Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden made the untrue statement during an interview on CNN on Friday when he said Russian election meddling did not happen during the Obama-Biden administration, a statement that led to the 76-year-old being mocked online.
"Look what's happened to Putin, while he's trying to undo our elections, he's unblocking elections in Europe," Biden told CNN's Chris Cuomo. "Look what happened in Hungary. Look what happened in Poland. Look what happened - look what's happening." "Do you think it would have happened under my watch or Barak's?" Biden continued. "You can't answer that, but I promised you it wouldn't happen and it didn't."
While Biden was vice president, the Russians meddled in the 2016 presidential election, even prompting Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, to say that the Obama administration shares responsibility for what happened.
Biden also claimed that it was not known if Trump was re-elected, NATO would be there for 4 or 5 years.
Jens Stoltenberg, secretary general of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, said earlier that Trump "is committed to NATO" and that Trump deserves credit for helping NATO secure $100 billion in additional defense funding. .
"So we see some real money and some real results", said Stoltenberg. "And we see that the clear message from President Donald Trump is having an impact."
Biden was widely mocked online in response to his false claims, which received no response from CNN's Cuomo.Adapt Hashtag.al
