JoeBiden Dems help blacks by giving them aid, making them dependent on the gov. A sort of soft slavery. Trump gave them jobs, making them more independent. Blacks should know who to vote for.

Well hell, JoeBiden is right. Any person of color who votes for realDonaldTrump or any of his GOP allies is voting against their own interests. Period full stop. Charlottesville anyone? Biden should not apologize for speaking truth.

Take politics out of the equation, this is 100% not ok no matter where you stand

My favorite part is watching leftist supporters defend their party implosion

Look black

Wait, WHAAAAATTTT?!? 🙅🏽‍♀️ I cannot with this today Blexit

Lol. I hold my breath every time I see Joe talking.

More evidence (not that we need any) that the corrupt af DNC prefers 4 more years of sweet Trump tax breaks to giving workers a voice. We see your false choice and we're tired of the illusion of democracy. Its time for pitchforks & guillotines to trend. EatTheRich

A white man with borderline dementia and senility is now telling people how to be black notice he ain’t try to say that shit about Spanish people he knows better than to try that dumb shit with us we’re not falling for that garbage what’s sad is I’m reading blacks defending him🤦🏾‍♂️

Is that not the mindset of racism

Please avoid the gaffs. I am behind you but please don't self destruct.

Stop reaching. I’m still not voting for Trumpstain so....

My family from Maine sincerely helped black slaves vacate away from the Confederacy and slavery during and post the Civil War harder than your quote.

Tall order..

This and dementia pretty sum up his whole campaign

Did I actually read this?

Seriously what?

Thanks forbes for leading with this. Making a gaffe appear racist/stupid for the click bait. What have you learned since 2016? WTF?

How dis this guy win the primary lmao

Don’t start the circle firing squad. Most black people don’t care about this comment. This is conservative media trying to kick up dust. Unpopular opinion : no one cares how white people feel black people “should” feel about this comment.

How is this guy the only choice we have versus Trump? We need to take a hard look in the mirror

Welp, that about does it...show’s over.

Ever since Dems made the Black man his slave, they seem to think that they are still their slave and must obey

Atta boy Joe...put them in chains
