Joe Biden wildly claims leaders still call him for advice and to stay ‘engaged' in politics
Biden's claim came on Wednesday, when he delivered a speech at the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) convention.
Following his speech, Biden sat down with the SHRM president and CEO, Johnny Taylor, for a live chat.
The pair reportedly spoke about how the former president's life has been since leaving office earlier in the year.
After Biden touted his successes, the 82-year-old revealed he remains engaged with world events and is asked by leaders to get more involved.
'I'm getting calls. I'm not going to go into it, I can't, from a number of European leaders asking me to get engaged. I'm not, but I'm giving advice. Because things are different,' Biden said.
