Sometimes, it's okay to just laugh. During his profoundly unfunny abortion rights rally in Florida on Tuesday — at which Joe Biden failed to accurately describe his own radical and unpopular position on the issue — the president tried to draw a contrast between himself and his opponent. What he meant to say, as is so often the case these days, was rather different than what came out of his mouth. He intended to make the case that Donald Trump is untrustworthy.
What he actually said was, well, a Trump campaign ad:
BIDEN ON TRUMP: "How many times does he have to prove we can't be trusted?"

"I'm Donald Trump, and I approve this message." The crowd couldn't even help but laugh awkwardly. This comes on the heels of another Biden classic, in which he ludicrously falsely made up the claim that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in the South Pacific during World War II. The White House had to clean this up (poorly, of course), and the fable caused something of a minor international incident. Again, sometimes it's okay to just laugh -- even if it's at the President of the United States demonstrating more evidence of his habitual fabrication, deteriorating senility, or both:

The man shamelessly and pathologically makes up, embellishes, and plagiarizes details of his and his family's life, and has done so for his entire adult life -- including about the circumstances of multiple close family members' deaths, which is actually quite creepy. Other inventions are less macabre:
Reminder, there is 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). https://t.co/miT2EIBSXN pic.twitter.com/AjGhQASQjP
Coming full circle, back to Biden's trip to Florida, I'll leave you with this:
