Biden Appears Caught In Lie About Being Arrested In South Africa On Way to Visit Mandela
Joe Biden seems to remember things that other people don’t, often times because those things never happened. In other words, Joe, like many Democrats, lives in his own world where he has never done anything wrong.
On Friday, the former vice president was apparently caught in a big lie about being arrested in the 1970s in South Africa on his way to go see Nelson Mandela. Just Joe being Joe!
Does the 2020 presidential hopeful think people aren’t going to fact-check the stuff he says? It would sure seem that way.

From New York Times:
Andrew Young, a former congressman and mayor of Atlanta who was the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations from 1977 to 1979, said that he had traveled with Mr. Biden over the years, including to South Africa. But Mr. Young said that he had never been arrested in South Africa and expressed skepticism that members of Congress would have faced arrest there.

REACTIONS:
CNN’s John King called out Biden for blatantly lying about Super PACs. Joe has said he doesn’t like them, does’t want one.
But now that his low-energy campaign is running short on cash, it appears his attitude might be changing.
When even CNN is calling the Democrat “frontrunner” a liar, you just know there’s a problem. Also, it shows that CNN employees have probably been told to put Joe down while building up younger, hipper, cooler, more woke candidates.
Just a guess.
WATCH:
It takes a special kind of person (or news outlet) to lie about something when everyone can clearly see the truth.
“See” the truth. As in a picture.
As in PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE.
Enter PolitiFact…
HAHA! Facebook hires Politifact to 'fact-check' a photograph of Biden with Robert Byrd. Despite the photo being real, their judgement is 'Mostly False,' because the caption gets Byrd's rank wrong. He wasn't a Grand Wizard, but an Exalted Cyclops https://t.co/rxYbufysv4
