In a NPR interview, Joe Biden again downplayed reports that he has repeatedly told a false war story on the campaign trail.
Said Biden: “That has nothing to do with judgment of whether or not you send troops to war, the judgment of whether you bring someone home, the judgment of whether you decide on a healthcare policy.”
He added: “The details are irrelevant in terms of decision-making.”
