Road Island is neither a road nor an island.

The full name is "Rhode Island and Providence Plantations"

I don't think it's a plantation (in the traditional sense) either.

After Joe visits the state of Road Island, is he going to visit the state of New England?

Presumably, Biden knows that U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, for whom he is expected to campaign, is a U.S. senator from the state of Rhode Island, not Road Island, wherever that is.

I see no historical evidence to support that presumption.

This is why Joe wants to take the ferry.....less traffic while you’re driving on the ferry.

Actually it's the "State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations" and a 2010 state constitutional amendment to change it failed to pass. source

Old Joe put one of those Garmin navigation systems in his car. Unfortunately, he tried to plug it in to the cup holder and was last seen driving in circles in a Walmart parking lot.
