Well he needs more money because he's entering the tiny field of Democratic candidates for president.

Why not if that’s where you came from?

Where you came from is not the same as where you are.
Saying someone came up from middle class is fine. Americans love a success story.

Someone claiming they are middle class when they are a millionaire is not.

Joe Biden hasn’t had to worry about $$$ since Richard Nixon was President. Since then, he’s had the same firsthand knowledge of middle-class life as Donald Trump.

I have to give Joe some credit here, when he left the Senate he was one of the least wealthy, and there's little if any indication he ever profited or used his office to enhance his wealth. I would imagine his wealth did not increase significantly as VP, and that he has cashed in since he left office.

Good for him -

I'll talk your ass off for an hour for a lot less than that! I'd probably be more entertaining than old Comfort Zone Violater too.
