Biden accidentally drops, then awkwardly picks up challenge coin

He’s “Butterfingers” Biden.

The president accidentally dropped and then had to chase a challenge coin as it rolled away from him Monday during an awkward exchange with a senior military officer.

The oldest-ever president had to bend down to retrieve the coin after a failed handoff with US Air Force Col. Ethan P. Hinkins, whom Biden greeted before meeting with a group of Minnesota lawmakers at Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.

Biden has given out several presidential coins during his administration, including to Pope Francis and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

“I know my son would want me to give this to you, because on the back of it I have the state of Delaware and the 261st [Army] unit my son served with,” the president told the pontiff during an October 2021 visit to the Vatican.

This asswipe just caused my 5 minute trip from my daughter’s school to my home to be 45 minutes because all of the streets to get to my house were blocked off thanks to this visit. He’s in Blaine supposedly, and all connecting streets to the main thoroughfare are blocked because he might come through moundsview to get to the airport! Why are they not taking the freeway?!!!!

I had to drive almost 10 miles west and then several miles north, then back 10 miles east to get to somewhere that was 1/4 mile east of where I started.

Just think, the Presidency is the closet thing America has to a King. Biden thinks you should be happy to await his arrival.

Biden was always going to take some other guy behind the wall and beat the tar out of him. But he can’t even handle a coin. Just like he was the football “star” at University of Delaware, not!

Just more governmental ineptitude on full display from the lowliest city to the fed gov. They don’t care what we think and they brazenly admit it.

“...261st [Army] unit my son served with,”


Was this the son who died in Iraq?

Loss of manual dexterity and fine motor skills are one of the major indicators of cognitive decline.

This man is not well and the 25A should be invoked immediately.

President George Bush was the best at handing out challenge coins. He would show up at airports when soldiers were returning from deployment and shake every soldiers hand, palming a challenege coin between each one. I guess he had the magicians ability to palm several, not even reaching back for more from his aide. Really slick.

Blame belongs to Wilson some hundred plus change years ago.

SS has a lot of protocols in routes/protections. In my opinion, a President should have protection but not to extreme levels nowadays. Constitution provides an enumerated line of “succession” so...who gives a crap if some winner of a popularity contest goes down/gets sick/or whatever. Should keep them on their toes about finessing the state of the nation and keeping their health as they live under the Grace of God.

First President went on horseback riding INTO danger to stop a rebellion for crying out loud. Far cry from the pansies we have now that interrupts the daily lives of their suppose masters/citizens. They are public SERVANTS after all.

Sorry, should be first President under the current ratified Constitution and how he responded to the Whiskey Rebellion (For those in Rio Linda, may Rush live on) mainly traveled in a carriage though, but still mounted his horse to face the wanna-be “French” revolutionist (Had makeshift guillotines and all that stuff to try and scare Washington).

And Atlanta, Georgia gets cackling Harris on Thursday.

When I used to make travel arrangements for my boss, I learned to check to make sure there were no “dignitaries” flying into Atlanta/Hartsfield airport that day. That’s a must because it can add two hours to your travel time if a President or other VIP is visiting your state.
