The claim: Jill Biden said that former Vice President Joe Biden has had three strokes.
At the start of September, President Donald Trump took to Twitter to express outrage over speculations that he had "suffered a series of mini-strokes."
"Never happened to THIS candidate - FAKE NEWS," Trump wrote.
Now, posts on Facebook have suggested that it's actually his opponent, former Vice President Joe Biden, who has suffered from strokes.
One user posted a quote, attributed to Jill Biden, about her husband's health: "I cant believe people are so mean to make fun of Joe when he gets lost for words, dont they know he has had 3 STROKES?
-snip-
The quote in the viral post is fake. There are no reports of Jill Biden making this statement or stating that her husband has experienced strokes.
She last spoke about her husband's health on Aug. 19.
On NBC's "Today Show," Jill Biden called attacks on his cognitive abilities "ridiculous."
"He doesn't stop from 9 in the morning until 11 at night, so that's ridiculous," she said.
On ABC's "Good Morning America," she said Joe Biden is "totally engaged."

If you've observed them both you know that Trump's the one whose cognitive abilities are compromised.

The dumbest people you argue with on line always go straight for that crap.
