Trump Says Biden 'Did the Smart Thing' by Not Running for President

  • 9 years ago
Republican frontrunner Donald Trump brought his message to Southeastern Iowa Wednesday telling a crowd of 2,500 that he doesn't think Vice President Joe Biden would have gotten the Democratic nomination and "frankly, I really want to run against Hillary."
"Unfortunately, I believe we're out of time; the time necessary to mount a winning campaign for the nomination," Biden said Wednesday afternoon in the Rose Garden, flanked by his wife Jill and President Obama.
Making his second visit to the eastern section of Iowa, Trump touted his climb in the recent ABC News/Washington Post poll showing the frontrunner with a commanding lead of 32 percent, with former neurosurgeon Ben Carson in second place with 22 percent.
The real estate mogul will be making his first trip as a candidate to Florida this weekend, a stop in Miami Friday night followed by an afternoon rally in Jacksonville Saturday.
