President Joe Biden used a visit to a Mack Truck facility in Pennsylvania on Wednesday to roll up his sleeves and assert solidarity with the workers, telling them “I used to drive an 18-wheeler, man.” He offered no evidence to support the boast.
RNC Research shared the video of Biden and captioned it “Joe Biden, a career politician who has been in politics for 48 years, claims he “used to drive an 18 wheeler.”
RNC Director Zach Parkinson said there was “zero evidence that Biden used to drive an 18 wheeler.”
“The extent of Biden’s trucking experience is that he **rode in** a truck once, for one night in 1973 (he made sure to return home by plane though),” he tweeted.
Parkinson also shared an Associated Press article about Biden’s 1973 journey, which was headlined “Senator observes truckers’ woes.” That article said: “Biden takes 550-mile ride.”
Fox News later pressed the White House on Biden’s claim with a spokesperson observing the president “rode” in a truck back in 1973.
The spokesperson shared with Fox News a 1973 article from the Wilmington Evening Journal showing the president sitting in an 18-wheeler, not driving it.
The president’s spokesperson pointed to a United Federation of Teachers post that touched on Biden driving a school bus in the past as a summer job.
During his speech in Pennsylvania, Biden also joked about wanting to drive a truck.
“Well, I’m not going to say anything; I just came to drive a truck,” the president said. “And I’m not sure which one I want to drive. That one? There’s one back in the corner you can’t see. It’s the biggest damn pick-up truck you ever saw in your life.”

The man is deep into dementia. He probably believes he drove it.
I expect to see him eating on the front lawn of the White House any day.
Maybe he got that confused with the time he spent working as a lot lizard?
This is why they didn’t let him campaogn

Coulda stopped at “biden Sparks Confusion”
To improve its efficiency and reduce costs, the MSM should attach the following caption to every Sleepy Joe article/report: "Joe Biden Sparks Confusion (Again)"
Good one.
The man has pudding for brains.
You know this will never make it to the ‘Joe Biden Lied’ file. Just another cute anecdote Joe told. Ahhh.
While a disagreement with anything Trump said was considered a ‘Lie’.
This is not going to end well.
Great minds think alike. ;)
Maybe he thought he was having the time of his life like the guy in the first episode of Movin On.
Will and Sonny treat a screwed up jerk of a guy to a decent time who has short life left due to some disease.
