Either those who write Joe Biden's speeches for him have sadly failed to run their prose by reality, or the train already has departed for the octogenarian.

In fact, he's made the claim now that ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi "helped rescue the economy in the Great Depression."

Joe Biden just said with a straight face that Nancy Pelosi "helped rescue the economy in the Great Depression."

The glitch for Biden is that Pelosi was born in 1940. The Great Depression generally ran from 1929 to 1933, with some economic impacts lingering for several years after that.

The Gateway Pundit withheld nothing in its comment that, "He's shot."

Biden was attending a gala put on by the abortion-promoting Emily's List at the time.

Biden claimed Pelosi will be remembered as "one of the most consequential speakers in the history of the United States."
