Joe Biden is facing criticism for telling a story during a fundraiser using his past working relationship with lawmakers who were segregationists as a way to prove that he can work across the aisle. Anita Dunn, Biden campaign surrogate and former White House communications director during the Obama administration, tells NBC's Kasie Hunt that "the point of the story is that you have to be able to work with people, even if they hold positions repugnant to you, in order to make some progress."June 19, 2019
