President Joe Biden is attending a celebrity fundraiser Thursday night in Westchester, New York, but he stopped by Syracuse on his way to address the police union, which recently lost two members. Storyteller-in-Chief Biden likes to relate to his audiences; some might call it pandering. If he's calling the family of a service member killed overseas, he empathizes that his son was killed in Iraq, so he knows how they feel.
Beau Biden joined the Delaware National Guard in 2003 and rose to the rank of Major in the Army's Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG) (i.e., the Army's legal services). In 2008, he started a one-year stint of active duty service that included a 7-month deployment in the Iraq combat zone. He returned home in September of 2009. On May 30, 2015, Beau Biden died from brain cancer in the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.
Maybe Beau Biden wasn't killed in Iraq. Maybe it was while he walking the beat as a police officer. Biden knows how much the families of police officers dread that phone call every time they go on duty. He's gotten one of those phone calls. He knows.
RNC Research (@RNCResearch) ~ BIDEN: "Every time a police officer puts on that shield every morning, their husband or wife, whatever it is, or child, worries about will they get that phone call. I got one of those phone calls."

Travis Davis (@RealTWDavis) ~ He can’t stop ... has to be about him.
President Doctor (@LDreeniatnuom) ~ He's the first person in the history of the world to have a family member die, apparently, which is why it's always all about him.
