Joe Just Can't Seem To Stop Himself From Making Up Tall Tales...

   President Biden told the story last week while speaks during an event to mark Amtrak's 50th anniversary at 30th Street Station.
   
   The story was about an Amtrak conductor congratulating him for riding more than 1.5 million miles – but the details of the colorful story just don't seem to add up in any respect.
   
   "When I became vice president, one of the Capitol Hill newspapers estimated that I had taken more than 7,000 round trips on Amtrak over my career. I think that's an exaggeration. I'm going to rely on those two conductors … one of them was a guy named Angelo Negri," Biden said Friday at an event marking Amtrak's 50th anniversary.
   
   "There was an article, I guess my fourth or fifth year as vice president, saying Biden travels 1,300,000 miles on Air Force One [Two]. I used to – the Secret Service didn't like it – but I used to like to take the train home. My mom was sick and I used to try to come home almost every weekend as vice president to see her. I got on the train and Angelo Negri came up and he goes, ‘Joey, baby,’ and he grabbed my cheek like he always did. I thought he was going to get shot. I'm serious. I said, 'No, no, he's a friend.'
   
   "He said, 'Joey, what's the big deal? 1,300,000 miles on Air Force Two? Do you know how many miles you traveled on Amtrak?' I said, 'No, Angie, I don't know.' He gave me the calculation and he said you traveled 1,500,000 miles on Amtrak. The fact is, I'd probably take Angie's word before I'd take the word of what the article said." President Joe Biden
   
   However, the story does not hold water in any respect.  ---  Biden entered the fourth year of his term as vice president around 2013, the conductor Angelo Negri's obituary states he retired from Amtrak in 1993. If my memory serves me correctly Joe Biden was still a senator in 1993.  And  Biden's mother, Catherine Eugenia Finnegan, died in 2010. 
   
   President Biden has a long history of just plain making things up, so I don't attribute this latest fib to the possibility that he was just confused.    Is Joe a pathological liar? 
   
   "Pathological lying, also known as mythomania and pseudologia fantastica, is the chronic behavior of compulsive or habitual lying. Unlike telling the occasional white lie to avoid hurting someone's feelings or getting in trouble, a pathological liar seems to lie for no apparent reason." source ---   https://www.healthline.com/health/patho … %20reason.
   
   It's very curious to me why he finds it necessary to lie just to hear himself lie. Is this kind of habitual lying going to affect his ability to be a trustworthy president? 
   
   I will admit I  have little faith in a man that just seems to feel it acceptable to lie.

      I said this before and I'll say it again.  All politicians lie.  Some just lie more than others.

         That is why they are such a terrible waste of time.

         Do some look like they are struggling to make it through a sentence or two?
         He is visually confused, and it's a shame he is representing America IMO. His cognitive skills are getting progressively worse every day.

   Average person travel time is less than an hour to work. If Biden traveled 1,500,000 miles (not km) by train everyday beyond an average persons weekends or vacation time. Biden would be traveling for 100 years. Not counting to and from train and air station. Not counting 1,300,000 miles in the air. Not counting all the preparations time for each trip. Not counting all the other impossiblties.
   
   Kind of stories you hear from nursing homes, on their last legs traveling always up hill. Not smart enough for most people imprisonment in their homes today.

      I made no mention of that flub due to Biden's pattern of misquoting numbers. It appears this man is senile or just lies to hear himself lie or both. He has a very long history of stretching the truth. Politicians often do this with little made-up stories, just part of the playbook. But, Joe takes it to another level with his long-drawn-out tales.
      
      He gets very elaborate, and colorful, make me wonder if I can believe anything he says. He takes a fish story and makes that fish into a whale.

         Often enough he sounds punch drunk.
         Too many just go on with no questioning. Following with blind faith nationalism. its gotten more dangerous than religion.

            Biden spoke yesterday, and he appeared to be very confused with a frightened look on his face, having a very hard time reading the monitor. When I see this it makes me wonder why his handlers are presenting him in public.

               Why not train an look alike actor to replace him. Like Trump did sometimes, you can tell by the red and blue difference ties.

                  At this point,   I am all for a double being presented instead of the real thing. The world is watching, may as well give them a  slap-happy comedy, instead of a Documentary on mental disabilities.

   People become politicians. They are to take some time to help the citizenry and then get out. Those who become career politicians loose touch with their true roles.
   Their true roles involve standing up ...
   
   For the lives of the people
   For the life of the nation
   For positivity in the light of truth, justice and liberty for all ...
   
   and then go home.

         Jen Psaki  claimed that Biden takes questions pretty much  daily "nearly every day that he's out in front of the press."  This is not in any respect factual.
         
         She went on to state --   "That is not something we recommend. In fact, a lot of times we say ‘don’t take questions,'" she continued. "But he's going to do what he wants to do because he's the president of the United States."
         
         The statement says it all.

   Biden has not only lost touch with his true role, but apparently his own mind ...

   Biden has four planets in Scorpio and his moon, (ruling the mind,) opposes them.
   The moon in Taurus makes him drag his feet or stand firm when he wants to exercise his own will, but the planets in Scorpio reveal a desire for power, no matter how he gets it. 
   
   Conflict arises within him and messes with his psyche when what he must compromise, in the name of power, conflicts with his true will or conscience.
   Maybe.
