Trump Has Taken a ‘Wrecking Ball’ to Democracy

Former President Joe Biden delivered a strong critique of his successor, arguing to a room of supporters that President Donald Trump has “taken a wrecking ball” to democracy, CNN reports.

Said Biden: “I knew Trump was going to taking a wrecking ball to the country, but I had no idea, I have to admit, I didn’t know there was going to be an actual wrecking ball.”

At times during the remarks, Biden addressed Trump directly: “You act in a way that embarrasses us as a nation, quite frankly.”
