Without mentioning Donald Trump by name, former Vice President Joe Biden sharply criticized the Republican president for his rhetoric he says is adversely impacting the nation. “Values are being shredded by an administration that puts their own interests before the ideas that we stand for,” Biden, a Democrat, said Monday during a rally at Youngstown State University for Rich Cordray, the Democratic nominee for governor. He spoke of the recent violence that has struck the nation. “This it the time for American leaders of all political stripes, all of them, to think about consoling the victims and uniting this country,” Biden said. He added: “You get it. Words matter, and words from our leaders matter.”
