Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden lashed out at a man on Thursday during an Iowa town hall, challenging him to an IQ test and calling him a liar. But many observers think the former vice president may have also mocked the man’s weight.
At one point during the heated confrontation that occurred when a voter asked about Hunter Biden's payments from a Ukrainian gas company, Joe Biden appeared to begin calling the man “fat” before catching himself.
“Look, fat, look, here’s the deal,” Biden appears to have said near the end of the exchange, prompting the voter to tell Biden he lacks a backbone.
His campaign claims he said he didn't say “fat,” just “facts.” And, later in the day, when asked if he used the word “fat,” Biden responded, “No, I didn’t.”

It used to be you could call someone fat and there wasn’t some sissy fit over being called fat. I’m okay with Joe on this one. This doesn’t rate in the Top 25 of stupid things he has done or said.

Vid of a guy later suggesting the questioner leave.
Make you proud.
he was in the middle of calling him Fat boy, Fat ass, or something like that. Because the very next thing he did was related to him being fat. He challenged the guy to a push up or running contest and talked about how fit he was.
I think I also heard him make a comment about being “sedentary” regarding the man.
This would have turned out so differently if only the guy was a 12-year-old girl.
So, was the guy fat? If so, well, if the shoe fits.......
Of course, he said, “Look, Fat.” There’s nothing wrong with my hearing, and it’s clear as a bell on the videos.
He’s always been a hothead with hostile questioners at these small town hall-type events (there’s a video from the ‘88 campaign where he goes off on some guy). But I think it’s consistent with his dementia onset that he’s so uninhibited now about personal insults.
Old Joe was about to call him a fatass.
Instead, Joe just called him "fat".
Now watch the MSM claim that Joe's insult has been debunked.
Gotta love the media.
If a democrat does something terrible or says something crude, it's already been "debunked".
Oh, and only "right-wing media" tries to make something out of it.
No, you DIDN'T see that on TV, that's been "debunked", only a Trump supporter would think of such nonsense about our boy.
We need to send in ringers to every one of his appearances to challenge him and make him go nuts on camera!
You Iowa FReepers got point on this one.
Like most D’rats, inside Joe resides a mean, nasty creature.
Thin skinned Biden. Trump will kick his ass rhetorically all over the debate stage.
Joe is losing it...mad scramble behind the scenes to find some demonrat that has less baggage than the Titanic....
Push up challenge was major lame
Push up challenge was major lame
That doesn't even make sense.
So they are really going to die on *that* hill.
Call a person "facts".
Yes, I guess "Facts McGee" is somebody's nickname.
Gotta love how he insults the guy later saying he's "too old to vote".
Gee, Joe, that's a great way to address your audience of 150 cotton tops.
You're too old to be voting for me, so don't bother.
Seriously great vid above!
That questioner stands up for himself.
He’s an alright guy.
(Also has pretty girl).
Joe must have been bullied and picked on as a child. He is always telling his opponents he wants to beat them up or take them behind the woodshed or compete with them in other types of physical confrontations. What is he like 15? He has some serious issues.
It seemed to me that he was going to refer to the man as “fat ass”, but then stopped himself somehow.
Nothing else really makes sense.
