He accused the Vermont senator of having 'never gotten anything done' in his lengthy political career.
Biden said both Sanders and Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren's health care plans would require people in Nevada, where the next primary will take place, to give up"all private insurance." He said neither Sanders nor Warren can tell Americans"who can pay for" their sweeping proposals."I mean come on, people are so tired of the lack of straightforwardness.
Biden said he's up against"fanciful" $30 to $40 trillion Medicare for all proposals from Sanders and Warren which he said will never work out."Part of being president is not just the idea you have, but can you get it done?" "You know me well enough to know if any of my supporters did that, I'd disown them. Flat disown them. The stuff that was said online, the way they threatened these two women who are leaders in that culinary union, it is outrageous, Just go online. The things they said, the vicious, malicious misogynistic things they said, the threats they put out," Biden continued.
