Biden wants the same to happen for his more unfortunate sayings, of which he produces plenty as well. I get that this particular comment from this mayor was not like one of those Biden blunders and uncomparably abysmal, I don't want to diminish that. But at least he found the decency to regret the error of his ways, and this imho should be encouraged. For the good of society.
It should be pointed out that this apology was the second one he made after first refusing to apologize. His first apology was the "sorry if you were offended" type of non-apology apology.
