While discussing gun control during Tuesday's Democratic debate in Charleston, South Carolina, former Vice President Joe Biden misquoted statistics about how many Americans had been killed by gun violence since 2007.
"I have a D-minus voting record from the NRA," Sanders said."Thirty years ago, I like lost a race for the one seat in Congress in Vermont because 30 years ago I supported a ban on assault weapons. Right now, my view is we need to expand background checks, end the gun show loophole and do what the American people want, not what the NRA wants."
"Imagine if I stood here and said we give immunity to drug companies, we give immunity to tobacco companies," Biden continued."That has caused carnage on our streets."
He's easily flustered, zero self awareness.
He clearly mispoke in the heat of the moment. Its okay. It happens.
Your math isn’t much better - the population of the United States is NOT 450 million. Not even close. Math4Journalists
Yes, because we're all perfect, and never make mistakes. Especially after traveling around the country, having numerous town halls, debates, speeches, interviews etc... please! 🙄
Joe “Sleepy” Alzheimer!
Time to rest, Joe. Show's over....
I believe Joe

It's true, Im the only survivor in my city.
FAKENEWS You guys are morons. The population of the US stands at 331,000,000+. 150 million would be roughly half, not 1/3. I know math is hard for supposed “journalist”, but come on.
Who stole my jello?! You just ate is Mr. Vice President.
Senility kicking in...
Why does The Donald get a pass to make 1⃣6⃣,2⃣4⃣1⃣ lies, or times he misspoke❓❓❓
I am sure he meant thousand; but there you are Newsweek, focusing on THE most important issue?!?!?
Well, ya know, he’s a LyingDogFacedPonySoldier
It may have been a little high, but I liked Joe’s answer. Need to stop gun violence and stop the NRA.
Uh boy....
He's grasping at some kind of importance. Shut it down, Biden.
A third.

For some reason, reminds me of, 'How many is a Brazilian' 🤣

As Biden Attacks on Gun Record, Sanders Concedes 'Bad Votes'Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden tangled on gun control at the DemDebate, with Sanders calling his 2005 support for a gun manufacturer immunity bill 'a bad vote' and Biden saying he 'led the fight' to pass background checks and ban assault weapons in the '90s Actual transcript. In the City of New York, Bloomberg end up making more money, and thus, beating Trump in the game of business and social mobility. And to top it all off, he did it without any help from his father. Sanders has a D- rating from the NRA. Painting him as a friend of the NRA for one vote would be massively disingenuous. Seems like people are really grasping at straws.
