Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union speech, a general policy exercise which, a few months before the presidential election, mainly took on the features of a campaign speech. The 81-year-old Democrat mentioned his “predecessor” 13 times, whom he is almost guaranteed to face again in the November presidential election.
“The question for our country is not our age, it is the age of our ideas. Hate, anger, revenge, resentment are the oldest ideas there is,” he said. Joe Biden criticized Donald Trump's proximity to the powerful gun lobby, when he wants to ban semi-automatic rifles.
