Biden and gaffes: an unstoppable phenomenon

The Washington Post already in 2019 he dubbed it the ‘Lamborghini of gaffes’ and over the years he himself has often defined himself as a ‘gaffe machine’, but in recent months the slips of Joe Biden have increased alarmingly and have become an almost daily stumbling block for the 81-year-old president as well as a source of ridicule from his political opponents, Donald Trump ahead.

Gaffe during NATO press conference

The last two, sensational, shortly before and during the Press conference at the conclusion of the summit of the BORNthe long-awaited event considered by all analysts to be the test of the commander-in-chief to demonstrate his lucidity. And, instead, presenting Volodymyr Zelensky on the stage of the event for theUkraine he called him Putinexcept to correct himself immediately afterwards by giving as an excuse that his thoughts are always on how to stop the Kremlin leader. So, speaking of his number two Kamala Harrishe said “Vice President Trump” and the tycoon wasted no time in mocking him on social media.

Just two days later, another slip while he was telling the same anecdote about G7 in Cornwall. The 81-year-old Democrat in fact recalled that «after having declared to the leaders gathered at the summit that America is back, the German Helmut Kohl he turned around and said to me: ‘President, what would you do if tomorrow you opened the Times and read that 1,000 people had stormed the parliament?’ At a press conference, less than 24 hours later, he confused the Egyptian president Al-Sisi with the Mexican one, then Lopez Obrador.
