Joe Biden Recalls The Old Days Of Having Lunch With ‘Real Segregationists’ – Again | The Daily Wire "President Joe Biden is catching heat for remarking on the old days of having lunch with “real segregationists” during an event in Ohio, but readers should keep in mind that this isn’t the first time Biden has made such comments. In fact, during the 2020 campaign, then-Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) rebuked similar statements made by Biden as being “misinformed and … wrong.” While appearing on stage in Hamilton, Ohio, with Senators Sherrod Brown (D-OH) and Rob Portman (R-OH) on Friday, the president went off on a tangent regarding the apparent lack of civility in D.C. nowadays that America sees from the halls of Congress. “You know, things have kinda changed since the days when I first got there …” Biden said, Townhall noted. “We always used to fight like hell.” “Even back in the old days when we had real segregationists like [James] Eastland and [Strom] Thurmond and all those guys, but [at least] we end up eating lunch together,” the president added. “Things have changed, we’ve gotta bring it back,” he added before complimenting Portman on his character."
