To the editor: Buried more than 20 paragraphs into your article on the presidential candidates' instances of dishonesty and mistakes, there is a statement by Joe Biden that is propped up as a lie that justifies this comparison to Donald Trump.

It's a moment in history—the first U.S. president facing criminal charges in an American courtroom. Yet only a handful of observers are able to see or even hear what is going on.
