Once more, Joe Biden finds himself under the glaring public eye, and not for the right reasons. In a recent interview, the President of the United States made another gaffe that grabbed headlines. He referred to himself as the “first black woman to serve with a black president.” This verbal misstep happened during an Independence Day media event, where he was trying to regain voter confidence after a less than stellar debate performance.
Biden was in conversation with Andrea Lawful-Sanders, who must have been taken aback when Biden made this strange statement. He seemed to mix up his roles and identities in a sentence that turned into a tangled mess. “By the way, I’m proud to be, as I said, the first vice president, first black woman, to serve with a black president,” he stated.
I can’t believe this is real.
CNN is now airing humiliating Biden clips they once dismissed as “cheap fakes.”
Imagine being a CNN viewer when your favorite host calls Biden “not coherent.”

It appears that Biden was attempting to point out his groundbreaking selections such as Kamala Harris, the first Black woman vice president, and Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. However, true to form, Biden’s message ended up lost in a labyrinth of words more intricate than a political thriller plot.
This isn’t Biden’s first brush with verbal blunders. Remember his recent claim: “I was the first president that got elected statewide in the state of Delaware when I was a kid”? This statement is perplexing given that Biden never held the office of Delaware’s governor and certainly wasn’t elected president in his youth.
The timing of Biden’s latest gaffe is far from ideal. Following an unimpressive debate performance where he seemed less like an experienced politician and more like a deer in headlights, this slip-up only heightened concerns about his age and mental acuity. Critics have been quick to capitalize on these moments, questioning Biden’s fitness to lead.
Adding to the controversy, Biden’s campaign spokesperson, Ammar Moussa, brushed off the media uproar, asserting that the president’s speech style is normal for him and has been throughout his career. “What are we even doing anymore?” Moussa remarked, attempting to downplay the growing unease around Biden’s suitability for another term.
As the election draws near, Biden’s ability to navigate public events without such errors will be closely watched. With adversaries ready to exploit every mistake, the stakes are extremely high. For now, however, his latest gaffe provides material for comedic relief and late-night talk shows.
In conclusion, as Biden continues his campaign journey, one fact remains evident: In the unpredictable realm of politics, sometimes the most significant headlines are born from the smallest blunders.
