(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) President Joe Biden has met a lot of interesting people in his time—first “Corn Pop,” and now “Big Mama.”
On Monday, while delivering a speech in front of a Mack truck, he introduced the latest in his unusual cast of characters.
“The only woman truck driver I ever knew, I met that day,” he said. “She said ‘this is big mama, no room.'”
“Swear to God, true story.”
Nonetheless, many questioned the validity of this story, according to Twitchy.
The chances of this being true are the same as being struck by lightning while being abducted by aliens while being attacked by a bear at the exact same time your winning lottery numbers are drawn.

A few noted the similarities with a character from the 1985 movie Pee-wee’s Big Adventure and suspected Biden, a notorious plagiarizer, of failing to cite his influences.

Others said the yarn was reminiscent of another colorful character from Biden’s past: Corn Pop.
Biden claimed to have encountered the gang leader and faced him down while working at a public swimming pool in the 1960s.
“Corn Pop was a bad dude. And he ran a bunch of bad boys,” Biden said in 2017.
“And back in those days, to show how things have changed, one of the things you had to use if you used Pomade in your hair, you had to wear a baby cap,” Biden continued. “And so he was up on the board and wouldn’t listen to me. I said, ‘Hey, Esther, you! Off the board, or I’ll come up and drag you off.’ Well, he came off, and he said, ‘I’ll meet you outside.'”
Some have suggested that a 2016 obituary for Delaware resident William Morris may confirm the account—although it was likely embellished along the way.
Either way, the tale has become a point of mockery for Biden critics, emblematic of his latent racism and misogyny, as well as his shaky relationship with the truth, which has likely been exacerbated by the onset of geriatric demetia.
Turns out she had a son! He was a bad dude and ran a bunch of bad boys.

I wonder if Big Mama knows Corn Pop.
