The president raised eyebrows when he recalled having lunch with his bigoted former colleagues.
Biden visited the United Performance Metals facility in Hamilton and was accompanied by both Ohio senators, Democrat Sherrod Brown and outgoing Republican Rob Portman.
The president told Portman he was"sorry" that the lawmaker was leaving the Senate because he's"one of the good guys" because of the way he treats his peers. "Joe Biden be like ‘ultra MAGA is so extreme and I just long for the days of when I could eat lunch with segregationists,'" Abigail Marone, press secretary for Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., swiped the president.
The president's latest comments follow ones he made during a Cinco de Mayo celebration at the White House on Thursday where he kicked off his remarks by telling a story recalling the"prejudice" toward Irish people.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP
