Biden makes another gaffe as he calls Kim Jong Un the president of SOUTH Korea at glitzy fundraiser in California
Daily Mail ^ | 5/10/24 | Nikki Schwab

resident Joe Biden called North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un the president of South Korea at a closed-door fundraiser Portola Valley, California Friday.

Biden, 81, was going after his 2024 rival, former President Donald Trump, for praising the North Korean leader after they met a handful of times during the Republican's administration.

The president talked of Trump's pride from 'love letters from South Korean president Kim Jong Un.'

The president of South Korea is Yoon Suk Yeol, who Biden has met a number of times - including at a White House state dinner, an official trip to South Korea and a summit at Camp David - since Yoon was elected in 2022.

Since being sworn-in, Biden has worked carefully to cultivate relationships with the leaders of South Korea and Japan to counter the rise of China.

The flub comes a week after the president called Japan 'xenophobic' at another private event with donors.

At a fundraiser at D.C.'s glitzy Mayflower Hotel to mark the start of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, the president talked about why he believed the U.S. economy was stronger than several Asian nations.

I wouldn’t describe the Mayflower Hotel as glitzy maybe tired but definitely not glitzy.

I like to look on the bright side. So I’ll say it could have been worse. Biden could have called Kim Jong Un the president of South Dakota.

“ Beau died in the Korean war”
*******************************

Yes, he was killed at the first Battle of Pork Chop Hill where, despite his heroism that saved the day, he was unjustly denied the Medal of Honor. He would later die in Iraq also.

My conjecture is that all his flubs are actually Freudian slips. He’s just revealing his plans, hopes and dreams.
