Joe Biden has once again shown his true colors, folks! According to an Instagram post, our beloved President took a shot at former President Donald Trump over his recent defamation trial verdict. But hold on to your MAGA hats, because here comes the fact check: it’s all a big fat lie!
FACT CHECK: No, Biden Did Not Mock Trump Defamation Verdict, Post Is Satirical https://t.co/kD3fpQyx3P #BreakingNews #Breaking #News pic.twitter.com/jj8eUhEfK1

The original post, shared on Twitter…oops, I mean X, was actually from a parody account. That’s right, someone out there thought it would be hilarious to pretend to be Biden and mock Trump’s misfortune. Well, let me tell you, it’s not funny. It’s disrespectful and completely uncalled for.
Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty. The satirical post claims that Biden said, “Folks, discipline your children when they are young. You could save them $83 million dollars one day.” Can you believe that? Mocking Trump’s loss of $83 million like it’s some sort of joke. It’s despicable.
But here’s the thing, folks. It’s all a sham. The original post clearly states that it’s parody. And let me tell you, there’s no credible news source out there suggesting that Biden actually made this remark. In fact, USA Today has already debunked this claim. So much for fact-checking, huh?
What’s even more outrageous is that Biden’s official government account, @POTUS, was used in this fake tweet. But upon closer inspection, there’s a “parody” label right there for all to see. Talk about trying to deceive people!
And here’s the cherry on top. Neither Biden’s personal accounts nor the White House’s website have any evidence of this tweet. It’s as if it never existed, just like Biden’s ability to string a coherent sentence together without a teleprompter.
Meanwhile, in the real world, the news is that Trump has been ordered to pay $88.3 million in damages after the defamation trial. But I guess that’s not juicy enough for those who want to see Biden take a swipe at his predecessor.
