Anti-Biden commentators spread false claim that he affixed a Medal of Honor backwards

A false claim that President Joe Biden placed a Medal of Honor "backwards" around the neck of a Vietnam War hero has gone viral on social media with some conservatives citing the invented tale as supposed evidence of Biden experiencing mental decline.A grainy video with the caption "Biden puts medal on backwards," showing the President putting the Medal of Honor around the neck of retired Army Specialist Five Dwight W. Birdwell, was viewed more than 2.9 million times on Twitter between Wednesday afternoon and Friday morning. 

The video was viewed more than 1 million additional times on other Twitter posts with similar captions, and versions also circulated on Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and various anti-Biden corners of the web.The claim is completely phony.Biden correctly put the medal around Birdwell's neck, as clear footage of the Tuesday ceremony proves. 

The graininess of the footage that went viral on social media made it difficult to see that the medal was hanging entirely normally near the top of Birdwell's tie.You can watch clear footage here of Biden giving the medal to Birdwell at the White House.
