Biden Has a Long History of Telling Arrest Stories, But Most of Them Never Happened

Joe Biden admittedly has trouble remembering things these days.

But while the 77-year-old presumptive Democratic presidential nominee sometimes forgets where he is and even who he’s trying to get elected while at his own presidential campaign events, his history of spinning yarns about being arrested seems to be attributable to his penchant for lying rather than his cognitive decline.

Biden’s peculiar fixation on inventing run-ins with law enforcement has been one of his favorite prevarications.
