Rep. Garamendi on Biden's latest claim: 'Don't we all tell stories' with 'more flavor than actually occurred' - www.foxnews.com

Excerpts from article:

...Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif., Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden's surrogate, on Saturday dismissed the latest controversy involving an unverified story the former vice president told claiming he was arrested in South Africa trying to free Nelson Mandela from prison.

..."Don't we all tell stories and [with] a little bit, perhaps, more flavor than actually occurred," Garamendi told Fox News' Bret Baier before deflecting to President Trump.

...TRUMP ACCUSES 'CRAZY' DEMS OF 'DISINFORMATION,' PREDICTS NEVADA CAUCUS PROBLEMS DURING VEGAS RALLY. The New York Times reported Friday it has been unable to confirm that such an event took place and noted that Biden left the story out of his published memoirs.

...The congressman promoted Biden as the man with "Experience" to lead, dismissing Biden's storytelling as something he's always done.

..."I've known Biden for 30 years. I was his campaign chairman in 1988. He was telling stories there. Sure he does. And you do. And I do sometimes embellish our stories or we don't quite get it right," Garamendi said.
