Biden: Reagan Couldn’t Win Nomination in Modern ‘Extreme’ GOP

 

Vice President Joe Biden riffed a little after a presser in Dubai today about how Ronald Reagan couldn’t win the Republican nomination in the modern GOP.

Biden argued, “He could no more get the nomination of the Republican party than I could get the nomination. I’m not joking.”

He lamented the “movement to the extreme” in the GOP in how they talk about things like torture.

The veep also indirectly went after Donald Trump for basically proposing war crimes (before realizing he needed to backtrack on that).
