so personal, threatening to DOX, expose, out and destroy the lives of actual human beings with names and families working on this campaign.

I guess that crossed a line for the campaign. Try to see the ad, because it's specifically calling out a type of behavior that no campaign should ever accept (like bringing a coffin to a Joe Biden private fundraiser, using extreme profanity against private persons, etc...)

He had to defend his own employees from disgusting threats No doubt, he'd rather be attacking Trump. But you have to stand up for your people.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
