Biden calls Trump unfit to lead the military and is off on details of uncle's death
apnews.com/article/biden-uncle-world-war-ii-cannibals-trump-4f3b7d1c988e041fbc07f60f952ca95f
Quick Glance: Biden's Cannibal Story Causes Confusion in Papua New Guinea
- Joe Biden's claim that his uncle was eaten by cannibals in Papua New Guinea during World War Two has sparked confusion and criticism in the country.
- Official war records state that Finnegan died in a plane crash in the Pacific Ocean, with no mention of cannibalism or the plane being shot down.
- Analysts in Papua New Guinea consider Biden's comments unsubstantiated and poorly judged, especially as the US aims to strengthen ties with the country and counter Chinese influence in the region.
- Some residents were simply baffled by the remarks, while others found them unhelpful and damaging to Papua New Guinea's reputation, particularly after Biden cancelled a planned trip to the country last year.

Quick Glance: Trump Narrows Gap with Young Voters, Biden's Lead Shrinks - Survey Results
- A new poll shows that former President Donald Trump continues to reduce his deficit with young voters compared to President Joe Biden.

- Biden holds a significant lead among likely voters who are non-white or female. He outperforms Trump by 47 points among college graduates and by 23 points among students.
- The survey also indicates that Trump's younger supporters are much more enthusiastic about the former president than their peers who support Biden, and that Biden's approval rating among young adults is only at 31 percent.
