President Joe Biden welcomed French President Emmanuel Macron to the White House on Thursday, as part of an official state visit.
But when it came time to shake Macron’s hand, the president awkwardly gripped it and held it firmly for 42 seconds as the French leader stood awkwardly near the podium.
“The temperature may be a little chilly on this December night – day, but our hearts are warm as we welcome such close friends to the White House,” Biden said during the arrival ceremony outdoors at the White House.

What a sick SOB. He thought Emmanuel was Jill.

Well, FJB couldn’t get close enough for a quick hair-sniff, so he had to settle for holding hands with Macron. (Even a president* needs to satisfy his desperate cravings, y’know.)

“ close enough for a quick hair-sniff”
Don’t be ridiculous, though Macron may be French, he doesn’t identify as a 6 year old girl

Thanks for the correction. FJB has a very specific uncontrollable craving that I failed to consider.

Macron should be happy Biden didn’t try to suck on his fingers.

Joe could have pulled Macron close and sniffed his hair for 2 minutes and the US media would tell the morons here that Joe is making friends on the world stage.

Did some leave “let go of hand” off the Presidential action checklist?

That’s another behavior my Dad used to do in his last year as he was dying of Alheimer’s. Handshakes didn’t end until you detached yourself. I was told by his medical care people that he just wanted to hold hands because he thought he was a kid and much younger than me at that point.
He’s sick, but he can’t help it.

Oh my goodness. Old Joe is making the entire world uncomfortable! The look on the Frenchman’s face reminds me of me the last time I was stuck with some horny old senile man. They have a grip, Ya’ll!!

Joe may have been signalling he is a hostage, kept captive against his will.

It is no secret that Emmanuel Macron and Joe Biden love each other.... as in homosexual love.
