Former VP Joe Biden has been on the campaign trail in Iowa this week, where he has lagged in recent polls. Yesterday, he sat down with JohnJHarwood to discuss everything from taxes to Trump.
Well, that was actually a little bit of fun. The fact is that we have a great bus tour. We have about 660 miles. We're going in day six. We've had a couple thousand people show up. They're enthusiastic. It was interesting the response of the crowd when that fellow spoke up.Let me ask you a little bit about how you get your program passed. You've made the argument that Trump's an aberration.
He said, "We don't have time." Everything but locusts landed on his desk. It wasn't until Republicans started taking it away that all of a sudden people said, "Whoa, I didn't know that that's where I got that from." I know is not going to sound good on television, but you know there's an awful lot of chicken manure in Delaware because it was a big area. There's an awful lot of hog manure and cattle. Well guess what? We've learned now how to pelletize that. Take out the methane, use it for energy and be able to sell this pure stuff that is not damaging the environment abroad. We're going to see little factories springing up all over this area. Or for example, ethanol.
They know that there are a number of things that don't make any sense in the tax code, punish the working class, the middle-class and benefit unduly people who, in fact, don't need those tax cuts. No, because we're in a different place now. I hope it's not true, but we're likely to inherit a recession, at least a significant economic slowdown. That doesn't make sense.No, not then. Everything's context. One of the reasons I like giving an interview with you is you know the context. I'm not being a wise guy. 1995 was a very different place than we find ourselves today.
