Joe Biden Tears Down Trump’s Legacy with Tribute to Fallen Uncle

During a visit to his hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, Joe Biden paid tribute to his uncle Lt. Ambrose Finnegan at a war memorial. Despite facing criticism from the Republican opposition over the accuracy of his family story about his uncle supposedly being eaten by cannibals in New Guinea during World War II, the White House defended the president’s actions.

According to official documents, however, Lt. Finnegan actually died in a plane crash at sea. The White House spokesperson clarified the details and emphasized that honoring his uncle’s memory was a meaningful gesture for the president.

In an effort to contrast himself with his predecessor Donald Trump, who allegedly disrespected fallen soldiers, Joe Biden highlighted his uncle’s story as a way of showing support for veterans. While some may question the president’s cognitive abilities due to the discrepancy between his family tale and official records, it remains clear that honoring his uncle’s memory was central to the focus of his visit.
