US President Joe Biden was part of the other gaffe during the Quad Summit meeting at his residence in Wilmington, Delaware, on Saturday (Sep 21) with leaders of the powerful alliance around.
As Biden was finishing his speech and getting ready to introduce Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he sharply lost the thread and said, “Come on” to one of the staffers.
This video surfaced on social media and shows Biden finishing up his speech at the Cancer Moonshot event. In it, he tells his audience, “So I want to thank you all for being here. And now, who am I introducing next?”
There was a very awkward silence when he demanded to know, “Who’s next?”
After PM Modi stepped towards him, Biden quickly eased and joked, embracing the Indian PM to ease the tension.
However, the incident once again highlighted Biden’s pathetic cognitive features, which led him to quit the presidential race. Netizens virtually dissected the clip, saying that the president’s act of shouting at a staffer was not up to the mark.
One user wrote, “I don’t know whether to laugh or get sad. ” Another added, “What an utter embarrassment!!! How disrespectful to the prime minister of India. Kamala could have greeted him, right? “
A third commenter said, “Trump and Vance need to hit hard on why Kamala tried to hide Biden’s condition, which has been obvious to the world for at least the past year.”
