Asked if he’s considered what happens if he wins and Trump refuses to leave, Biden says: “Yes I have” Appears to be some editing, but Biden then talks about military personnel speaking out “I’m absolutely convinced they will escort him form the White House with great dispatch.” — PolitiTweet.org

“People know me and they know me warts and all,” Joe Biden says. “I have weaknesses, for real.” Asked what they are: “I always say what I think,” he says. “I sometimes make political gaffes. You know the old expression, a gaffe in Washington is a political telling the truth." — PolitiTweet.org

Biden: "Everybody deserves to be treated dignity. That's how I was raised. You could never..make fun of anyone. You could never talk about anybody with anything they didn't control. Whether it was my stutter or someone being African-American or having a club foot —no matter what" — PolitiTweet.org

Biden credits cell phones with the reaction to George Floyd’s death, people able to see rather than hear or read about it. "What happens when you saw him unable to breath? His face jammed up against that curb. His face contorted,” Biden said. “The whole world saw the brutality." — PolitiTweet.org

Matt Viser @mviser

Biden says he's "very concerned” McConnell will ask judges to retire so Trump can appoint more "I'm going to urge the Democrats in the US Senate to block the ability to have a vote on those judges. Because we are in the middle of an election...We’re not going to let that happen" — PolitiTweet.org

"I’ve been told all along that young people think I’m not in the right place,” Joe Biden says, growing a bit agitated at questions over the crime bill. "There is no polling to sustain that. There is no voting that has sustained that.” “Watch me,” he adds. — PolitiTweet.org
