?" Biden asked.
