People assigned to handle damage control for Joe Biden have plenty of job security. The blunders and gaffes through the first years of his presidency took time to build up, but now it’s like he is on a fixed schedule to screw up.
More people are noticing Biden’s Blunders than years before. His gaffes raise concerns that are fueled by his age, tendency to lose focus of thought while speaking, and the various times he was caught on camera tripping or falling.
Biden recently cited a personal conversation with a dead man. The man from the past that Biden brought to mind has been dead for decades. Biden even initially mixed up the dead leader’s country.
From The Daily Wire:
“I sat down and I said, ‘America’s back’ and Mitterrand from Germany — I mean from France looked at me and said, ‘You know why — how long you back for?’”
WATCH: Joe Biden says he recently met with “Mitterand from Germany.”

Biden was recalling François Mitterrand, the former president of France, who has been dead since 1996. Biden stated he recently sat down with him for a discussion.
Biden seemingly talking to dead people is concerning as he moves along in the primary elections. Where was Biden when he was talking to a dead foreign leader? Biden was speaking in Las Vegas ahead of the Nevada primary when he blurted out his supposed recent conversation with Mitterrand.
The reality was that Biden was reflecting on a June 2021 G-7 meeting in the United Kingdom and a gathering of NATO leaders. The topic of conversation at the time covered the U.S. Capitol breach on Jan. 6. Emmanuel Macron was president of France in 2021.
Apparently, this isn’t the first time Biden switched the names of the French presidents. Biden blurted out a similar recollection of the story, including the same Mitterrand blunder, in 2022.
But the official presidential record won’t reflect the blunders. In each case, the White House transcripts of Biden’s comments showed Mitterrand’s name crossed out and replaced with Macron. That’s how they handle his blunders internally.
Is Biden forgetful, mentally deteriorating, or just being exposed as the lackluster political prop he’s always been? Whatever the reason, Biden continued to hurt his reputation and relevancy this week by reflecting on a dead person from decades ago.
Key Takeaways:
- Biden claimed he recently met with the president of France who has been dead for decades.
- The Biden blunder also at first confused what country the French president was leading.
- People are concerned about the frequency of Biden’s blunders and his ability to govern.
