Biden calls Zelensky 'President Putin': Joe makes huge gaffe just before his 'big boy' press conference
UK Daily Mail ^ | 07/11/2024 | Emily Goodin

President Joe Biden introduced Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as 'President Putin' in a brutal gaffe at the NATO summit with his political future hanging by a thread.

The 81-year-old facing mounting calls to drop out of the presidential race said: 'Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin.'

The major flub in front of world leaders sparked gasps and those in the room had to shout the correct name.

'No, we're going to beat Putin,' Biden said.

His gaffe came in front of world allies who had joined him for the announcement and shortly before his make-or-break press conference, where his performance will determine whether he remains the Democratic nominee for president.

Biden had announced a new $225 million aid package for Ukraine, including a Patriot missile system to bolster its air defenses against the Russian airstrikes when he made his gaffe.

Behind the scenes at NATO summit, world leaders have been concerned about Biden's cognitive decline.

One senior diplomat reportedly said that politicians from around the globe fear he could fall and are 'worried if he knows which direction he is going'.

If Zelensky was really on top of his game, he would’ve said thank you President Trump.

Biden read from a Teleprompter for four minutes. We all know that Biden can still read with vigor.

As soon as he was off teleprompter he introduced Zelensky as “President Putin”. why isn’t this being broadcast on cspan , Fox News or CNN.

My gut says they will walk him off the stage. I think the violence associated with dementia will show through.

And now Biden is an hour and a half late at his next scheduled appearance at yet another NATO ceremony.

The handlers must be furiously trying to balance his drug dose, or had to send back to the White House for a fresh pair of pants.

Ought to be entertaining... it is past his “Lid Time” already.

KJP is now on scene, with Clyburn, so maybe it will start soon.

What if everybody stopped fighting because Biden made them forget what side they were on?

Pinocchio is moving his lips so he is lying and the drugs are making him cough.
I don’t think people care much about protecting Pinchhio’s commitment to Ukraine.
