    But only one lies out of compunction, it's his nature, might not even know he's doing it.

    I'm curious if Biden thought the cannibals were a part of a racial jungle.

    He was being culturally sensitive. Cleary accepting that cannibals need to eat and had no blockage against eating someone fresh and his uncle was shot down in the wrong place.

    How can one lie, and not know he's lying? Isn't "intent to deceive" a necessary component of a lie? So often, we see people conflate ignorance with deception. One can espouse his honest beliefs, even if they're wrong, and not be lying, can't he?

    So tell me - what is more dangerous - someone telling joke type stories or someone suggesting you ingest bleach to cure a virus

    Well I suppose it's true that he has cognitive issues. I can accept ignorance as his excuse.

    From apparently not knowing the difference between a simile and a metaphor to now apparently not knowing what lying is, I'm beginning to suspect that the party of allegedly smart people are really not that smart.

    No, it’s just maga trying to make mountains out of molehills to distract from trump's mountain of crimes.
    They’re getting desperate if they think this sort of nonsense matters to anyone.

    You are apparently ignorant of what the word lying means, friend.

    Anyway, so, I am guessing Biden's uncle did not get eaten by cannibals, yes?

    He could have been, fun story, started with a caveat as to the precision.

    I remember when Ronald Reagan would tell WWII stories in public. Stories that came right out of Warner Brothers scripts.

    Reagan spent the war making training films.

    ‘Well, we do know that this trope was circulated by right wing media to distract from Biden/s other remarks. Remarks in which he noted that Trump had called members of the military “suckers and losers”.

    Air Force records say it ain't so. The track record of Joe Biden says that he believes whatever random thought pops into his head at the time, and will state it as fact.
    I don't think he knows the difference- and I know no person in that condition is capable of conceiving the kinds of actions Joe is lending his name and office too. This is just one of a string of such examples, most of which are not so harmless.
    Joe- is a Pinocchio, and America is in deep trouble.

    The government of New Guinea didn't think so.

    I saw a news video yesterday of Biden giving a political rally speech in which he was reading off the teleprompter. Nothing new. So, I'll quote the man . . . "Four more years pause". For the lefties and those who say Biden is sharp, who don't get it . . . the teleprompter was telling Biden to say, "Four more years", and then pause for the audience to chant, "Four more years". Sad. Do you really want this man to represent you?

    Well, either he knew what he was saying was untrue, which would make it a lie, or he thought it was true. If the latter, he's delusional. Cognitive issues are a valid excuse, and should be alarming for everyone.
