  Trump never regretted what I quoted. He was asked to apologize and refused. Biden saying something positive about poor minority children being equal to whites is a bizarre comparison.

    The complaint is that Biden, by using "white" and "poor" as opposites, is fueling class-warfare with skin color as a flimsy proxy.

      Your own link says “ The former vice president's campaign said he "misspoke and immediately corrected himself" during remarks about leveling the playing field for low-income students.” Biden is known to have a stutter and to misspeak frequently. There is no comparable issue to be found here. https://www.npr.org/2016/06/04/480714972/trump-presses-case-that-mexican-judge-curiel-is-biased-against-him https://www.npr.org/2016/06/04/480714972/trump-presses-case-... > Trump made the remarks, and others like it, repeatedly, in interviews with CNN and The Wall Street Journal, referring to Judge Curiel variously as "of Mexican heritage" or just "Mexican." But the message was always the same, that the judge had what Trump called "a conflict" because of his ethnicity.

        I am not the OP, but still, "Biden is known to misspeak frequently" is an exceedingly charitable way to say "He's a gaffe machine." Stutters and similar disorders have nothing to do with it.
