No, Democrats, the Obama-Biden Administration Was Not Scandal-Free

Rich Terrell

Legal Insurrection  "Joe Biden started his official 2020 presidential campaign launch  with a bang this week by declaring two glaring whoppers in two days.

"First was his announcement video which focused on the oft-debunked media-driven lie about President Trump’s response to the August 2017 Charlottesville riots. The second was his declaration that the Obama-Biden administration was scandal-free.

"Biden made the absurd claim on a Friday segment of ABC‘s “The View” program. Newsbusters has the transcript of the former veep talking fondly about his former boss:

BIDEN: The thing I’m proudest of is we coincidentally were each in a different part of the country and we were each talking to groups of people that were being televised, the same day, purely coincidentally we were asked what are you proudest of from your administration? You know what I said –it turns out he said the same thing and probably a little more clearly than I did. Is that, not one single whisper of scandal.

BEHAR: Not one!

BIDEN: Not one single whisper! [applause] That’s Barack Obama! That’s because of Barack!

BEHAR: I know! He’s amazing!
