President Donald Trump over the weekend expressed his high regard for American law enforcement and troops who are stationed at the southern border during the Thanksgiving holiday by serving them dinner at a Texas event and thanking them for their service.
Joe Biden, appearing for a similar event at Naval Station Norfolk, expressed his fondness for a little girl's ears, and asked her if she was 17. She is 6 years old.
The contrast between the former occupant of the White House, one so feared by Democrats that they have gone to court in multiple states trying to prevent him even from running in 2024, and the current resident of 1600
Pennsylvania, was stark.
Troopers lined up not only for food, but for photographs with Trump, who posed, shook hands and slapped soldiers on their shoulders.
"On behalf of all Americans, THANK YOU for you service and dedication," he said.
Biden used his appearance to repeat a claim of his Naval appointment.And he addressed a six-year-old girl, telling her, "And I love your ears. I love ‘em, they’re really cool."
He walked over to crouch down near the girl, and said, "How old are you? 17?"
Biden, during his political career, has established a pattern of approaching little girls, sometimes to sniff their hair or make personal remarks.
His relation of his "Naval appointment," earned a "slam" from the media.
"By the way, I’m all Navy. But I was appointed… I was gonna go play [football] at the Naval Academy until I found out the other guys in the backfield were a guy named Roger Staubach and Joe Bellino," he said
"In June, Biden told Air Force graduates he applied to the Naval Academy after graduating high school, which was in 1961. Last year, the president told Naval Academy graduates he was 'appointed to the [Naval] Academy in 1965.'
There is no record of either of those things ever happening.
