President Joe Biden once again grabbed attention this week, but unfortunately, not for the right reasons. While addressing a small gathering in Las Vegas, Nevada, the president discussed his strategy to reduce housing expenses for American households. However, the situation took an unexpected turn when he veered off track and started narrating a disjointed tale about his past as the “most financially challenged individual in Congress.”
“I had the [inaudible] things to be listed as the poorest man in Congress for 36 years. I got a phone call, my wife was campaigning. I was campaigning up in New Hampshire back when that statistic came out in the nineties. And she called — I used to call them because the kids were little when I was away, and say, how’s everything going? I got this, fine. You know you’re in trouble when your wife or husband says ‘fine.’ I said, ‘what’s the matter?’ She said, ‘only elected officials’ husband and wife understand this,’” Biden began.
“She said ‘Did you read today’s paper?’ I said, ‘they don’t have today’s paper, Wilmington paper, Delaware, up in — up in — with Lahey, I’m with Lahey from Vermont.’ And she said ‘well, let me read it. Top of the fold, headline: Biden, poorest man in Congress. Is that true?’ I don’t know if it’s true, but it turned out it was true,” he added.
