Sen. Chris Coons, a close Biden ally, argued Sunday that the president’s mishandling of classified documents is not something that Americans consider a leading issue.
“I also don’t think that this is an issue that’s keeping Americans up at night. I think they’re worried about much more day-to-day things like inflation, prices at the pump, prescription drug prices,” the Delaware Democrat said on ABC’s “This Week.” “Our president is making real progress in our economy, in our place in the world, in reducing prescription drug prices and in helping the average American family.”
Lawyers for Mr. Biden revealed Saturday that the FBI discovered more classified materials at his home in Wilmington, Delaware, drawing more scrutiny about how the commander-in-chief has handled sensitive records from his time in the Senate and as vice president.
