Actress and activist Cynthia Nixon in a tweet went after Biden for complimenting 'America's most anti-LGBT elected leader.'
FILE - In this Jan. 24, 2019, file photo, Former Vice President Joe Biden speaks during the U.S. Conference of Mayors Annual Winter Meeting in Washington. Democratic presidential candidates are touting their support for “Medicare-for-all,” higher taxes on the wealthy and a war on climate change. But foreign policy is largely taking a back seat. Biden is seizing on that opening to position himself as the global policy expert if he decides to run for president.
Responding directly to Nixon, Biden tweeted,"You're right, Cynthia ... There is nothing decent about being anti-LGBTQ rights, and that includes the Vice President." Speaking on a recent security conference in Munich that both Pence and Biden attended, the former vice president on Thursday said,"The fact of the matter is it was followed on by a guy who's a decent guy, our vice president, who stood before this group of allies and leaders and said, 'I'm here on behalf of President Trump,' and there was dead silence. Dead silence."
