Vice President Joe Biden says, “When I listen to some of the stuff Donald Trump says, it just makes me sad.”

In an interview with Billboard about his “It’s On Us” campaign to end sexual assault on college campuses, Biden said, “It’s never, never been wise to try and appeal to the darker side of human nature.”

Biden was asked, “Do you ever hear Donald Trump speak and think, ‘Boy, I would love to debate that guy?'”

The vice president responded, “When I listen to some of the stuff Donald Trump says it just makes me sad.”

Adding, “Abraham Lincoln was right — it’s about appealing to our better angels. That’s who Americans are and that’s what they want.”
