Joe Biden’s gaffe comes as Democrats abandon his campaign.
They played a clip while I’m waiting for the press conference, and honestly?
This one wasn’t that bad.
He realized it almost immediately, and came up with a rebound. It wasn’t a good recovery, but it’s better than him just wandering off after it.
If it was a normal candidate we’d laugh about this one, and there’s a lot more important things going on.
Quick edit:
That being said I could have sworn this was supposed to start at 6:30, I don’t know if the Putin comment has changed anything, but he’s not coming out so far.
Well he just called VP Harris; Trump…
I had to rewind and play that again to make sure I heard it right. OMG
Same, wife caught it and I had to see why she was cringing.
In isolation it’s definitely any oopsie. But it’s quite poor timing given that there’s been a lot of attention on him for this type of thing recently.
Also I’m sure Zelenskyy couldn’t name a single person he’d be more mad to be confused with.
4 more years!
