We all saw this coming.

Donald Trump spent an entire year campaigning for the presidency by hitting back at anyone who dared criticize him. Raised in Queens, and a titan of the dicey and dangerous Manhattan real-estate industry, Trump wasn’t raised to be a soft-skinned nebbish. He was brought up to be a tough-as-nails counterpuncher.

During a speech at the University of Miami, Biden said the following: “They asked me would I like to debate this gentleman, and I said no.

Joe Biden is reportedly considering a presidential run in 2020. It’ll be interesting to see how he talks to Trump once he’s on the campaign trail.
