Joe Biden It has once again confused situations in public, an attitude that began as a false step with funny overtones and which with the addition of new “pifications” has begun to worry public opinion in the United States.
This Wednesday, during an election event in Hallandale Beach, the president of the United States confused the war in Iraq with the current Russian invasion of Ukraine. To make matters worse, it wasn’t the first time he had mixed war conflicts and when he wanted to correct himself, he again made a mistake he had already fallen into.
“Inflation is a global problem right now because of the Iraq war and the impact on oil and what Russia is doing,” Biden raised during his speech in the state of Florida.
Noticing his mistake, he immediately corrected himself: “Excuse me, the war in Ukraine.”
The second setback came when tried to prove an explanation to its decay. He said he was thinking of Iraq because he his son died in that conflict.
But a few weeks ago, when he made a similar comment, public opinion in the United States noted that the young man actually died of cancer years later, when he was already back in the country.
Biden, 79, is the oldest president in US history. The constant mistakes of him in public have ignited the alarms in the PD, who is already thinking about the presidential elections of 2024 and the convenience or otherwise of the current president competing for a second term.
Other mistakes by Joe Biden
The president’s misleading comments are already a recurring theme in the United States. Less than a month ago, in the middle of a speech to an official act, he had supported him his son died in Iraq. However, although he was a war veteran, Beau died years later of cancer.
The comment came with the announcement of the creation of a national monument in the mountains of Colorado, broadcast to millions of people around the world.
The event took place at Camp Hale, home to the United States Army’s 10th Mountain Division. It was that wartime reference and reminder of his participation in World War II that triggered the summoning of his son.
“Soldiers from this division climbed an 1,800-foot mountain at night, took the Germans by surprise, captured key positions and broke through their defensive lines at a turning point in the war,” he said of the global conflict.
“Imagine, I say this honestly, I say this as the father of a man who received the Bronze Star, the medal for excellence in service, and he lost his life in Iraq… Imagine the courage, the audacity and the sacrifice that all of them have made “, he concluded, with words that have not gone unnoticed.
Beau Biden served in the Delaware Army and National Guard from 2003 to 2015. He traveled to Iraq in 2008 and returned to the United States a year later.
Months later he started having health problems and finally, in 2013, he was diagnosed with brain cancer (glioblastoma). He died in May 2015, aged 46, in Bethesda, Maryland, where he was hospitalized.
In addition, he served as Attorney General of Delaware from 2007 to 2015.
According to White House statements to the Washington Examiner, Biden has repeatedly linked Beau’s illness to his stay in Iraqwhere he spent seven months on the battlefield.
The previous mistake occurred at the end of September, at the close of a conference on “Hunger, food and health” at the White House.
This time, Biden took the microphone to close the meeting. “Is Jackie here?”, asked at the time of thanks. Jackie Walorski was a food and health congresswoman. But Jackie died on August 3rdat the age of 58, in a car accident.
After his death, Joe and Jill Biden also sent their condolences to Walorski’s family.
“Jill and I are shocked and saddened by the death in an accident of Congresswoman Jackie Walorski of Indiana,” they said in August, a month and a half before the mistake in the presidential address.
