Former Vice President Joe Biden raised the question of his 2020 ambitions with a speech targeting the Trump administration Saturday night at the Human Rights Campaign's annual dinner in Washington.
Former President "Barack [Obama] and I agreed we would be quiet for the first year to let the new administration get up and running. God forgive me," Biden said. "This is deadly earnest. We are in a fight for America's soul."
Both Biden and his wife, Jill Biden, who also spoke, described President Trump as a "bully," and there's "nothing that makes either of us more angry than a bully," Jill Biden said. Watch a clip of her comments below. Bonnie Kristian
