Biden claims cannibals ate his uncle during World War II; US govt records say otherwise – The Economic Times Video

US President Joe Biden on Wednesday misstated key details about his uncle’s death in World War II as he honoured the man’s wartime service and said Donald Trump was unworthy of serving as commander in chief. While in Pittsburgh, Biden spoke about his uncle, 2nd Lt. Ambrose J. Finnegan Jr., aiming to draw a contrast with reports that Trump, while president, had called fallen service members “suckers” and “losers.” The U.S. government’s record of missing service members does not attribute Finnegan’s death to hostile action or indicate cannibals were any factor.
