A bronzed Joe Biden made a bizarre claim about inventing a computer chip during his make-or-break interview Friday.

Biden, 81, would repeatedly respond to questions in a raspy, weary voice, often losing track mid-sentence and at times ignoring questions in an attempt to make occasionally outlandish claims about his record.

The president at one point told George Stephanopoulos that 'we used to have 40 percent of computer chips. We invented the chip, the little chip, the computer chip. It's in everything from cell phone to weapons.'

The president repeatedly rejected taking an independent medical evaluation that would show voters he is up for serving another term in office.

'Look, I have a cognitive test every single day,' Biden said, referring to the tasks he faces daily in a rigorous job. 'Every day, I´ve had tests. Everything I do.'

Biden was gently but repeatedly probed by Stephanopoulos about whether he was being realistic in his belief that he could beat Trump, giving widening polls between the two and growing concern from elected Democrats.

Agreed!
If he had actually said this, it would have never been broadcast.
This is just a very poor attempt to kiss up to Silicon Valley

'we used to have 40 percent of computer chips. We invented the chip, the little chip, the computer chip.

Well, to be fair, it sounds like he was talking about America--not himself, personally.

There are plenty of things to criticize him about. It doesn't sound like this is one of them.

[Smellin Salt]

[Reno89519]

What chip did he invent? I just listened to the interview and couldn’t make sense of what he said.

[Responsibility2nd]

I agree. The headline is a Fake Headline.
