Fact Check: Did Joe Biden Confirm His Role In Donald Trump’s Indictment? Here’s The Truth

Date:

The Democratic Party in the US has faced criticism from the opposition for allegedly using law enforcement as a weapon, following the indictment of former President Donald Trump, who is also a front-runner for the 2024 presidential elections, in a hush-money case. Trump himself claimed that the charges against him were a fabricated case as part of a Democratic conspiracy to interfere with the upcoming presidential elections. 

Against this backdrop, a video in which US President Joe Biden can be heard saying that he’ll make sure that Trump “does not become the President again” is widely shared on social media with a caption: “Joe Biden all but confirmed that his team is coordinating these Trump indictments to stop Trump from taking power again. They will not succeed.”

Here’s the link to the above post.

FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above claim, and found it to be MISLEADING. 

With a keyword search, we found a transcript uploaded on the official website of The White House, dated November 9, 2022. As per the transcript, President Biden made a similar statement in the viral video. Specifically, during a press conference after the November 2022 midterm elections, he was asked how he would provide reassurance that Donald Trump would not return as President. In response, Biden stated that he would take legitimate measures under the Constitution to prevent Trump from becoming President again.

Searching further, we found a news report by C-Span carrying the same video from the press conference on November 9, 2022, with a text: “President Biden News Conference on Midterm Election Results.” At approximately 25 minutes and 50 seconds into the video, the viral video of President Biden’s comments regarding Trump can be heard. 

Thus, it is evident from the above information that an old video has been shared as Joe Biden confirms his role in Donald Trump’s indictment.
