It's pretty weird to deliberately make up shit knowing that people will know it's false.
Biden claims his uncle Frank won Purple Heart but story doesn’t add up

Guano, Reagan is dead.
Trump set the bar.
No no. Trump put the bar on the ground. Then he dug a hole with taxpayer money to the core of the earth and dropped the bar down it. I'm no fan of Biden, but there will never be a worse president than Trump.
I dont care who you are....THATS FUNNY!
When it comes to humor Im always willing to cross party lines and give the jackass his due!
Not trying to be political when I say this, TRUST ME,..Im a bit SICK to death of politics bullshit,......just saying that Joe has always done that,....even before he went crazy.
President Biden claimed Friday that his uncle Frank Biden won the Purple Heart for his actions during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II — but there’s no evidence of the award and key details of the story are chronologically impossible.
The 80-year-old commander-in-chief has a habit of sharing false or embellished personal anecdotes to build a connection with his audiences and told his latest apparent tall tale during largely unscripted remarks to veterans in Delaware.
“My dad, when I got elected vice president [in 2008], he said, ‘Joey, Uncle Frank fought in the Battle of the Bulge.’ He was not feeling very well now — not because of the Battle of the Bulge, but he said, ‘and he won the Purple Heart and he never received it. He never got it. Do you think you could help him get it? We will surprise him,'” the president recalled.
“So I got him the Purple Heart. He had won it in the Battle of the Bulge. And I remember he came over the house and I came out and [my father] said, ‘Present it to him, okay?’ We had the family there,” Biden went on “I said, ‘Uncle Frank, you’ve won this and I wanted to —’ and he said, ‘I don’t want the damn thing.’ No, I’m serious, he said, ‘I don’t want it.’ I said, ‘What’s the matter, Uncle Frank? You earned it.’ He said, ‘Yeah, but the others died. The others died. I lived. I don’t want it.'”
Biden told the story apparently to make a point about the humility of veterans, but the known facts indicate it’s not true.
Biden’s father, Joseph R. Biden Sr., died in September 2002 — more than six years before his son was elected vice president. Frank Biden, Joe Sr.’s brother, died in 1999......
The tale involving Biden’s uncle is similar to another emotionally impactful but false story told by then-presidential candidate Joe Biden in 2019 — this one involving a Navy captain supposedly refusing to accept a Silver Star for his heroism in Afghanistan. A Washington Post fact check from the time said Biden “jumbled elements of at least three actual events into one story of bravery, compassion, and regret that never happened.”......
Biden made other dubious remarks Friday, including telling veterans that “twice as president” he had been “in and out of Afghanistan and Iraq and those areas” — despite never visiting Afghanistan and Iraq as president and getting no closer than the Palestinian city of Bethlehem, almost 300 miles from the Iraqi border.....
Biden also falsely claimed in 1987 that he “graduated with three degrees from college,” was named “the outstanding student in the political science department,” “went to law school on a full academic scholarship — the only one in my class to have a full academic scholarship” and ”ended up in the top half” of his class. None of those claims were true. .......

Joe Biden lying....again. He just cannot tell the truth.
BUT TRUMP!! I thought you hate Trump because he lies.
Old Joe has a long track record of just pulling shit out of his ass. Its not JUST senility,...
I dont care who you are....THATS FUNNY!
We have that in common.
Politicians always lie. That's a given.
But the real question here is did President Biden deliberately lie or did he misremember a story?
Either way, it still doesn't look good. Perhaps it's time for him to retire. He has done enough.
It's amazing how MAGAs all of the sudden have a problem with a president lying.
Joe might have lied about a purple heart.
twump lied about a "stolen election" and incited an attack on his own country.
Makes you wish Major Bone Spurs just lied about a medal.

I agree. Whom should the Democrats nominate next?
No one who ever supported Trump can ever make a judgment about trustworthiness. Their entire existence depends on deception.
People seem not to like Harris. I'm a Buttigieg fan.
Oh yes. He would make a great president. I agree.

My aunt died when she was 104. When she was still living alone ate around 90 years old she would tell fantastic stories about the neighbor killing rabbits. Otherwise she seemed OK. She later progressed to be very bad. So Biden is showing signs of dementia just like Reagan and that somehow is OK with you??? Plus I wasn't very political during Reagan because I was taking additional college classes to get in to med school so working and college and early fatherhood kept me pretty busy in the late 80s
