President Joe Biden recently went on a trip to California to give a speech, and what he said is coming under scrutiny.
Biden was in San Francisco, California is on May 10, 2024, and while speaking, referenced a false claim about former President Trump seemingly attempting to tell a crude joke.
“Remember him saying the best thing to do is just inject a little bleach in your arm? That’s what he said. And he meant it. I wish he had done a little bit himself,” Biden reportedly said.
As you know, Trump was referencing experimental UV technology and the White House transcripts from the Trump administration prove it:
“Thank you very much. So I asked Bill a question that probably some of you are thinking of, if you’re totally into that world, which I find to be very interesting. So, supposing we hit the body with a tremendous – whether its ultraviolet or just very powerful light – and I think you said that that hsn’t been checked, but you’re going to test it. And then I said, supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way, and I think you said you’re going to test that too. It sounds interesting,” Trump said.
“Right. And then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning. Because you see it gets in the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs. So it would be interesting to check that. So, that, you’re going to have to use medical doctors with. But it sounds – it sounds interesting to me,” Trump added.
Later, Trump was asked for clarification, and he explained that the treatment “wouldn’t be through injection.
Biden thinks he’s being funny as he fly’s to California begging for money in the meantime:

When the ’24 race began to take shape, I thought Pres. Biden had a strong pitch to voters: a rebounding economy and a return to normalcy after the chaos of Covid & Trump.
Things haven’t played out that way.
