Biden was a big enough man to apologize for what was a hot mic situation. He never intended to broadcast his disapproval of the idiot's questions, but was good enough to apologize for causing the man some embarrassment.

Apologize? Zero chance. Our job was to call him a son of a bitch back, not try to clutch our pearls about his language.

The response to Trump that would have worked was, "Sure Donny, let me see you tell a single one of them that they're sons of bitches to their face, little man."
