The full transcript undercuts Hurās claims that Biden could not remember his sonās death and had āpoorā memory
The full transcript of President Joe Bidenās five-hour interview with special counsel Robert Hurās investigators āpaints a more nuanced portraitā of Bidenās memory than the special counselās report, according to The Washington Post, which noted that āBiden doesnāt come across as being as absent-minded as Hur has made him out to be.ā
The transcript ācould raise questions about Hurās depiction of the 81-year-old president as having āsignificant limitationsā on his memory,ā according to The Associated Press.
Hur in his report declined to charge Biden, arguing that it would be difficult to convince a jury to convict with a memory that the special counsel described as āfaultyā and āpoor,ā noting that Biden could not recall when his son Beau died or when he served as vice president.
But Biden said exactly when his son died in the interview.
He doesnāt think Biden is senile, he even said Biden has a near photographic memory dealing with the House. Hur misrepresented the truth then pretends the āI donāt recallā defense is not the most common defense used in interviews with feds.
An accurate headline would have been: Member of ratfucker party tried to ratfuck Biden.
