I’m guessing this was the “son of” or someone related to Corn Pop.
Joe Biden recounted a 1962 story of confronting “CornPop,” a gang leader nicknamed for a brand of cereal, while working as a lifeguard in Delaware. Biden described him as a “bad dude” armed with a razor who threatened him, but they ultimately reconciled, a tale told to highlight his bravery.
Key details of the story told by Biden include:
The Confrontation: While working at the Prices Run pool in Wilmington, Biden scolded CornPop for breaking rules on the diving board.
The Threat: CornPop and his gang, “the Romans,” waited for Biden outside with a straight razor.
The Resolution: Advised by a mechanic, Biden confronted CornPop with a long chain, leading to a de-escalation.
Some say this was just the ramblings of a demented old man. But I say, if you can’t believe your President, who can you believe?

Now, where did Biden suddenly come up with that long chain? Maybe the mechanic was carrying it, as mechanics do when at swimming pools.
