Biden's New Origin Story Gets Even Wilder at State Dinner, While Jill's Dress Is Just Awful

After a few days of D-Day remembrances, Joe and Jill Biden attended a state dinner in Paris on Saturday.

That's the event that Jill wanted to fly back for (on our dime?), after having flown back to Wilmington to be at Hunter's trial on Friday. I think that's a lot of why she wants to keep Joe in the position: she likes such recognition, and she doesn't want to give it up.

When she arrived to enter the state dinner, it looked like her dress was so tight, that she was having a little trouble walking in it. But even beyond that, what was that thing trailing behind her?

Of course, the MSNBC host has to kvell over that dress, when it was a hot mess. Without the train and less tight, it might have been nice.

But It looked kind of like she was eliminating a bedsheet. So, both she and her husband are sparking questions about having "accidents" in France.

Even in that dress, she had to help lead him up the stairs.

National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said, “One of the things the president respects and admires so much about President Macron is that he’s as honest and as forthright as Joe Biden is,” and “That’s what he wants to see in a friend and an ally — an ability to shoot straight, say what’s on your mind.”

As honest and forthright as Joe? It's not a good thing to insult our allies like that.

Then Biden made remarks during the dinner. That's when the origin story he started in earlier remarks got wilder. He had claimed he was a "student of French history." Now, he claimed that he had been told he was a "son of the American Revolution" because of his middle name, Robinette, that he had an ancestor who came over with the Marquis de Lafayette and "never went home."

I might believe he's old enough to be a "son of the American Revolution." But of course, there's no support for what he's saying. That doesn't prevent him from saying it, and adding it to all the other stories he tells about how he is related to everybody and everything.

And it's funny that, suddenly, he's "French," but then he doesn't know that his name in French is pronounced similarly to how it's pronounced in English -- Robinette, with the "t" sound being pronounced, like "baguette." It's not pronounced in French the way he pronounces it.

But he's Joe, wrong again.
