Joe Biden's verbal gaffes might not be what you think

Hmm... since you prefer Biden over Trump then it's OK when Biden lies.

It’s not OK when either of them lie, but Biden’s lies are a lot different than Trump’s lies

Biden has a lot of experience. He understands the balance of powers, the constitution, and is more likely to respect the limits of the exec branch than Trump. .

And far less frequent, of course. It also matters how they lie. While Biden stutters on stage, Trump types fragmented sentences on Twitter.
 
I did not hear Biden say anything about being a professor in that video.

Did look up his career resume to see if he actually did teach at UP?

Never taught a class... gave a few speeches and a few questions and answers session. I guess some may call that teaching.

So he took the money and ran, but claimed "the University of Pennsylvania, where I taught". Was that statement caused by his stutter?

"When I left the United States Senate, I became a professor at the University of Pennsylvania," Biden said. "And I've spent a lot of time -- and the University of Delaware has the Biden School as well, so I've spent a lot of time on campus with college students."

Biden, quite notably, became vice president of the United States under President Obama when he left the Senate in 2009. It was, however, in 2017 when he received the title of "Benjamin Franklin Presidential Practice Professor" from the University of Pennsylvania.

Biden's claim he ''became a professor'' after leaving Senate sparks confusion | Fox News
 
As the link noted... he did not become a Professor after leaving the Senate. It was after he left the White House. Another stutter mistake?

Not a stutter mistake - a contextual one. Mathematically, Biden was correct: 2017>2009. Literally, Biden resigned from the Senate before UP named him a Presidential Practice Professor. It is how people use "after this" that messes up the statement.

Why Is Media Allowing Joe Biden to Lie About Drunk Driver Killing His First Wife?
As reported by Inside Edition, a police investigation of the accident showed that Mrs. Biden pulled into an intersection after she failed to notice an oncoming tractor trailer, which apparently had the right of way. The truck's driver, Curtis Dunn, put his own life at risk in an effort to avoid the collision; he twisted the wheel so hard that he overturned his vehicle. Delaware Online adds emphatically that neither driver had consumed alcohol. Senator Biden, as reported by the New York Times, nonetheless chose to publicly and falsely accuse Mr. Dunn of killing Biden's wife and child while driving drunk (emphasis added):
"Let me tell you a little story," Mr. Biden told the crowd at the University of Iowa. "I got elected when I was 29, and I got elected November the 7th. And on Dec. 18 of that year, my wife and three kids were Christmas shopping for a Christmas tree. A tractor-trailer, a guy who allegedly -- and I never pursued it -- drank his lunch instead of eating his lunch, broadsided my family and killed my wife instantly, and killed my daughter instantly, and hospitalized my two sons, with what were thought to be at the time permanent, fundamental injuries."

Biden’s memory isn’t the only problem; It’s his lies | News, Sports, Jobs - Minot Daily News

More disturbingly, Biden lied on at least two occasions about a man named Curtis C. Dunn. Dunn was the tractor-trailer driver who, in 1972, tragically struck and killed Biden’s wife and his infant daughter. Along with many other news outlets, the Huffington Post, in 2008, described the accident this way: “Delaware’s Senator-elect would face a more difficult challenge soon after his election, when a drunk driver struck the car carrying his family, killing his wife Neilia and daughter Naomi and severely wounding sons Hunter and Beau.”

Based on Joe Biden’s account, the Huffington Post got it right. Dunn was driving drunk. After all, in a 2001 speech at the University of Delaware, Biden said, “An errant driver who stopped to drink instead of drive and hit — a tractor-trailer — hit my children and my wife and killed them.” But the then-Delaware prosecutor, now a judge, who investigated the accident says, “The rumor about alcohol being involved by either party, especially the truck driver (Dunn), is incorrect.” Furthermore, the tractor-trailer driver had the right of way, and Dunn immediately got out of his truck and tried to render assistance. He was no drunk driver.

Does that offer the proof he lied about a drunk driver killing his wife...

Your turn to offer proof that Trump has been charged with 20 rapes.
