President Joe Biden claimed that he received a standing ovation while he was in law school — for a speech about a case he hadn&#8217;t even read — and critics immediately called BS.
Biden recounted the alleged incident during his five hours of interviews with Special Counsel Robert Hur – and the story went public earlier this week when, ahead of Hur&#8217;s Capitol Hill testimony, the transcripts of those interviews were published.
According to the president, he was called on in a torts class to discuss a case that he had not read — but said that his subsequent 10-minute discussion on that case was so impressive that his classmates responded with a standing ovation.
&#8220;We had a really difficult professor,&#8221; Biden said. &#8220;He called on me to discuss a case, you know, in your first torts class. And I had never read the case, and I stood up and I spoke for 10 minutes. The whole class stood up, started clapping.&#8221;

Based on the responses to Biden&#8217;s story — many of which were posted via X in the following days — most did not believe that the standing ovation had ever actually taken place.
&#8220;Then the Manager of the school came out of the back office and gave Joe a $100 gift card to Starbucks,&#8221; one person joked.

&#8220;Finished 76th out of 85 students in his law class… So yeah, this totally happened,&#8221; Joe Concha clearly wasn&#8217;t buying Biden&#8217;s claim.

&#8220;Even at a pretty gentle law school like Yale, you can’t get away with buffaloing a professor for 10 minutes about a case you’ve never read,&#8221; Aaron Walker posted.

&#8220;He should have stuck with making up stories about leading civil rights marches. Way more believable than the idea a bunch of 1L students would care enough about his analysis of a random case to stand up and cheer,&#8221; AG (@AGHamilton29) posted.
