Friends who follow international news know that the current president of the United States is Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. (Joseph Robinette Biden Jr.), generally referred to simply as "Joe Jr." Biden" or "Joey · Biden”。 Interestingly, the childhood classic TV series "Growing Pains" satirized the current US President Joe Biden decades ago. What's going on here? This ghost talks about the words of a family.
Biden was born in Pennsylvania, USA, on November 20, 1942. Biden was nicknamed "Joey" as a child, and he often referred to himself as "Joey" in public after entering politics. Biden”。 On January 5, 1973, Biden, then 30 years, 1 month and 14 days old, became the youngest U.S. senator at the time and the sixth youngest in history. Since then, Biden has been a senator until he became vice president of the United States.
The first few years after Biden was elected to the Senate can be described as a glorious one, becoming a rising political star in American politics, gaining the support of many young people and Jewish groups, which makes Biden full of confidence in entering the White House. In June 1987, Biden announced his candidacy for the Democratic presidential primary. Biden's first few months after running were not bad, and at one point he had the second largest campaign money in the Democratic Party.
However, in September 1987, Biden's election situation changed abruptly. The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Des Moines Chronicle, The San Jose Mercury and many other American media exposed Biden's plagiarism of speeches by other political figures, including British Labour Party leader Kim Nock, former US Vice President Humphrey, former US Senator and former Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, and so on.
Faced with accusations of alleged plagiarism, Biden tried to quibble, only to be exposed by the media to the black history of Biden's thesis fraud in college. As a result, Biden fell into a dangerous danger for American politicians - a media trial, and a large number of voters began to question Biden's creditworthiness, causing his approval rating to plummet. Faced with embattled pressure, Biden even suddenly ruptured an intracranial aneurysm and almost died.
In desperation, Biden announced on September 23, 1987 that he was withdrawing from the Democratic presidential primary, and his first assault on the White House was a failure. Biden then took a seven-month long vacation, not returning to the Senate until the rumors passed. But the plagiarism crisis still led many Americans to see Biden as a "thief who plagiarized someone else's work," an image that Biden didn't get rid of until 1995.
And in 1989, when the fifth season of "Growing Pains" aired, Biden was still the image of a "plagiarist". "Growing Pains" sets the name of a student who plagiarized Carroll's essay as "Joey· Biden", as a sarcastic Biden. Interestingly, Trump's name also appeared in the fifth season of "Growing Pains", but the image is a big philanthropist who is much better than Biden.
