Old Joe Biden may be a poor debater, but at least he tells the truth, unlike Bad Orange Man. As improbable as it is, that’s the line the left has decided upon to explain away Biden’s appalling performance in last Thursday’s debate. But this excuse appears even more appalling in light of the fact that Biden lied his way through that debate.
Old Joe himself said it at a Friday rally: “Well, folks, I don’t walk as easily as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debah — debate as well as I used to. But I know what I do know. I know how to tell the truth.” His boss Barack Obama quickly followed suit: “Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November.”
Yet Truthful Joe’s “bad debate night” was made worse by the fact that the garrulous old kleptocrat lied pretty much every time he opened his mouth. Here are five of his most outrageous whoppers:
- Biden repeated the old charge that Trump refused to visit the graves of fallen U.S. soldiers in France and called them “suckers and losers.” Trump once again denied having done so, whereupon Biden said: “You had a four-star general stand at your side, who was on your staff, who said you said it, period.” Old Joe was referring to Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, who said in Oct. 2023, three years after the claim was first made, that Trump “rants that our most precious heroes who gave their lives in America’s defense are ‘losers’ and wouldn’t visit their graves in France.”
Trump accused Kelly of lying, so it’s a case of whom one chooses to believe — except that John Bolton, who has harshly criticized Trump, said in Sept. 2020: “I didn’t hear either of those comments or anything even resembling them. I was there at the point in time that morning when it was decided that he would not go Aisne-Marne cemetery. He decided not to do it because of John Kelly’s recommendation. It was entirely a weather-related decision, and I thought the proper thing to do.”
Why would Bolton, who hates Trump, lie to cover for him? Bolton also inadvertently exposed Kelly as lying. According to Bolton, who would have had no reason to make up such a thing, Kelly recommended that Trump not visit the cemetery. Then three years later, Kelly claimed that Trump “wouldn’t” visit the cemetery. That strongly suggests that it’s Kelly — and hence Biden — who is lying, not Trump.
- Biden claimed that Trump said that Hitler did some good things. Once again, the source for this is John Kelly, who has already been shown to be an unreliable witness. Trump’s spokesperson Liz Harrington said: “This is totally false. President Trump never said this. It is made-up fake news, probably by a general who was incompetent and was fired.” Kelly claims that Trump praised Hitler during his Nov. 9-11, 2018 trip to Paris. Yet Kelly remained Trump’s chief of staff. Only nearly a month later, on Dec. 8, 2018, did Trump announce that he was replacing Kelly, who remained in the position until Jan. 2, 2019. Would you have kept working for a man who praised Hitler? I wouldn’t have.
- Old Joe also dragged out his oft-repeated claim that National Socialists demonstrating in Charlottesville were “fine people.” This lie is particularly galling, for at the press conference where Trump supposedly made this statement, he said: “I’ve condemned neo-Nazis. I’ve condemned many different groups, but not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me. Not all of those people were white supremacists by any stretch.
- Biden claimed that Trump “wants to get rid of Social Security.” Yet this was after Trump had said of the alleged president: “This man is going to single-handedly destroy Social Security. These millions and millions of people coming in, they’re trying to put them on Social Security. He will wipe out Social Security.” Warning that Biden regime policies are endangering Social Security would be strange coming from a man who wanted to get rid of it.
- Biden said: “The pandemic are so badly handled, many people were dying. All he said was, it’s not that serious. Just inject a little bleach in your arm. It’d be all right.” As cartoonist-turned-pundit Scott Adams has explained in detail, Trump was referring to “the concept of killing Covid on external surfaces using sunlight and UV light. Light as a ‘disinfectant’ was collectively mentioned 21 times by the experts – Dr. Bryan and Dr. Birx – and by Trump.” Trump’s exact words bear this out.
Besides lying outright, Biden also demonstrates anew by repeating these claims that much of the opposition to Trump is based not on his policies, but on rude or unkind things he has supposedly said. Aside from the claim about Social Security, these charges would have no effect on public policy even if they were true. Old Joe and his handlers know that if the campaign comes down to Trump’s record as president versus Biden’s, Trump will win in a walk if the election isn’t rigged. And so all this dredging-up of ancient and discredited quotes will continue — anything to keep people from looking at Biden’s record.

**Biden, has once again…”Demonstrated” incompetence, dishonesty, & mental retardation, through his Human baby-killing political party! { Disgusting, & vile]
Lying, cheating, & mis-information, “The fare of the DAY”, on his menu, of deceit, & treachery!
Why…do Demo’rats do this to this nation?…[ for power, & money]…”Doom on them!”
Jeff Bargholz says
It must’ve been hard to choose Lyin’ Biden’s top ten lies, considering everything he said was a lie.
Steven Wright says
The “debate” was painful to watch on so many levels.
The doubling down on every lie by Brandon was especially excruciating.
ps: did you catch Trump calling him “Brandon”? 21:35 He was actually referring to Brandon Judd, the President of the National Border Patrol, but that line certainly got my attention!
The line was: “Brandon, just speak to him”. Perfect.
Laurence Oeltze says
Yours is the first mention I’ve seen of the Brandon remark. My wife and I heard it, looked at each other and then almost fell off the couch laughing.
Jeff Bargholz says
Bizarro #1 Barack sez: “Bad debate nights happen. Trust me, I know. But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November.”
All true if you replace Biden with Trump in that ridiculous, reverse reality comment. Obama would know, he’s an inveterate liar himself, although not even he’s in a crass class with Biden.
Kasandra says
Biden tells the truth? That’s a good one. In his best days he was a pathological liar. He hasn’t improved any.
Waclaw Borken-Hagen says
Joe Biden’s handlers have lied to us for over 4 years about the inability to perform his newly donated job.

“Warning that Biden regime policies are endangering Social Security would be strange coming from a man who wanted to get rid of it.” ???

Trump has always protected social security and always will.

I believe he was saying it was inconsistent with Biden’s claim that Trump wanted to get rid of SS.
Chief Mac says
TaliBridem has voted at least six times to end Social Security. He is projecting his actions on Trump
The 16 members of the armed forces that have been killed under his occupation of the White House proves that he lied about none hav died.

Five for Fighting.
mgoldberg says
I noticed an article with Nancy Pelosi chiming in yesterday about the debate. She was firm stating that Trump was exhibiting signs of dementia. Now… consider for the moment the scope of such perfidy, which is what that debate and about 50 or so instances of Joe Biden actions these last 3 yrs.demonstrated. And in the end, people like Pelosi could care less, because it’s always easier to smear Pres Trump or anyone in their sacred belief in the one party rule. Even the rule by a man who can no longer function as a president.
Semaphore says
What did “Rules For Radicals” say? Blame your opposition for what you yourself are guilty of? Or something like that.
dan2466 says
What do you mean “Can no longer function as President”? (as if he ever COULD function as President – I think NOT!)
BLSinSC says
The SAD part about all of biden’s lies is that they have been PROVEN TO BE LIES and yet Joe and the leftmedia continue to push them! One LIE that he will NOT be able to spin is about the ECONOMY and PEOPLE’S LIVES! People KNOW that Joe’s policies have denied them a chance to own a home or even RENT one! They KNOW that PRICES are WAY UP on basic food items! They KNOW that their TAX DOLLARS have been used in ways detrimental to the US! The R’s have an opportunity to stop the madness. The Supreme Court recently helped pave the way to SANITY – it’s up to the R’s to show the rest of the way!
Steve Chavez says
He said one word that really hit me, “BLOODBATH!” Didn’t he hear the full context? HEY, aren’t they now claiming that FJB clips are EDITED AND DOCTORED? Well… BLOODBATH was really edited and doctored by 99% of the media including Albuquerque’s local TV.
“Trump said that, ‘If I lose, there’s going to be a BLOODBATH!” I was surprised at this BLATANT LIE but the Zombies, Congress, and JOE BIDEN, only get their news from HATERS OF TRUMP and never even bothered to see the entire clip WHICH MEANS THE MEDIA IS DOING A DISSERVICE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, AND THE WORLD, BY DOING THIS WHICH THEN INCITES HATRED AND THEN VIOLENT RETALIATION! If you try to correct them, they resort to… “YOU WATCH TOO MUCH FOX NEWS!”
Just bring that one up with the MSM clips of Bloodbath when they say FJB’s clips are edited when the dunce is standing there staring blindly since the lie creates fear of a CIVIL WAR!
Kasandra says
I believe Trump was talking about a bloodbath in the automobile industry if Biden wins because of his mono mania over electric cars on which the Big 3 lose thousands dollars on each one sold. Also, most people don’t want one and the charging infrastructure for so many electric cars does not currently exist.
Domenic Pepe says
Biden is as close as physically possible to being a corpse …
without actually being dead.
Biden proved that last night at the debate.
Make no mistake about it.
When Abraham Lincoln left Ford’s Theater
he was more alive than Biden was last night
Is it sin to pray to God to euthanize Biden like an injured horse is euthanized ?
This is an important theological question for the Poe.
No offense to horses is intended.
Luz Maria Rodriguez says
Yes, it appears JB is actually close to a natural death from his disease than formerly believed.
It is stunning the Dems, the Biden Crime Family, the media, wealthy and powerful Dem doners who support the Dem Party would want to continue with that vegetable in the Oval Office. He is so obviously cognitively deeply challenged.
Several EU leaders have now made remarks about the depth of his lack of cognition. Yet, Dem leaders and doners want to leave him in Office. We are on the precipice of three major conflicts: 1) Russia could expand its fight in Ukraine geometrically; 2) Iran could attack Israel. Purportedly they might have up to nine a-bombs (thx to Obama & Biden); 3) China might attack Taiwan and NK might go after SK or Japan.
America, even in its twilight years, should not allow such a cognitively challenged invalid anywhere near the Nuke Codes. That this is allowed is yet another indication of how far America has fallen.
Dick Gripeman says
Bad parenting from the media.
Rob A says
Here’s an ominous truth that lies at the heart of the matter and cannot be circumvent: The real danger to America is not Joe Biden but a citizenry that is willing to entrust a person like him with the presidency.
At the end of the day when all is said and done, it’s we the people who are ultimately responsible for the government “we” voted for. The fact that Joe Biden is president is just the latest symptom of a much deeper problem with the American electorate.
MuggsSpongedice says
dumbed down voters and dumb ass treasonous lying cheating crooked grifter money launderer sell out of the USA is a major problem
Herbert Hämmer says
Rob, you hit the nail on the head. Our leaders are only as good as the electorate that voted them in. As Hussein O’Bummer calls them “useful idiots”, it is unsurprising to see what’s happening. After all, we have no less than 51% of useful idiots being allowed to vote in this country!
Walter Sieruk says
Joe Biden is such a chronic liar that it may ,truly, be said that “If Biden tells someone that ‘It’s raining outside ‘ That person would be wise to first look out of the window before believing lying creepy old Joe.”
Rob A says
Biden has been in Washington DC for 50+years. Who’s fault is it that he’s still there? He didn’t elect himself. An incontestable fact that hardly anyone ever pays attention to or bothers to mention. I wonder why…….
Spurwing Plover says
Five more Pinocchio’s for Biden’s Presidential Lie-Brary he’ll need a extra large room for them
RS says
We have an administration that is acting like a monarchy.. How do you feel about the Democrats saying that the US military could now send in Seal Team Six to take out President Trump?????? Their scheems in court haven’t yielded them the removal of President Trump..
Doc Samson says
Thank you! So ridiculous/weird for any conservative (not going to say Repub because… reasons) to be writing about how Biden needs to be replaced…
Alonzo says
One of the few times I agree with Obama is the comment below (cited in the article). The only problem is that he has the candidates reversed.
“But this election is still a choice between someone who has fought for ordinary folks his entire life and someone who only cares about himself. Between someone who tells the truth; who knows right from wrong and will give it to the American people straight — and someone who lies through his teeth for his own benefit. Last night didn’t change that, and it’s why so much is at stake in November.”
