Biden: “I know there’s some attention paid to some language in the report about my recollection of events.
There is even reference that I don’t remember when my son died.
How in the hell dare he raise that?
Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, wasn’t any of their damn business.
Let me tell you something.
Some of you have commented.
I wear since the day he died, every single day, the rosary he got from Our Lady of — every Memorial Day we hold a service remembering him, attended by friends and family and the people who loved him.
I don’t need anyone, I don’t need anyone to remind me of when he passed away.
The simple truth is, I have sat for a five-hour interview, over two days of events, going back 40 years at the same time I was managing an international crisis.
Their task was to make a decision about whether to move forward with charges in this case.
That was their decision to make.
That’s the counsel’s decision to make.
That’s his job.
And they decided not to move forward.
For any extraneous commentary, they don’t know what they’re talking about.
It has no place in this report.
Bottom line is, the matter is now closed.
I’m going to continue what I’ve always focused on, my job of being president of the United States of America.
I thank you, and I’ll take some questions.”
