Former Vice President Joe Biden launched his third presidential campaign Thursday by replaying footage of the Charlottesville tragedy which he used to portray President Trump as a defender of white supremacists. Speaking to The Daily Beast, the mother of Heather Heyer, the peaceful liberal protester murdered by one of the racist far-right demonstrators, revealed that Biden didn’t let her know in advance that he was going to “capitalize” on the events that led to her daughter’s murder.
“But I wasn’t surprised,” said Susan Bro, Heyer’s mother. “Most people do that sort of thing. They capitalize on whatever situation is handy. He didn’t reach out to me, and didn’t mention her by name specifically, and he probably knew we don’t endorse candidates.”
