Joe Biden is a notorious liar who has turned his entire life story into a work of fiction. Over the years, he’s asserted that he graduated in the top half of his law school class when he was actually closer to the bottom. To pander to various groups, he’s claimed at different times to have been raised in a black church, a Jewish synagogue, and a Puerto Rican neighborhood. He’s claimed to have been a civil rights activist, even though there’s no evidence of it. Oh, he even says his first wife and daughter were killed by a drunk driver (they weren't). He’s been so careless with his lies that he’s repeatedly told the story that he had an epiphany about same-sex marriage during his teenage years, even though he publicly opposed same-sex marriage during his years in the Senate and even for a while as a vice president.
The cacophony of his lies continues to this day as he attempts to make the case for four more years in the Oval Office, and hoo boy, have he and the White House told some whoppers to deny reality.
His poll numbers aren’t that bad
If you follow the polls, you know that things look pretty bleak for Joe Biden. His approval ratings have been underwater since his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, and he not only loses to Donald Trump but to all Republican presidential contenders in most match-up polling. Last month, Biden was questioned about why he was losing to Trump, and he told the reporter, "You're reading the wrong polls."
Politico noted that Biden's campaign has cited a cherrypicked selection of polls showing Biden either tied with or ahead of Trump, and that he told donors in November that while “the press has been talking about two polls … there are 10 other polls we’re winning.” So, according to Biden, he’s beating Trump in 83% of the polls — which is patently false. Trump is not only beating Biden in the vast majority of polls tracked by Real Clear Politics; he’s got a healthy lead in the average of national polling — which are polls that tend to underestimate his support. On top of that, battleground state polling has shown Trump ahead in most of the states that will determine the outcome of the 2024 election.
He is ‘healthy and vigorous'
It doesn’t take a medical professional to see that Joe Biden isn’t well. He is physically weak and mentally frail, and the White House tries its best to hide it by sending Biden off on vacation for 40% of his presidency. But his limited public appearances reveal the truth. In fact, polls show that a bipartisan majority of Americans believe Biden isn’t capable of handling the presidency. Yet last February, a couple months in advance of his official 2024 campaign announcement, White House physician Kevin O’Connor declared that Joe Biden remains a “healthy, vigorous 80-year-old male who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.”
Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Tex.), the former White House physician who served in that position under both Trump and Obama, has noted that Biden’s annual physicals have failed to include assessments of Biden’s cognitive health.
He created 14 million jobs
Since the early months of his presidency, Biden has claimed to have a record of job creation that surpasses all of his predecessors for the last forty years. By his own accounting, he's now created 14 million jobs since taking office. If this were true, his reelection campaign would be a mere formality and he'd cruise to victory in November. However, Biden's claims of unmatched job growth have been so absurdly misleading that even CNN has called him out for his deceptions. Last year, after Biden made a similar claim during his State of the Union address, CNN fact-checked him, pointing out that he "took office in an unusual pandemic context that makes meaningful comparison to other periods very difficult.”

"Biden became president less than a year after the economy shed nearly 22 million jobs over two months, March and April 2020, because of the Covid-19 pandemic," The fact-check continued. "The jobs recovery then began immediately after that, under then-President Donald Trump, but there was still an unprecedented hole to fill when Biden took office."
There is no border crisis.
Even before taking office, Joe Biden laid down the welcome mat for illegal aliens, creating a historic border crisis — not that he or his administration have ever admitted it. For the past three years, the official position of the administration has been that the border is secure. It hasn't been until recently that the administration has made some sort of play to curb the influx of illegal immigrants, which I highly doubt is genuine in the first place. But for all the talk about how secure things are, the American people aren't buying it. Voters want border security, and now, thanks to Joe Biden, they overwhelmingly trust Republicans on the issue of immigration, not Democrats. A Harvard-Harris poll also recently found that a majority of voters believe the southern border is ”largely open and laws are unenforced.”
Inflation is going down
Perhaps no other issue is hurting Joe Biden more than inflation. Prices have gone up so much since he took office that people are hurting badly, as wages can't keep up with the rising cost of goods and gas. Knowing that a president's chances of reelection are so closely tied to the economy, Biden not only tried to claim that the economy is doing great but that inflation is going down — even though it is not. What's really happening is that the rate of inflation has slowed, but prices are still significantly higher today than they were when he took office.
There’s no evidence justifying impeachment
There is nothing more frustrating — especially after the bogus Russian collusion story and the bogus impeachments of President Trump — than someone claiming there's no evidence supporting the impeachment of Joe Biden. But that's what the mainstream media, Democrats in Congress, and the White House have been consistently claiming. Make no mistake about it, the case against Joe Biden is rock solid, and Democrats have been fearing an impeachment inquiry and the enhanced investigative powers they'll have as a result. They'll always push this lie, but the evidence is overwhelming.
