President Biden said Friday in North Carolina that “we lost our son in Iraq” — repeating a factual error he’s made at least three other times in the past year.
Biden, 80, spoke of his late son Beau’s death while telling a community college audience about how he intended to retire before ultimately running for president in 2020. “Barack [Obama] and I spent eight years together and then the new administration came in. And in the meantime, things changed in our life, in our family — I lost my son, we lost our son in Iraq,” Biden said.
Beau Biden died of brain cancer at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., in May 2015 — about 20 months before his father left office as veep. The elder Biden is the oldest-ever president, and his repeated misstatements about his son’s death have stoked questions about his mental acuity as he seeks re-election.Beau Biden died of brain cancer at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Md., in May 2015.see also
