Biden said the report's descriptions of his memory and his son's death were “extraneous commentary” that “had no place in this report”. About his son's death, Biden said, “How in the hell dare he raise that?”
“Frankly, when I was asked the question, I thought to myself, it wasn’t any of their damn business,” he said. “Every Memorial Day we hold a service remembering him, attended by friends and family and the people who loved him. I don’t need anyone, I don’t need anyone to remind me when he passed away.”
In response to reporters' questions about his memory, Biden disputed the report's statements and said he's “the most qualified person in this country to be president”.
