“Joey Baby!” – Biden Repeats Debunked Amtrak Story About Guy Named Angelo Who Grabbed His Cheek, “I Thought They Were Gonna Shoot Him” (VIDEO)
Joe Biden on Monday delivered remarks at Amtrak Mechanical Services in Bear, Delaware in which he announced $16 billion in federal investments for railway projects in Delaware.
Biden, 80, not once, but twice – in less than an hour – repeated the debunked story about an Amtrak conductor named Angelo.
“When I was Vice President they did an article that Biden had traveled I think it was 1,200,000 miles on aircraft…and so I’m getting on the train…and I guess I shouldn’t say his whole name…and then he walked up and he goes, ‘Joey baby!’ and grabs my cheek and I thought they were gonna shoot him,” Biden said to laughter.
Biden said the conductor was impressed he traveled over 1 million miles by train.
