This week, we identified that when Joe Biden was visiting Wisconsin, he was photographed carrying a tough hat backwards.
The left wing ‘reality checker’ web site Snopes defended Biden, in fact, claiming that the laborious hat was not backwards.
RedState reported:
Snopes Units Itself on Hearth With ‘Truth-Test’ of Biden Sporting a Onerous Hat Backwards
Did Snopes simply have interaction in essentially the most dishonest “fact-check” of all time? Which may be somewhat sturdy given how terrible the fact-checking business is, however their newest work needs to be up there.
The setup, which was reported by RedState on Friday, entails Joe Biden carrying a tough hat backwards whereas attempting to pander to union staff in Wisconsin. The photograph itself is comical, and it was solely a small a part of the senility displayed throughout his journey.
The image obtained the suitable quantity of ribbing from folks on-line. I imply, it’s objectively humorous that, whereas attempting to undertaking himself as working-class, Biden managed to screw up carrying a tough hat. Snopes couldn’t simply depart effectively sufficient alone, although. One in every of their “fact-checkers” sprung into motion to ship one of many dumbest “ackshually” moments in latest political historical past. It’s so dangerous that some thought it was pretend, however it’s actual.
It is actual. https://t.co/eSOG8BobpS https://t.co/NPPaoldb84 pic.twitter.com/Vyrl7mWcCi
