      With Biden being connected to the democratic party and directly connected to Harris, any critical comments may have a chance of being flipped back towards them. The MAGA campaign is just that maliciously vindictive.

      A comment like that gave Trump fodder to try to spin it like he’s the good guy, despite all of this being initiated by a comic at his rally.

      Trump and his campaign have been trying to shift the blame off of them. First, with saying that the joke (just one joke?) didn’t reflect the view of the campaign. Then, Trump mentioned in an interview that the comic probably shouldn’t have been there, yet he was able to finish his set, uninterrupted. Now Trump took Biden’s (misspoken) comment and compared it with Clinton’s previous, calling the supporters “deplorable”.
