While on that bridge in New Hampshire, Biden relayed how important bridges are to emergency services, recalling the time his home there burned down with his wife Jill inside. OK, maybe the house didn’t burn down.
Appears Biden misspoke.
Making the point that bridges are important to emergency services, Biden says in NH he “had a house burn down with my wife in it.” He adds, “she got out safely.”
According to AP in 2004, fire in question was “small” and “was contained to the kitchen.”

Within moments, Biden seemed to clarify by saying “a significant portion of it burned.”

Why does he keep doing this?
“Misspoke”?

It’s not like him to embellish his life story.

He can’t help himself. Been doing this his entire career.

Yes, I too frequently say my house burned down with my wife inside when I meant neither of those things happened. Perfectly normal slip of the tongue. Like saying I drove a truck, or my family was injured by drunk driver, or I marched with civil rights leaders. Just stutters.

Or how he was arrested trying to see Nelson Mandela.
Biden didn’t “misspeak”. He made shit up, just like he’s done for 40 years. And you all let him get away with it.https://t.co/DyXmzB9B2O

@JoeBiden is a fabulist. Not just about “Corn Pop.” He claimed in 1987 that he graduated in top 1/2 of law school class but actually finished 76 out of 85. His record since law school proves it. https://t.co/iMnDF8n8tM

Amtrak Conductor story.
— Blad (@Honeybladger) November 16, 2021
The fact he embellishes stories so regularly is troubling. Usually he doesn’t correct it though. That’s rare.
When called on these embellishments he usually becomes aggressive and spews gobbligook.

I guess when you grow up in an age where lies are hard to verify, it’s difficult to break the practice once anyone with a phone can fact check you.

There isn’t a single story or fact he won’t try to lie about. Not a single one
— Jim E Johnz (@JimEJohnz1) November 16, 2021
“Mispoke” is either a euphemism for lied again but we’re covering for him, or he’s a senile ol’ man that doesn’t know what he’s saying but we’re going to cover for him again.
— ThrillIsGone (@ThrillIsGone3) November 16, 2021
Misspoke? Sure, he did. The guys been a chronic liar his entire life. Stop covering for the dishonest and senile clown.
— Jim Gibney (@Gibney_Jim) November 16, 2021
He’ll tell this story again in six months and not change a detail.
