Joe Biden has told a lot of lies over his time in office.
But what sets him apart from politicians before him is the shamelessness with which he tells falsehoods—that even after the stories are roundly debunked, he continues to tell the same false story without any concern for reality.
Just to show the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, his campaign account is the same way. Yes, all campaign accounts pump their candidates, but this account also has little regard for the truth.
Both tag-teamed to spread a provable falsehood on Tuesday.
Don’t inject bleach.

And don’t vote for the guy who told you to inject bleach. https://t.co/4ggDwycPlY
"Don’t inject bleach. And don’t vote for the guy who told you to inject bleach," Biden (or the person in charge of his account said). The campaign account said, '"Four years ago today, Trump told Americans to inject bleach on national television."
Except the video they use for their claim doesn't back that up — because former President Donald Trump never said it. It's one of those false stories that the left and some in the media have spread for years despite it not being true and being debunked.
Trump also further clarified, “It wouldn’t be through injections, you’re talking about almost a cleaning and sterilization of an area,” said Trump. “Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t work, but it certainly has a big effect if it’s on a stationary object.”
So no, he never said "inject bleach." But Biden and his team don't seem to care about the truth.
We've also seen Biden spread the "fine people" lie, even claiming that was his reason for running. He's also constantly claiming Trump called members of the military "suckers and losers," despite the fact that has also been debunked. He'll say anything he can to attack Trump, and unfortunately, the media doesn't do its job enough to sufficiently call this out.
This was the UV light "Disinfectant" treatment Trump was explaining.

You should take the One Day Honesty Challenge. Go one day without lying or spreading a hoax. Can you do it?

Doesn’t matter how many times you repeat the lie, it’s still a lie. And if @X was truly on the side of truth, they’d @CommunityNotes you into oblivion.
