Flashback: Obama Admin Forced to Apologize For Biden’s Reckless Comments on Swine Flu (VIDEO)

Joe Biden needs to sit down and shut up about how President Trump is handling the Coronavirus.

Biden attacked President Trump in a speech on Thursday.

The former Vice President slurred his way through his speech.

Biden wants Americans to forget what a failure his administration was during the H1N1 (Swine flu) crisis.

Barack Obama didn’t declare a national public emergency until after millions of Americans were infected with Swine flu.

Not only was Obama’s response to the Swine Flu pandemic anemic, his VP, Joe Biden made reckless comments unsupported by science and experts.

“I would tell members of my family — and I have — I wouldn’t go anywhere in confined places now. It’s not that it’s going to Mexico in a confined aircraft where one person sneezes, that goes all the way through the aircraft,” Biden said on NBC’s “Today” show.

“That’s me,” Biden said.

“I would not be, at this point, if they had another way of transportation, suggesting they ride the subway,” Biden said. “From my perspective, this relates to mitigation. If you’re out in the middle of the field and someone sneezes, that’s one thing. If you’re in a closed aircraft, a closed container, a closed car, a closed classroom, that’s another thing.”

Biden’s comments drew so much criticism that the Obama admin had to apologize for his incompetence.

Obama’s press sec Robert Gibbs was grilled by Jake Tapper about Biden’s comments on the travel industry and forced to apologize.

Biden also got hammered by Democrat Senator Tom Harkin and the Center for Infections Disease Research and Policy.
