Trump's lot shared a video of Biden on social media where he said "Why am I doing this? Why? What is my real aim?"

Their aim was obvous.

For some reason, they didn't share the full clip. Biden was actually quoting Pope Francis. Here's what Biden said:

"In a recent encyclical, Pope Francis warns us against this phony populism that appeals to ‘The basest and most selfish instincts.’ He goes on to say, ‘Politics is something more noble than posturing, marketing, and media spin. These sow nothing but division, conflict, and a bleak cynicism.’

"He said, ‘For those who seek to lead, we do well to ask ourselves, why am I doing this? Why? What is my real aim?"
