Former Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday accused Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and his presidential campaign of taking statements he'd made about Social Security decades ago out of context to hammer him on the issue.
"I find it amazing that we go back and look at statements and many of them, most of them [are] taken out of context of 10, 30, 35 years ago," Biden said during an interview on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
The Democratic front-runner then took the chance to point out some of Sanders's past votes on gun control.
"It's like me going back and pointing out how Bernie voted against the Brady Bill five times while I was trying to get it passed when he was in the House, or how he voted to protect gun manufacturers," he continued. "He's made up for that, he's indicated that was [the] past."
When asked whether he would cut Social Security benefits as president, Biden responded, "No, no, no, no."
"My support for Social Security has been solid my entire career," Biden said. "I did join with a lot of other Democrats to make sure we fix Social Security."
