Remember when failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said half of Trump supporters belong in a basket of deplorables? Well, Biden almost had a similar moment. He said 10 to 15% of Americans are "not very good people." But you have to look at the whole statement because I refuse to slice and dice his whole comment.
