“Years ago now — 15 years ago — I was in Washington doing ‘Meet the Press.’ It was a sunny Sunday and lightning struck at home on a little lake that is outside of our home — not on a lake, a big pond,” Biden said.

“And it hit a wire and came up underneath our home into the heating ducts, air conditioning ducts. And to make a long story short, I almost lost my wife, my ’67 Corvette and my cat.”

    Oh the one hand: “kitchen fire” makes it sound like like an unserious stovetop mishap vs a fire that happened to manifest in the kitchen after a lightning strike. Pretty disingenuous but it’s NYPost so not surprised

    On the other: Whinging about how you nearly lost your classic sports car in a fire to people whose lives have been at worst destroyed or at best irrevocably altered is not a good look Brandon. Not doing much to beat the “out of touch Dem” allegations
