Well, that didn’t take long. Joe Biden apologized to black business leaders for telling “The Breakfast Club” show host Charlamagne tha God that he “ain’t black” if he can’t tell the difference between him and President Trump.

“I should not have been so cavalier. I’ve never, never, ever taken the African-American community for granted,” Biden said, according to the Associated Press. “I shouldn’t have been such a wise guy.”

Biden added that, ‘No one should have to vote for any party based on their race, their religion, their background,’ on a conference call with the U.S. Black Chamber of Commerce Friday afternoon.

Among those who criticized Biden for what he said was Diddy, a/ka Sean Combs who tweeted:

“Aye bruh @JoeBiden I already told you the #BlackVoteAintFree.”

And as we reported earlier, President Trump and his surrogates also pounced and took advantage of Biden’s rather interesting comment. Namely, black Trumpster Paris Dennard. In an email to EURweb, he informed us of these thoughts:

“Joe Biden just told every black American who supports President Trump that they aren’t black. And to Biden’s point that he wants people to look at his record, let’s do that.

“On the issues of criminal justice alone, Biden is responsible for the 1994 crime bill which ‘many experts now associate with mass incarceration.’

Biden’s crime bill doubled imprisonment from 1994 to 2009, and instituted the “three strikes and you’re out” rule.

And it wasn’t just the federal prison system that Biden’s bill affected. MSNBC reported, Biden’s bill “influenced states to increase their prison rolls” too.

It wasn’t until President Trump was elected that the wrongs of Biden’s legislative history have begun to be righted. President Trump signed criminal justice reform into law with the First Step Act.”

Earlier, we reported that Democratic presumptive presidential nominee Joe Biden made the questionable comment to Charlamagne tha God at the end of an 18-minute interview that aired Friday morning on “The Breakfast Club,” where the former vice president was forced to defend his record supporting black America.
