Conservatives are going after President Joe Biden for suggesting that he was raised in a Puerto Rican community in Delaware.
“We have a very, in relative terms, a large Puerto Rican population in Delaware relative to our population,” Mr Biden said in Ponce on the southern coast of the island on Monday, where he travelled to survey the damage done by Hurricane Fiona. “We have the eighth-largest Black population of the country and between all minorities, we have 20 per cent of our state [that] is minority. And so I was sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community at home, politically.”
