A confused-looking President Biden paced back and forth behind King Abdullah II of Jordan Monday, apparently unsure of where to stand ahead of the royal’s remarks.
“Your majesty, over to you,” Biden, 81, told the king after welcoming him to the White House.
As Abdullah prepared to deliver his speech, the president shuffled around behind him and the podium, gazing down at the floor as if looking for a mark indicating the proper place for him to stand.
Biden waffled between two different spots before settling on what was initially his first choice, to Abdullah’s left side and in front of the Jordanian flag.
The president’s indecision appeared to throw off the king, who at one point looked over his left shoulder expecting to see Biden but he wasn’t there.
“I switched sides on you,” Biden said, before moving over to the left side of the now smiling king.
Biden’s latest episode of onstage confusion comes days after special counsel Robert Hur opted against recommending criminal charges against the president related to his handling of classified White House documents, in part because a jury may view Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
Biden couldn’t recall the years he served as Barack Obama’s vice president and when his late son Beau Biden died, according to Hur’s report.
RNC Research, an X account managed by the Republican National Committee, seized on the gaffe, clipping the video with the caption, “BIDEN: What am I doing? Where am I going?”
“The world is laughing at US,” Andrew Giuliani, a former Trump administration official and the son of the former NYC mayor, wrote on X, sharing footage of the strange moment.

This is what you were talking about?
Being mentally confused is still no excuse for staging and participating in this ugly pro/ Muslim terrorist propaganda spectacle. And at our White House, too! Makes me want to puke!!

“An aide places an apple box for King Abdullah II of Jordan (center) as he and President Biden deliver remarks during a press conference on Feb. 12, 2024, at the White House.”
An apple box for the King to stand on? Was it the King’s royal apple box or does the White House have no platforms for short folks and had to grab a box from the kitchen?
As one FReeper put it, “Biden is in Roomba Mode.”...................
Commander In Chief? NO
Communicator In Chief? What a Joek

I don’t believe that for a minute. His handlers don’t trust him with that responsibility. But someone has the codes and we don’t know who that is.
Nose pick on live camera at 9:51. LOL!
One of these days the demented fellow is going to take off his pants on stage. That’ll be the end.
Of course he’s ‘just fine’.....Joe was trying to entertain the King of Jordan with an impression of Admiral Stockdale.
Also reminded of the late Merovingian monarchs, “Les rois faineants”, who were ineffectual figureheads while the real power was exercised by the mayors of the palace, the most famous being Charles Martel.
Exactly.
Back in the 70’s-80’s when i was a mere lad, russia had a slew of old white guys as temporary rulers. They were so old it was only a matter of time before they dropped from the mortal coil…
One of the left over apple boxes from Robert Reich being there. He needed two, I think…
No matter where the take Biden he always end up looking like the drunk mouse in a maze.
I rate The Mooch at 70% getting Dems nomination to save America from Trump. Mooch is the only one who can do this. Beat Trump. At the Dems convention, she will be drafted and dragooned into running for the Dems version of National Salvation. Biden, Kamala, Newsom will all lose vs Trump. The Dems kingmakers and billionaire donors know this.
Newsom is very hair gelled cute for the lady voters. Gays too. But he turned California's large cities into radioactive zones. He cannot overcome this baggage. California is still an agricultural super-power. But the national voters don't get this.

She has no real grasp of the issues and the politics of this game because she's a slacker just enjoying all the perks and hasn't been very involved anyway. That's the way it's gonna’ stay I think. Ultra rich, self indulged millionaires don't really appeal much to the hoodrats and POC who're looking for a something besides the same old thing. I guess if they want a real phony for a president she'd do the trick for 'em, though.
The Trump train is real and gaining steam and picking up a lot of those disillusioned voters who have seen the low level the dems will stoop to steal elections. The dems only hope is to derail Trump's campaign by AMN. Go MAGA
