Biden ‘Ruined’ NATO Summit with Unforgivable Gaffe, European Officials Say
Daily Fetched ^ | JULY 12, 2024 | Jason Walsh

Joe Biden‘s embarrassing gaffe where he called Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelensky “President Putin” at the highly anticipated NATO summit, has been slammed by European Officials, who say it undid all their hard work.

As we reported on Friday, Biden made two major blunders, the first referring to Ukrainian President Zelensky as “President Putin” and later calling Kamala Harris “Vice President Trump.”

Here’s a recap:

VIDEOS AT LINK...............

During the speech, Biden falsely claimed that Trump praised Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and wanted to abandon NATO.

Democrats and the media have finally acknowledged Biden’s cognitive decline as pressure mounts for him to step down.

But Biden hit the final nail in the coffin of his campaign by mistaking Zelensky for his arch-enemy.

“It was awful,” one diplomatic source told the Telegraph.

While Biden’s campaign called the gaffe nothing but a “slip-up,'” others were not so forgiving.

“It’s taken the focus away from what has been a great summit for us,” one diplomat said.

“The Americans had put in months of groundwork into preventing another ‘Vilnius moment’,” another official said.

Even Barack Obama is now privately expressing his concerns that Biden cannot defeat Trump, CNN reported.

Obama’s worries are “one of the worst kept secrets in Washington,” the outlet noted.

As we reported on Thursday, Obama likely had a central role in actor George Clooney’s New York op-ed throwing Biden under a bus.

Europe loves seeing this chomo destroy, humiliate, and weaken American. But now that war is at their doorstep reality ‘may’ be settling in that America can’t or won’t bail them out. Then again France and UK just voted in straight up commies so who knows.

Hell, I dislike Joe Biden, but it was an 80 year old senile fool who called the foreigner by the wrong name. How could that POSSIBLY undo all their “hard work”.

Z not going to take the cash now? Are Denmark and Estonia going to remove their mighty armies from the alliance?

Euro-idiots.

You mean nothing is unforgivable when it comes to Democrats wanting to hold on to power.

Biden and his entourage of clowns caused this war.

He should go down in history for what he did in Afghanistan and Ukraine.

Disasters caused by bad leadership, or a lack of it.

At this point even the MSM which has been protecting him is coming out and stating what was obvious already in 2019.

I agree; I have no use for Biden but his using one name instead of another hardly “ruined” anybody’s day or event. The Europeans need to go home and take care of their own backyard.

America is in decline when our own citizens start setting the bar so low as to what constitutes the skill set for being POTUS.

Even here on FR, we get posters saying “I dislike Biden but?” Really sad how far we have fallen.
