Joe Biden may need to brush up on his history.
Biden, the presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, reminded Democratic Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf Wednesday that he was once known as Pennsylvania's third senator when he was neighboring Delaware's 36-year representative in the U.S. Senate.
In response, Wolf jokingly teased during the virtual event that Delaware once fell under Pennsylvania's authority.
"But we declared our independence on Dec. 7 by the way, it's not just D-Day," Biden, the two-term vice president, replied.

All of this is wrong:
â–¶ï¸Delaware declared its independence on June 15, not December 7 (the date it ratified the Constitution)
â–¶ï¸ D-Day was June 6, not December 7 (that's the date of the attack on Pearl Harbor)
