Biden: “Didn't Come to Explain a Damn Thing”

Vice President Joe Biden, fresh off a 4-day tour of China, told U.S. troops stationed in Japan Wednesday the trip wasn’t to “explain our economic situation” as some in the media had suggested. “I didn’t come to explain a damn thing,” Biden said, Bloomberg News reported. He said leaders in China, which holds large amounts of U.S. debt, had confidence in the U.S. economy. Days earlier, Biden drew GOP fire for saying while in China that he was “not second guessing” the country’s one-child policy. MSNBC reported China’s government had already been chipping away at the policy "for quite some time."
