He did not say what he did when he was 30 and the woman was a preteen.

"You gotta say hi to me,” Biden said mid-speech at the National Education Association headquarters in DC. “We go back a long way. She was 12, I was 30. But anyway, this woman helped me get an awful lot done.”

      Agreed, there's definitely worse things he's said but it's a Demon Mode Brandon moment.

        I think the only context this can't be creepy as shit is if he means to imply that she was like, the daughter of a friend of his or a colleague or something and that's how they initially met, and then when she was an adult he gave her a job or something. That's literally the only way this can't be creepy.

          She was on the student council when he did a speaking gig at her middle school in Dover, and he recognized her because she's the daughter of Bob Chevrolet, proprietor of Bob Chevrolet's Long Cars. He died. Uhhh, back in '03. His business was taken over by the Portuguese -- the uh, the number one in the Portuguese screen door sales.
