“Elderly man with a poor memory…”
While speaking at an event in Detroit, Michigan over the weekend, President Biden made the bizarre claim that he was Vice President during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“When I was vice president, things were kind of bad during the pandemic and what happened was, Barack said to me, ‘Go to Detroit! Help fix it,’” Biden said.
“Well, the poor mayor, he’s spent more time with me than he ever thought he’s gonna have to!” the president added.

From The New York Post:
It is unclear what event Biden was actually referring to in his remarks, though the then-VP claimed in 2011 the Obama administration had saved America’s auto industry from “the brink of extinction” following the 2008 financial crisis.
Biden made another strange claim that people are trying to “literally” erase Black history.
Watch below:
BIDEN: "I never imagined in the 2024 there'd be folks waiting to ban books in America! What in God's name is that about? Not only that, they're trying to erase black history! Literally!"
