'Users on social media say presidential candidate Joe Biden called service members β€œstupid bastards” to insult or disrespect his audience. #MillenialsWillWinTheWar #CityCouncilMeetings #USSFBalboaBoeingAirports #TurningPoint #CharlieKirk #Universities #Colleges' (666) ================= News from the Left News from the Right Joe Biden did say "clap for that, you stupid bastards" during a 2016 speech to U.S. troops, but the remark was made in jest, not as an insult. He was encouraging applause for Air Force Lieutenant Karen Johnson, whom he had previously appointed to the academy, after a joke about his own good judgment fell flat. Multiple fact-checkers confirm the comment was taken out of context, noting that Biden praised the troops throughout his 30-minute speech at Al-Dhafra Air Base in the UAE. He called them "the finest generation of warriors the world has ever, ever known" and spoke about the "incredible sacrifices" they make. His campaign and footage showing service members smiling and laughing support the interpretation that the comment was intended humorously. Biden referenced his late son Beau, a major in the Delaware Army National Guard, during the speech. The clip resurfaced in 2020 amid political debate, shortly after reports that President Trump allegedly referred to fallen troops as "suckers" and "losers." Outlets including Reuters, PolitiFact, and Snopes rated claims of disrespect as "Half True" or misleading due to lack of context. AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts. Elaborate What was the full context of Biden's 2016 UAE speech? How did Trump's alleged comments differ from Biden's joke? Did the resurfaced clip impact the 2020 election?
