Biden stated that the majority of Americans want a steady hand, leadership and an optimist. He also added that he was not looking for an angry man who lurches from one place to another.
Biden had suggested that McCain, a former Vietnam POW/Navy pilot and Navy pilot was cowardly, weeks before he asked during a New Mexico speech: “Who is the real Barack Obama?”
Biden replied, “In my neighbourhood where I came from, if you have something to say to someone man look him in his eye and say it,”
Biden and McCain had a long-standing friendship, which deteriorated in 2008. However, they reconciled before the 2020 presidential election. Cindy McCain supported Biden over Donald Trump.
