Joe Kennedy III Hits Trump: You Stand Up to Bullies and Anyone Who Seeks to Scapegoat

RUSH EXCERPT:

KENNEDY III: "Look, I think it is about anybody that seeks to scapegoat. We learned from a little kid when somebody is exhibiting that type of behavior, you stand up to the folks they are taking it out on. The remarks that I tried to highlight last night is that our country has always aspired to be that unifying force, that city on a hill, if you will, that example of what society that is open and fair looks like. I don’t see any action out of this president. We heard nice words about unifying the country. Look, there is not a single person out there against it. This isn’t just about one person. It isn’t just about the president of the United States. This is also about who we are as a country, who we are as a nation, who we aspire to be. And about a message I think Democrats need to be putting forward. It gets back to the core of who we are and what we stand for. And so while obviously, yes, the speech was a response to the president’s state of the union. It was, in effect about the character in which he has been leading the country. It was also my hope bigger than that."
