2020 Democrat hopeful Joe Biden gave a very awkward response to a black student who asked the old gaffe machine for some advice.

Biden traveled to South Carolina on Saturday and spoke at a town hall in Florence.

Things got a little awkward when Biden responded to a question from a young black woman.

A black student asked Joe Biden, “If I were your daughter, what advice would you give me the next time I am stopped by the police?”

“If you were my daughter, you’d be a Caucasian girl, and you wouldn’t be pulled over,” Biden said.

“That’s what’s wrong. There is institutional racism that still exists,” Biden added.

Imagine if President Trump said something like this.
