campaign statements and statements coming from Twitter accounts identified with the title of "Sr. Advisor to Joe Biden."

If he wanted to make a personal, off-the-cuff statement, he should have put it on a personal, non-campaign related account -- not an account labeled with his job title that is FULL of political and Biden related tweets.

Biden's the one who should be complaining to his staffer, not me. It isn't something that hurts me -- it hurts Biden.

If I were to vote in a presidential
