![]() “I think the press is asking legitimate questions,” Biden began. ![]() He then gave a clear and complete answer to a question from a supporter who suggested that he should push back on reporters who raise so-called court-packing. In reality, the part of the video just before what was clipped out by Trump’s aide shows that Biden told his staff that he wanted to speak more with his volunteers before a separate news conference nearby. WATCH: As Biden starts to stumble with a question about court-packing his staff immediately starts escorting the camera out of the event. While Brennan claimed that what the video showed was Biden being unable to answer a question about Supreme Court reform, and his staff rushing reporters away to conceal this stumble, anyone who bothers to consult the archived recording of the original stream on ABC’s Facebook page can see that this is a brazen lie. While the video was unaltered, it was posted on Twitter, Facebook and YouTube by the Trump campaign’s director of strategic response, Francis Brennan, with an entirely false caption. The video Trump was referring to was a 27-second clip from a 24-minute ABC News live stream of Biden’s visit to meet campaign volunteers at a voting center in Chester, Pennsylvania on Monday. (The fact that Trump mistakenly called video of Biden speaking a “picture” - an error he repeated in reference to a different clip moments later - was a reminder of how absurd it is that he, of all people, is trying to argue that anyone who mangles words lacks the mental acuity to be president.) Trump referred specifically to one of those clips, produced on Monday by his team of rapid-reaction liars, when he suggested that Fox “should show the picture of Sleepy Joe yesterday, when he rushed to Pennsylvania - because he saw that I had 25,000 people at each event - when he rushed to Pennsylvania and he did a statement and he got lost in a fog. ![]() The Trump campaign has produced a series of such videos recently, by monitoring live streams of Biden’s campaign events each day, and then editing his statements entirely out of context to create dishonest clips that fit their caricature of the former vice president as a man in cognitive decline in a way the original recordings do not. But he thought wrong.Instead of carrying Obama’s speeches live, Trump told reporters after he tore himself away from the television, Fox should really be doing more to help him win next week’s election, like showing snippets of Biden’s recent appearances that have been deceptively edited to mislead viewers about the Democratic presidential nominee’s mental state. He thought democratic leaders would be weak. He thought our unity would shatter at the first testing. ![]() It wasn't inevitable," Joe Biden said, adding, "When Putin, and his craven lust for land and power, unleashed his brutal war on Ukraine, he was betting NATO would break apart. Joe Biden also jabbed his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin calling him "craven" while promising Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky full support even without membership in NATO. ![]() He also asked if a lawmaker who had died was present during a White House conference while his NATO mispronunciation moment was widely shared on social media. Joe Biden has been prone to gaffes during his presidency, previously mistaking Ukrainians for Iranians. During the summit, Joe Biden met with Turkey's president Erdogan prior to the bilateral meeting as he congratulated him on the agreement reached with NATO with respect to Sweden while France and UK announced more support to Ukraine military. ![]()
