“Can’t make it up”: Experts say transcript shows special counsel Robert Hur “lied” about Biden
The full transcript undercuts Hur's claims that Biden could not remember his son's death and had "poor" memory
The full transcript of President Joe Biden’s five-hour interview with special counsel Robert Hur’s investigators “paints a more nuanced portrait” of Biden’s memory than the special counsel’s report, according to The Washington Post, which noted that “Biden doesn’t come across as being as absent-minded as Hur has made him out to be.”
The transcript “could raise questions about Hur’s depiction of the 81-year-old president as having ‘significant limitations’ on his memory,” according to The Associated Press.
Hur in his report declined to charge Biden, arguing that it would be difficult to convince a jury to convict with a memory that the special counsel described as “faulty” and “poor,” noting that Biden could not recall when his son Beau died or when he served as vice president.
But Biden said exactly when his son died in the interview.
This whole kerfuffle seems so stupid. Biden didn't take any memory tests, didn't get evaluated by a psychiatrist or any memory experts, and nobody authoritative on the topic of memory or brain function was involved.
A fair and accurate headline would have been "Republican lawyer thinks Biden is senile." A republican has that opinion? Stop the fucking presses
Even “liberal” media in the US loves Trump and will print anything that might further the close race narrative, regardless of veracity.
Trump gets eyeballs on news, which directly leads to ad revenue. US media is addicted to Trump as a means of selling ad space and would gladly let the country burn down for a few extra ad sales.
It's fortunate that most voters find him so repulsive now that a bigger presence in the news seems to be bad for Trump nowadays.
I miss the days when he was just the guy that hosted the apprentice show and was know for the catch phrase "you're fired". Simpler times
Nice little write up on that Here
The only way out of this is education. This drivel is maddening. Human minds are as wasted and polluted as the environment.
I've long been advocating for the Democratic party to adopt a Teacher's classroom mindset. Think about what Bernie, Warren, and Porter did in basically elevating the understanding of civics, history, and current-events of our country.
Use all donation money to just honestly spoonfeed Americans vital information one bite-size ad at a time.
Even that title would be inaccurate. He just used the situation to lie that he thinks Biden is senile to hurt Biden's chances of getting elected again. It's a blatant violation of ethics.
He doesn't think Biden is senile, he even said Biden has a near photographic memory dealing with the House. Hur misrepresented the truth then pretends the "I don't recall" defense is not the most common defense used in interviews with feds.
An accurate headline would have been: Member of ratfucker party tried to ratfuck Biden.
