Joseph Biden
Democratic presidential candidate Joseph Biden confused Iraq with Iran in his commemorative speech on the fallen US soldiers. His words are quoted by the Washington Examiner.
“US military personnel have died in Iran and Afghanistan. (…) Each of these fallen angels left behind a family, ”Biden said. However, American soldiers only fought in Iraq. There they conducted two operations: Desert Storm (1991) and Desert Fox (1998).
However, later, speaking about the number of injured, the rival of the incumbent President Donald Trump corrected himself and spoke about the injured in Iraq.
Earlier, Biden made a reservation in a speech about the dead patients with coronavirus in the United States. So, the Democratic candidate got confused in the numbers and forgot how many people in the country died and how many lost their jobs due to the epidemic. “We … are in the middle of a pandemic that has cost us over 85,000 jobs to date. Lives of millions of people. Millions of people. Millions of jobs, ”the politician stammered.
