Joe Biden Has Three Words for Democratic Candidates Who Took Swipes At Him in California

“Specifically responding to things that you’ve said, Bernie Sanders saying you can’t go back to the past, Elizabeth Warren saying…” Saenz continued.

“Who’s going back to the past?”
Biden interrupted.

"Look, I understand. I don’t blame them,” Biden continued. “They’ve got to, you know, they’re good folks but, you know, as I said, see you around.”

If Beto had accomplished even a fraction of what Biden and Obama have then I might be able take his criticism a little more seriously
