  • President Joe Biden isn’t known for telling the truth. So, it came as no surprise when the Delaware Democrat got up on stage to tell some pretty tall tales during Thursday’s debate with former President Donald Trump.

    From the crisis he created at the U.S.-Mexico border to manufactured hoaxes about his opponent, there was almost no subject Biden didn’t lie about. Here are the 20 biggest whoppers he told during Thursday night’s matchup with the Orange Man.

    1. Border Patrol Endorsement

    Biden claimed he was endorsed by America’s Border Patrol union. That is not true. In fact, the Border Patrol Union issued a real-time fact-check Thursday night stating: “To be clear, we never have and never will endorse Biden.”

    2. Trump Bleach Lie

    Biden claimed Trump told people infected with Covid to inject themselves with “bleach.” Trump did not tell people to do that.

    3. Illegal Border Crossings

    Biden claimed “there [are] 40 percent fewer people coming across the border illegally” under his presidency than Trump’s. That isn’t true, as illegal border crossings have skyrocketed to record highs under Biden’s presidency.

    4. Military Deaths

    Biden claimed he’s the “only president this … decade” who “doesn’t have any troops dying anywhere in the world” under his presidency. That is false. Thirteen service members were killed during Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.

    5. Inflation

    Biden claimed inflation was at 9 percent when he came into office. That statistic is false. The inflation rate when Trump left office was 1.4 percent.

    6. Late Term Abortion

    Biden claimed that Democrats “are not for late-term abortion.” As The Federalist’s Jordan Boyd noted, Biden “has repeatedly promised to legalize unlimited, on-demand abortion through all nine months of pregnancy via a sweeping bill and routinely promoted taxpayer-funded abortion policies.”

    7. Cages at the Border

    Biden claimed Trump was “separating babies from their mothers [and] putting them in cages” when he was president. That statement is misleading. As admitted by the left-wing Associated Press, these were “chain-link enclosures” inside alien-holding border facilities that were created by the Obama-Biden administration.

    8. No New Taxes

    Biden claimed he “didn’t” raise taxes for “anybody making less than $400,000 a year.” That is false.

    9. Hitler

    Biden claimed Trump once said, “Hitler has done some good things.” As admitted by left-wing Snopes, there is no proof that Trump ever said this. The allegation has also been denied by Trump’s staff.

    10. Biden Repeats Debunked ‘Suckers’ and ‘Losers’ Hoax

    Biden repeated the lie that Trump called deceased American soldiers “suckers” and “losers.” Numerous former Trump administration officials have publicly refuted the phony story. Even left-wing Snopes admitted, “there appeared to be no evidence of an audio or video recording of the remarks in question, nor was there any documentation, such as transcripts or presidential notes, to independently confirm or deny the alleged quotes’ authenticity.”

    11. Trump’s Iran Policy

    Biden claimed Trump “did nothing” to stifle Iranian aggression. That is false. For example, Trump ordered the assassination of Iranian general Qasem Soleimani in 2020.

    12. Trump’s NATO Remarks

    Biden claimed Trump told Vladimir Putin, “Do whatever you want,” regarding Russia’s invasion of Eastern Europe. But that’s not accurate.

    Trump’s remarks came during a South Carolina rally, during which he recounted a story from when he was president and speaking with a NATO member. Trump purportedly told this state that he would withhold U.S. support if they didn’t pay their minimum defense spending obligations.

    13. Climate Alarmism

    Biden falsely contended that the “only existential threat to humanity is climate change.”

    14. Efforts to Stop J6 Riot

    Biden insinuated Trump made no effort to ensure demonstrators wouldn’t breach the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. That isn’t true. Trump sought to deploy 10,000 National Guard troops to the Capitol ahead of Congress’s certification of the 2020 election results.

    15. Roe v. Wade

    Biden claimed the “vast majority of constitutional scholars supported [Roe v. Wade] when it was decided” by the Supreme Court in 1973. There is no evidence that’s true.

    16. Beau’s Death

    Biden claimed his son Beau died in Iraq. Beau was not killed in action in Iraq but died from brain cancer in 2015.

    17. ‘Very Fine People’ Lie

    Biden repeated the lie that Trump called white supremacists who participated in a 2017 Charlottesville march “very fine people.” Even left-wing “fact-checker” Snopes recently admitted that claim is untrue.

    18. Unemployment Under Trump

    Biden claimed the unemployment rate was at 15 percent when he came into office. That isn’t true. The unemployment rate was 6.4 percent when Biden was inaugurated in January.

    19. Trillionaires

    Biden claimed there are “1,000 trillionaires in America.” There are not, in fact, any trillionaires in America or the world.

    20. NATO

    Biden claimed Trump “wants to get [the United States] out of NATO.” There is no evidence to suggest that’s true. In fact, Trump regularly pressed NATO countries during his presidency to meet their defense spending commitments.
