On Monday, President Biden held an outdoor ceremony on the White House lawn to talk about the trucking industry. In the course of speaking, he repeated his tall tale about having had a "commercial driver's license" (CDL) while he was a young senator and having driven tractor-trailers.
At the 21:43 of his speech, Biden said, "I used to drive a truck; it's a long story[.]" And at the 24:51 mark of the speech, he proceeded to tell us the story.
Basically, he said, while helping out his father, the used car salesman, he used to go up to Philadelphia to pick up tractors or entire rigs

Didn’t his first wife pull out in front of a big truck and was killed along with his daughter? Joe Tonka (good one!) used to say the driver drank his lunch, implying he was drunk. That was a total fabrication intended to illicit sympathy. I’m very surprised he didn’t use that story

I know for a fact he is lying about holding a CDL. Up until the Commercial Vehicle Safety Act was passed in the late 80s, the CDL did not exist. BiteMe started his Senate career in 1974. Truck drivers, myself included, held Chauffeur's licenses back then, and had to train and upgrade to class A and B CDLs in 1986 and 87.

Next time out, Brandon will likely claim he was an Engineer on an Amtrak train making the midnight run between DC and Delaware braving blizzards and such to bring food and medicine to his home state cut off by the weather. What a guy. He needs to give himself the Medal of Freedom.

As early as 1967, Dementia Jo's father owned a Chevy dealership in Delaware, and when Jo married his draft exemption, Nellie, Jo's dad gave then as a wedding present, a new Corvette, which Jo still owns.
Referring to Jo's dad as a mere 'car salesman' is an insult, and is wrong.
But the CDL and 1973 is just one more Dementia Jo fantasy.

Based on the author's description of licensing back then... I believe Biden might have driven a truck. Did the Biden family have a car business in Delaware or in Pennsylvania?

Big union guy driving (bs) or riding with a guy driving a truck during a strike? Riding with a scab? So he's a scab too.
Media? Hello?

When Sleepy Joe talks to expectant mothers, will he reference the nine months he was pregnant with demon-spawn Hunter?
When President Depends talks to the National Strippers Union, will he reference the hours he spent as a pole dancer?
When the Demented POTUS talks to a group of brain surgeons, will he reference his years spent in medical school and residency programs?
Just wondering.

Next he will be telling us that he did that ride along with JW "River Rat" Edwards, the guy who actually started the 1974 truckers strike(when he ran out of gas on I-80 in Blakeslee Pa) leading to the deaths of ten people and the Ohio National Guard being mobilized, occupying truck stops and over passes where snipers had been taking potshots at drivers not honoring the strike.
Yes, part of the issue was fuel prices and Govt mandated rationing...but it was also over the Govt mandated 55mph speed limit as well.
"River Rat Edwards" was actually from Overland Park Kansas....Sen Bob Doles hometown.

Don't forget, it was a trucker who had the unfortunate problem of colliding with Biden's first wife on an icy road when she couldn't/wouldn't stop at the sign. Could be his guilty conscience is acting up again, for he really did libel that driver when it was the fault of his dead wife in the first place.

He's like Walter Mitty, but with a evil, corrupt, mean streak. Walter Mitty was just a harmless dreamer, Joe is evil.

Actually, #14, Dole is from Russell, KS way out in the middle of the state on I-70, about 250 miles west of Overland Park. Overland Park is right on the state line next to Missouri, here on the south side of the KC metro area, a couple of miles from me. Dole was never around here except perhaps passing through on a campaign trip some time.
I asked friends from Russell about Dole. They didn't have much good to say about him, even before he went into politics. He was a Deep State backstabber, and INCREASED the gun control laws while running as a "conservative". He was a liar.
