This is hilarious and sad.
Biden has apparently told this story before and now he’s spinning the yarn again. He claims that years ago when he was a lifeguard at a pool in a black neighborhood in Delaware, he had a confrontation with a gang leader named “Corn Pop.”

Biden recounts harrowing incident with gang leader named ‘Corn Pop’
Biden has regaled audiences with parts of the story several times, which he claims took place when he was a lifeguard at a predominantly black pool in Wilmington, Delaware. He remembers how when he kicked a local gang leader named “Corn Pop” out of the pool for violating the rules, Biden was warned that Corn Pop was going to be waiting for him after work with a switchblade.
Biden said he prepared himself by wrapping a metal chain around his arm. Corn Pop was waiting by Biden’s car “with three guys and straight razors. Not a joke.”
“And I looked at him, but I was smart then, I said first of all, I said when I tell you to get off the board you get off the board, and I’ll kick you out again, but I shouldn’t have called you Esther Williams, I apologize for that,” Biden said, revealing Corn Pop was stunned by the apology and decided to not attack him.

This is BIZARRE!

The part about how you had to wear a bathing cap if you wore “pomade” in your hair is especially hilarious.
This is the Democrat front-runner?
