Biden Spox Goes Off on ‘Scammers, Extremists and Racists’ at Trump Fundraiser in Interview With Rev. Al Sharpton on MSNBC

 

A Biden campaign spokesperson sounded off about those who attended former President Donald Trump’s fundraiser in Palm Beach — which the Trump campaign says brought in $50 million.

Speaking with Rev. Al Sharpton on MSNBC’s PoliticsNation Saturday, Biden campaign communications director Michael Tyler bashed those who attended the Trump event.

“He’s down in Mar-A-Lago tonight with a bunch of billionaires,” Tyler said. “People like John Paulson, who not only wants to cut Social Security, but he’s famous for, as a hedge funder, rooting against the American economy, betting against the American economy. So I guess it’s no surprise that he’s investing in somebody like Donald Trump, who’s rooting for the economy to crash.

“But the whole lot of them is a bunch of billionaire scammers, extremist and racists who understand that if they fund Trump’s legal fees, he’s going to cut their taxes while he cuts our Social Security.”

Tyler went on to draw a comparison between how the money is being spent in the two campaigns.

“That’s just the fundamental contrast that you have between the fundraising operation that we’re building up, and how it’s allowing us to communicate with the voters, and the money that Trump’s raising from a bunch of billionaires that’s doing nothing more than paying off his legal fees right now.”
