Joe Biden's incoherence and making up ridiculous stories matters, even if the Democrats want to do all they can to ignore it or hide it.
Unfortunately, now, much of the world is aware of it, even people in Papua New Guinea, after Biden made up a false story implying his uncle Ambrose Finnegan Jr. had been eaten by cannibals. He also lied about other aspects of the story involving his uncle, falsely claiming he was a pilot and saying he was shot down over PNG. But he said they couldn't find the body because there were a lot of cannibals in the area. But Biden's uncle wasn't a pilot; he wasn't shot down -- the plane ditched, and it ditched in the ocean, not on land and not near any cannibals. Biden also falsely said that his mother's brothers signed up for the military the day after D-Day.
As we reported, some academics and analysts from the country weighed in and were not at all happy with what Joe Biden claimed, finding his story offensive.

Now Papua New Guinea's prime minister, James Marape, is weighing in.
Biden had "appeared to imply his uncle was eaten by cannibals after his plane was shot down over PNG during WWII", Marape's office said in a statement late on Sunday."President Biden's remarks may have been a slip of the tongue; however, my country does not deserve to be labelled as such," Marape said in the statement."I urge President Biden to get the White House to look into cleaning up these remains of WWII so the truth about missing servicemen like Ambrose Finnegan can be put to rest."
The U.S. has been trying to get closer to Papua New Guinea to counter China's influence in the region. Last year, the U.S. signed a defense cooperation agreement with the nation.
But it sounds like Biden may have just set that back a little with his tall tales. That's just one of the ways in which his issues can hurt America. Yet the Biden team wants to sell us this sop about Biden being "sharp as a knife" and put someone who has all these issues back in office.
How embarrassing is it when you have a leader who does things like this, who has to be scolded by a foreign leader because of the stupid things he says? And it isn't just this bizarre comment — it's all the other moments of incoherence that are traveling around the world as well.
Can we forget things like the comment that Biden made implying he might not have a serious reaction if Russia invaded Ukraine if it was a "minor incursion"?

It's why all the bad actors are getting out of hand — because they know they can under Biden. They're all willing to test his weakness and incoherence. And that's a danger to us all.
