Joe Biden seems to be making headlines for all the wrong reasons these days. First, he bit his wife’s finger for some reason while she was giving a speech. On Sunday, an old video clip of him is making the rounds on social media.
“And by the way, you know, I sit on the stand, and it gets hot,” Biden explained. “I got hairy legs that … turn blonde in the sun and the kids used to come up and reach in the pool and rub my leg down so it was straight and watch the hair come back up again. They’d look at it. So, I learned about roaches, I learned about kids jumping on my lap, and I’ve loved kids jumping on my lap.”
You think I’m kidding? Here’s the video:
Biden: “I got hairy legs that turn blonde in the sun and the kids used to reach in the pool and rub my leg down and watch the hair come back up again..and I tell ya what the men, the guys I worked with down here, they were all guys at the time”

This was the same event where he shared his infamous “Corn Pop” story from June 26, 2017. Since this new clip has gone viral, social media is going crazy reacting to it. Even Texas Governor Greg Abbott expressed his shock at it:
What in the heck is Biden talking about.
This is truly embarrassing and Biden is oblivious to it. https://t.co/F6s28NXysg
