On Saturday, during a campaign event in New Hampshire, former Vice President Joe Biden went on the offensive against fellow Democratic presidential candidate and former Mayor of South Bend, Indiana Pete Buttigieg.
Per The Hill, Biden told reporters that comparisons between Buttigieg and former President Barack Obama — which Buttigieg has made on a number of occasions — do not hold water. Biden told reporters that, unlike Obama, Buttigieg is not offering a “vision” as to what the international order should be, or what the United States economy needs to be like.
“This guy’s not a Barack Obama,” the Delaware Democrat began.
“Barack Obama had laid out a clear vision of what he thought the international society should look like and what the order should be. Barack Obama had laid out in detail what he thought should happen with regard to the economy.”
Biden also hit Buttigieg for being inexperienced, arguing that nominating the 38-year-old for president would put the Democratic Party at risk.
