Quote:"There was an article, I guess my fourth or fifth year as vice president, saying Biden travels 1,300,000 miles on Air Force One [Two]. I used to – the Secret Service didn't like it – but I used to like to take the train home. My mom was sick and I used to try to come home almost every weekend as vice president to see her. I got on the train and Angelo Negri came up and he goes, ‘Joey, baby,’ and he grabbed my cheek like he always did. I thought he was going to get shot. I'm serious. I said, 'No, no, he's a friend.' 

"He said, 'Joey, what's the big deal? 1,300,000 miles on Air Force Two? Do you know how many miles you traveled on Amtrak?' I said, 'No, Angie, I don't know.' He gave me the calculation and he said you traveled 1,500,000 miles on Amtrak. The fact is, I'd probably take Angie's word before I'd take the word of what the article said."

Biden's comments have flown under the media radar so far. However, a few elements of the story seemed out of place. Biden entered the fourth year of his term as vice president around 2013, and Negri's obituary states he retired from Amtrak in 1993, while Biden was still a senator. Meanwhile, Biden's mother, Catherine Eugenia Finnegan, died in 2010.

Additionally, Biden's office celebrated him hitting 1 million miles on Air Force Two in 2015.

"A few months ago, Vice President Joe Biden crossed the million-mile mark aboard Air Force Two – the official plane of the Vice President. … I wanted to give you a sense of what those more-than 1 million miles have looked like these past seven years," Biden's vice presidential photographer David Lienemann wrote in a blog post in February 2016.

So in his "fourth or fifth year as vice president" he was "going home to see his sick mother" who died during basically his second year as vice president.  He was supposedly approached by a conductor that had retired close to ten years prior.

He also never passed the milestone of one million miles traveled until well after that.

Where is the "fact check" on that bunch of babbling?  Is this all just a blatant outright lie, or does sleepy joe not remember dates too well?

He's always made up things whenever he needed to his whole life and usually no one calls him on it. He goes home every weekend for a reason. We know he is at best a dirty perv and the rumors are flying about him, a judge, and others near where he lives.
