Joe Biden has moments of lucidity and moments of confusion. He has to be in bed by 7 pm and doesn’t get to the office before 9 am. He is clearly cognitively impaired. There has been a lot of focus on that and it is in order but we’re sort of forgotten something along the way.
Biden is a galactic liar and he is a nasty person.
Oh, I know he put on the nice old grandpa schtick during the campaign but under that phony veneer he’s a prick and a lying prick at that. His smears of late bring all that to mind.
Biden has a long history of lying going back decades and this clip captures the earlier, real Biden.
That mendacity ruined his first Presidential aspirations. He hasn’t changed and he’s just as nasty as ever.
Biden gave license to the worst instincts on the left with his repeated sneering references to all Republicans and especially Donald Trump. At one point, he actually accused Trump of letting immigrant children “starve to death on the other side” of the Mexican border.
He said it in a room full of 30 supposed journalists and not a single one challenged him or even asked whether he meant it literally. In fact, not a single one challenged him on any of his falsehoods.

Biden said in the September 12, 2019 debate: “We didn’t lock people up in cages. We didn’t separate families. We didn’t do all of those things, number one. They did”
- Not true, all those pictures you saw of the cages were taken in 2014 during his time in office.
Joe Biden has repeatedly said he was arrested with Nelson Mandela on the streets of Soweto during a trip to South Africa in the 1970s, when South Africa was under apartheid.
- There is absolutely no truth to this, as Biden was later forced to confess
Biden said on May 22, 2020 in an interview on The Breakfast Club radio show: “The NAACP has endorsed me every time I’ve run.”
- Not true. The NAACP has never endorsed any candidate
On September 3, 2019 in an NPR interview, referring to the Iraq War, “immediately, the moment it started, I came out against the war at that moment.”
- Not true. Biden fully supported the Iraq war and voted for the resolution to go to war
On August 7, 2019 – Joe Biden claimed that Donald Trump “asserted that immigrants would quote, ‘carve you up with a knife’.”
- He never said that about immigrants. He said that MS-13 Gang members were doing that
More recently, the former vice president has told audiences that after his stint in the White House, “I became a teacher. I became a professor.” While it is true that he took a lofty salary to make a handful of speeches for the University of Pennsylvania, Biden has never taught students.
Then there was the inspiring tale of visiting Afghanistan to honor a heroic naval officer. Biden described the officer’s actions in detail, adding, “This is God’s truth, my word as a Biden.” But according to a review in the Washington Post, no such incident occurred. Biden was lucky not to be hit by lightning.
There were also Biden’s claims of having been arrested in the 1970s because he tried to visit Nelson Mandela in prison. Nope, didn’t happen. He has also cast himself as a civil rights activist and co-sponsor of the Endangered Species Act; those things aren’t true either.
Biden lied about the new Georgia Voting Law so egregiously that even the WaPo fact checker could not let it slide:
Fact-checker Glenn Kessler honed in on two-sets of remarks made by Biden last week:
- Biden on March 25: “What I’m worried about is how un-American this whole initiative is. It’s sick. It’s sick … deciding that you’re going to end voting at five o’clock when working people are just getting off work.”
- Biden on March 26: “Among the outrageous parts of this new state law, it ends voting hours early so working people can’t cast their vote after their shift is over.”
“On Election Day in Georgia, polling places are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and if you are in line by 7 p.m., you are allowed to cast your ballot. Nothing in the new law changes those rules,” The Post reported. “However, the law did make some changes to early voting. But experts say the net effect was to expand the opportunities to vote for most Georgians, not limit them.”
The Federalist made a list of all the lies Biden’s uttered since becoming President.
– Biden Insists He Is Tough on China
– Biden Falsely States Top Corporations Don’t ‘Pay a Cent in Taxes’
– Biden Says Trump’s Tax Cuts Only Helped the Rich
– Biden Says Majority of Migrant Families that Cross Border Are Sent Back
– Biden Says Migrants Not Flooding the Border Because of Him
That’s a sampling. Check them all out at the link.
There has been such a concentration on Biden’s dementia – me included- that we’ve sort of lost sight of the fact that he is a chronic liar. Frankly, I find the combination of dementia and deceit to be truly frightening for someone with the nuclear codes. The next time he slurs his words or asks “what press conference?” remember that.
UPDATE
Also remember that Biden’s dog learned to bite people from someone.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
