Biden: 'The America I see does not wish to turn our back on the world'

Former Vice President Joe Biden on Saturday called for a strong relationship between the U.S. and its traditional allies.

“The America I see does not wish to turn our back on the world or our closest allies,” Biden said during a security conference in Munich, according to The Washington Post.

“The America I see cherishes a free press, democracy, the rule of law," he added. "It stands up to the aggression of dictators and against strongmen.”

Biden also received a standing ovation at the conference as he criticized President Trump's treatment of traditional European allies, according to The New York Times.

not afraid to go after trump. Wish more would follow his example. Love it that he received a standing ovation. Wonder what Ivanka, Jared and Pence thought of that. Must have infuriated the orange blob.

Hope you/we get the opportunity to restore it, another one of those huge repug messes Dems get to clean up.
