Joe Biden Sparks Confusion with Claim He ‘Used to Drive an 18-Wheeler’

President Joe Biden used a visit to a Mack Truck facility in Pennsylvania on Wednesday to roll up his sleeves and assert solidarity with the workers, telling them “I used to drive an 18-wheeler, man.” He offered no evidence to support the boast.

RNC Research shared the video of Biden and captioned it “Joe Biden, a career politician who has been in politics for 48 years, claims he “used to drive an 18 wheeler.”

RNC Director Zach Parkinson said there was “zero evidence that Biden used to drive an 18 wheeler.”

“The extent of Biden’s trucking experience is that he **rode in** a truck once, for one night in 1973 (he made sure to return home by plane though),” he tweeted.

Parkinson also shared an Associated Press article about Biden’s 1973 journey, which was headlined “Senator observes truckers’ woes.” That article said: “Biden takes 550-mile ride.”

Fox News later pressed the White House on Biden’s claim with a spokesperson observing the president “rode” in a truck back in 1973.

The spokesperson shared with Fox News a 1973 article from the Wilmington Evening Journal showing the president sitting in an 18-wheeler, not driving it.

The president’s spokesperson pointed to a United Federation of Teachers post that touched on Biden driving a school bus in the past as a summer job.

During his speech in Pennsylvania, Biden also joked about wanting to drive a truck.

“Well, I’m not going to say anything; I just came to drive a truck,” the president said. “And I’m not sure which one I want to drive. That one? There’s one back in the corner you can’t see. It’s the biggest damn pick-up truck you ever saw in your life.”

Has anyone found the true origin of the “Mom” babblying by Biden?
Was there really a person in the audience who told about “mom” to Biden and Biden thought she was there now?

Or Jill the EdD degree holder (out of the country)?

And did Biden call his late first wife “Mom” as some men used to. “Well, Mom, let’s get the kids tucked in and go to bed.”

Or was it the mother who died at age 92, several years ago?

Does anyone know? A Trump slip would have been on 12 hours a day on panels all week.

Well after all, he did gradiate top of his class, and had a 1000 or so undergraduate degrees, so why not throw in the lie that he was an a long haul trucker too? Most of The butt kissing msm will never call him on it- maybe that is what Joe meant when he unintelligibly said something to the effect of ‘my butt’s been wiped’?

“I think I probably have a much higher IQ than you do, I suspect,” said Biden, pointing at the man. “I went to law school on a full academic scholarship.”

“I was the only one in my class to have a full academic scholarship. ... The first year in law school I decided I didn’t want to be in law school and ended up in the bottom two-thirds of my class and then decided I wanted to stay and went back to law school and in fact ended up in the top half of my class,” he continued.

“I was the outstanding student in the political science department at the end of my year. I graduated with three degrees from undergraduate school and 165 credits, you only needed 125 credits. And I’d be delighted to sit down and compare my IQ to yours, if you’d like, Frank.”

In fact, Biden attended Syracuse law school on a half-scholarship and graduated near the bottom on his class. Despite claiming that he improved his academic performance over time, the records did not indicate that he did. And finally, he graduated with a dual major in history and political science — not “three degrees” as he stated.

Is he senile? Yeah, probably. But he’s also just a habitual liar.

As someone with a bit of dementia myself he’s making it hard for me to share my “life” stories to friends. Because, I really have done more things than the normal Mom. Now I’m afraid they will think I’m lying. ( I really did live in 8 different states and moved 39 times)

"As someone with a bit of dementia myself he’s making it hard for me to share my “life” stories to friends."

God bless you, young lady! I'm also coming to the time of life where that can be a factor. But I think you can rely on the fact that your friends know you and that you have established some credibility with them. They'll be able to recognize that things aren't working quite as well as they used to.

Biden's family and close 'friends' should be ashamed of themselves. (fat chance...) They KNOW far better what's really going on with this guy, and they are allowing him to make a certified ass of himself every time he opens his mouth in public.

The hardest part about living a life of lies is keeping them straight. It's gotta be nearly impossible for a habitual liar with dementia.

Xiden needs to do three events a day. Our lives would be completely filled with entertainment. Might as well get something out of him being resident.

Of course he drove one. He sang about it and filmed it when he drove from Georgia to Texarkana and back…

Pelosi sneered at Biden,”You imbecile, you know DEMOCRATS need the tattoo vote and you did nothing.”

So Joe and Jill called in the well known local tattoo artist ......Don.

Jill told Don to tattoo Joe to reflect the dignity of his office, and the glory of Democrats.

“Yes, ma’am,” said Don (a Republican and closet Trumper).

Don then tattooed Joes 10 fingers: “I am an idiot.”

Joe and Jill were thrilled........(reading it upside down).

Joe said, “All I have to do is hold up my hand say......get me a new DEPEND, I just went to the toidi.”
