US President Joe Biden told reporters on Tuesday that he was heading up to New York City the following day and “doing 9/11”
His latest gaffe came the day before the 23rd anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.
The Mail Online reports: The gaffe-prone 81-year-old was heading to Marine One on the White House lawn when he made the comments just one day before the 23rd anniversary of the terror attacks.
‘I’m going up to my granddaughter’s birthday in New York,’ Biden began. ‘Then we’re gonna watch the debate, then tomorrow I’m doing 9/11.’
The president’s remark concerning the September 11, 2001 attacks on America caused social media users to express shock and amusement at his poor choice of wording.
On social media platform X, one person commented: ‘Biden’s slip-ups are endless. You’d think someone would double-check his scripts by now.’
Another posted: ‘Yup… He done’, while someone added: ‘Gotta be honest until I saw that ‘tomorrow I’m doing 9/11′ clip just now I kind of forget Joe Biden was even alive.’
A Trump campaign associated X account shared the clip, saying: ‘This is the humiliating cognitive decline Kamala Harris COVERED UP.’
It is the latest in a long line of blunders for the commander in chief who stepped down from his reelection race after a disastrous debate performance against Trump.
Just days before his shock announcement, he had even referred to Vice President Harris as Donald Trump.
