Biden Suffered Memory Issues About Career During Classified Docs Probe
On Thursday, Hur released a report on his year-long investigation into Biden's mishandling of classified documents. He said that it was not worth initiating a criminal case against the US president because in court before the jury he may appear as a "sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with poor memory." The report says that, during communication with the special prosecutor's team, Biden demonstrated problems with his memory, could not accurately place the beginning and end of his term as Barack Obama's vice president, or name the date of the death of his son Beau. The White House blamed the criticism within the report on pressure from Republicans.
