Biden Said 6,114 Military Service Members Died From Covid. The Real Number Is 7.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden inflated the number of U.S. military service members who have died from coronavirus by a factor of approximately 1,000.

He said..."Military COVID infected: 118,984. Military COVID deaths: 6,114. Folks, every one of these lives mattered," Biden said at a rally in Warren, Mich.

Yes he did. Curious to see if campaign admits error and drives on or what. We know how Trump campaign handles such blunders.

He was in Michigan at the time, right? Sounds like Michigan numbers. So maybe a word swap thing or copy.

Cue the Trump chorus, breathlessly exclaiming that this is the single most important news item of the day.

I listened to Biden's 'speech' too. It was 99% lies!! Again, not one mention of the riots! Back round applause sounded like maybe 4-6 people there. Joe and Kamala make good liars!

Can't fault Hiden too much. That is pretty close for him.

What did this have to do with Trump?

Togor wrote Biden's speech....

Seems like nothing, Ray, but YMMV

From the link.

While Biden appeared to immediately to catch himself after his gaffe in June -- the pool video of Biden’s comments cuts off after he made the remark – President Trump’s campaign was quick to jump on the former vice president’s comment.

Damn Ray...there were tapes!

He doesn't have to worry about the media calling him on it.

Here's some people posts on that Fox site

The Biden campaign just needs to bite the bullet and have an "interpreter" present at every Biden event. The "interpreter" can tell everyone what Grandpa Joe MEANT to say.

Anybody can get numbers mixed up from time to time. Biden health is a serious issue and yet the media won't address it. Can you imagine if Trump had one tenth of the brain farts Joe has had what they would say..
Hating Trump isn't going to get Joe over the finish line even with all the money and media support. The American people have eyes an aren't stupid like the Democratic people think we are....

That is the Democrat Achilles heel -- they really disdain the American people. They consider the average man inferior -- a "basket of deplorables." And the Three Stooges are a good example.

Once again, Gish Gallop.

Congrats on remembering something from 2016?

Biden has consistently avoided making Hillary's (and Trump's) mistake of insulting a broad swath of the electorate.

Meanwhile Thom Tillis had to take an aid to the woodshed for comparing a 3-time cancer survivor's concern about losing health care to whether or not he can afford to buy a nice shirt. Did that go viral? What do you think?

At this moment I do not believe Mr. Biden has the mental capability to give the command to launch our land based ICBM's or SLBM's if needed. Yes our Minuteman III crews are still on alert and Boomers are still on patrol.
