Recently, footage of then-Vice President Joe Biden from 2015 has resurfaced on social media. The footage shows former Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions swatting away Biden’s hand as he appeared to reach for Sessions’ granddaughter.
Conservatives have often ridiculed Biden for having strange interactions with young children, and this incident from January 15 only fuels such claims. Popular conservative social media account Travis_4_Trump, uploaded the old CSPAN footage, commenting, “Remember when Jeff Sessions slapped Joe Biden’s hand away from his grand daughter? He knew. They all knew what he was and still is,” he wrote.
“If a grandfather has to swat a man’s hand from his grandaughter, then he shouldn’t be around children, much less running for president,” one person commented on the footage. “The fact there was a single person who supported and voted for this thing is more disappointing than any fraud committed in the process of getting him there,” another person added. “This is the only time I’ve seen anyone protect the child. All the other parents turn a blind eye to joe. Good job protecting the child,” another comment read.
