Joe Biden’s fatal performance has received the majority of the post-debate coverage thus far, with many calling for him to leave. The internet has been relentlessly trying to find a balance between their coverage of Biden’s spectacular collapse and claims that Trump was simply lying his way through the conversation, of course.

However, the lies that Joe Biden told during the debate are n’t getting much ( if any ) attention from the mainstream media during the debate.  ,
And, can you believe it, yet CNN called out some of his falsehoods.
” The truth is, I’m the only president this century that does n’t have any – this – this decade – does n’t have any troops dying anywhere in the world, like he did”, Biden claimed.  ,
CNN point- check Daniel Dale pointed out,” Army have, of training, died on his watch”. Which is visible. The 13 troops killed in Afghanistan’s botched withdrawal and the three men killed in Jordan earlier this year are undoubtedly forgotten by Binde.
Biden’s lies about his glucose cap were finally brought up by Dale. ” He said he has put in a$ 15 per shot cap on insulin in Medicare”, Dale noted. ” It is a$ 35 a month cap. He said it’s a$ 200 cap on overall drug spending in Medicare. It’s$ 2, 000 a time”.
Despite pointing out Biden’s errors, Dale did not point out that, upon taking office, Biden froze Trump’s rules to lower the cost of insulin, and eventually rescinded them, only to put forth his own proposal which many pointed out would n’t help enough people.

His speech on the border was the next big thing from Biden that CNN deigned to call out.
” What I’ve done – since I’ve changed the law, what’s happened? You’re then in a situation where there are 40 % fewer people crossing the border illegally because of what I’ve changed, according to Biden. ” It’s better than when he left business”.
Dale pointed out,” That’s normally no real”.
Well, that’s an insult. Although under Joe Biden, border crossings have reached legendary spikes, I suppose CNN is reporting that.
” He said or at least suggested that unemployment was 15 % when he took office. It was truly 6.4″, Dale pointed out. Trump reportedly wants to abolish Social Security. Trump does n’t. He said billionaires pay 8.2 % in taxes. It’s little higher”.
Dale fact-checked another lateral that Biden has been telling for ages despite being largely rejected.
” All he said was, it’s not that severe”, Biden claimed Trump said of the crisis. Simply apply a little detergent to your shoulder. It’d be most appropriate”.
You can read this reality check for a more in-depth refutation of that lay.

Next came the falsehood that he had been approved by the Border Patrol Union. No, Dale remarked that the unions that supported the frontier bill he had supported always supported him.
The Border Patrol Union also released a statement in opposition to Biden’s assertion.  ,

In all fairness, Dale fact-checked Trump and insisted that he told more whoppers than Joe Biden, even though Dale’s definitions for what constituted a Trump lay vs. a Biden lay were unquestionably different.  ,
