Framing Bernie Sanders as a divisive party outsider who won’t accept defeat, the Biden campaign pointed to his bitter primary fight four years ago with Hillary Clinton
The morning after whipping Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden woke up Wednesday to his primary opponent’s first paid negative TV ads attacking him over Social Security and trade.Framing Sanders as a divisive party outsider who won’t accept defeat, the Biden campaign pointed to his bitter Democratic primary fight four years ago with his party nemesis, Hillary Clinton. That ended with a chaotic nominating convention and Donald Trump’s election months later.
“Joe is going to have to explain to the people, the union workers in the Midwest, why he’s supported disastrous trade agreements,” Sanders said. “Joe is going to have to explain to the American people why he voted for a Wall Street bailout, something that I vigorously opposed.” Now flush with cash — Biden advisers said the campaign raised $15 million in three days — the campaign is better positioned to go head-to-head on paid messaging, including television ads that were already running in the next batch of primary states.
