Wait! What? Didn’t he empathize with his Beau story?

Yes, he did.

“Only Jiennah, who is expecting the couple’s child next month, stayed. But she left disappointed, Roice [McCollum’s sister] said. The president brought up his son, Beau, according to her account, describing his son’s military service and subsequent death from cancer. It struck the family as scripted and shallow, a conversation that lasted only a couple of minutes in ‘total disregard to the loss of our Marine,’ Roice said.

Mark Schmitz - the father of Lance Corporal Jared Schmitz - and Darin Hoover - the father of Staff Sgt Darin Taylor Hoover Jr. - spoke to Fox News host Sean Hannity on Monday night.

Both claimed the commander in chief did not just check his watch once, but after every casket was removed from the plane.

Hoover also told how he refused to meet with the president at the event.

Schmitz said his own meeting ‘didn’t go well’, and Biden spent more time talking about his own son Beau than Jared Schmitz.

Schmitz said Biden spoke of losing his son Beau Biden, an Iraq veteran, to cancer six years ago. But Schmitz said that he wanted to talk about Jared instead and that he and his wife took out a photo of their son to show the president.

"I said: ‘Don’t you ever forget that name. Don’t you ever forget that face. Don’t you ever forget the names of the other 12,’" Schmitz told The Post. "‘And take some time to learn their stories.’"

But according to Schmitz, the president didn’t like that and bristled, replying: ‘I do know their stories.’

Biden can’t read a room. But It’s the only thing Joe has. In his 9/11 tribute you know he going to mention The loss of Beau.
