It takes two indeed --- I agree. Just reading Biden's responses makes him look as completely unpolite and unpresidential himself. However, a more complete analysis asks for the whole exchange to be presented, in order to see Trump's reactions and/or statements that motivated such replies. Not that this will make Biden's statements more polite, but they will offer more context. I know I said before that fighting back is not necessarily the best answer, but in certain occassions, maybe that is all you have left given the insistance of the oponent in attacking you.
