Joseph Biden actually said...

"I've never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings."

"I have never discussed with my son or my brother or with anyone else anything having to do with their businesses, period."

"I never had a single meeting with him. I had no inclination to meet with him. I've had meetings with Ukrainian officials before, and since, that meeting. None related to a company under investigation."

"I'm proud of my son. I'll go anywhere in the world to fight for the dignity of the American people and the dignity of the office I hold. But it's just not true."
