Biden Regrets Talking About Fighting Trump

by Associated Press

   WASHINGTON --

   Former vice president Joe Biden regrets saying he'd "beat the hell" out
   of President Donald Trump if they were in high school for how he treats
   women.

   In a "Pod Save America" interview released Wednesday, the Democrat said
   "I shouldn't have said what I said."

   At a University of Miami rally against sexual assault last week, Biden
   cited lewd comments that Republican candidate Trump made in a 2005
   "Access Hollywood" tape about grabbing women without their permission.

   The 75-year-old made similar comments in the closing days of the 2016
   campaign.

   Trump tweeted: "Crazy Joe Biden is trying to act like a tough guy."

   Biden said he should not have brought it up again. He said "I don't
   want to get down in the mosh pit with this guy."
