Joe Biden said Trump was unfit to be elected to the white house on Nov.8.read more.


US Vice President Joe Biden accused Republican
presidential nominee Donald Trump of being an
opportunist who had no clue about how to make
America great.
Speaking at the Democratic Party convention on
Wednesday night to endorse Hillary Clinton as
the party's presidential nominee, Biden took aim
at Trump's trademark reality TV slogan, "You're
fired," saying the billionaire businessman's
"cynicism" was unbounded.
"Think about that," Biden said. "How can there
be pleasure in 'you're fired'?"
"He has no clue about what makes America
great. Actually, he has no clue - period."
Biden said Trump was unfit to be elected to the
White House on Nov. 8.
"The threats are too great, the times are too
uncertain, to elect Donald Trump as president of
the United States," he said.
Grabbing the spotlight at a news conference in
Miami earlier in the day, Trump urged Russia to
find and release tens of thousands of emails that
Clinton did not hand over to US officials as part
of a probe into her use of a private email system
while she was secretary of state.
"Russia, if you're listening, I hope you're able to
find the 30,000 emails that are missing," Trump
told reporters.
Former CIA Director and defence Secretary Leon
Panetta told the Democratic convention that
Trump had sided with Russia by asking for their
services in hacking Clinton's emails, which
should be enough to disqualify him from ever
becoming commander in chief.
"It's inconceivable to me that any presidential
candidate would be this irresponsible," he said.
Clinton's campaign quickly responded to Trump's
statement, calling it the "first time that a major
presidential candidate has actively encouraged a
foreign power to conduct espionage against a
political opponent.
"This has gone from being a matter of curiosity,
and a matter of politics, to being a national
security issue," Clinton's campaign said in a
statement.
Trump steals the show
Al Jazeera correspondent Kimberly Halkett said
the Democratic Party was able "to pivot" and
attack Trump on his request for Russia to hack
Clinton's emails.
"But at the same time, Donald Trump is also
benefitting from this," Halkett said at the
convention.
"Once again he's stolen the show. We are talking
about Donald Trump again. And when we are
talking about Donald Trump we are not talking
about the Democratic convention," she said.
"The Democrats just can't seem to win...they
want to be talking about issues. They want to
distance themselves from the Republican
convention of a week ago and show how they
are different. The problems is this email
controversy, that seems to cloud Clinton's
campaign, just won't go away."
In his speech to the Democratic convention,
businessman and former New York mayor
Michael Bloomberg said people needed to unite
to defeat Trump, who he called a "dangerous
demagogue."
"I'm a New Yorker and I know a con when I see
one," Bloomberg said of Trump.
"The richest thing about Donald Trump is his
hypocrisy."
The Clinton campaign has sought to portray
Trump, who has no experience in public office,
as temperamentally unfit for the White House.
They have contrasted Clinton's long experience
and foreign policy skills with Trump's maverick
position on international relations, which Clinton
campaign chair John Podesta has described as.
"unsteady, unfit and dangerous,"
Trump has proposed temporarily banning Muslims
from entering the country and building a wall on
the border with Mexico border to
