Same story, same result.
For the third time this week, President Biden told an audience that he discussed the Jan, 6, 2021, riot at the US Capitol with European leaders who were actually dead at the time.
On Wednesday, Biden told Democratic donors in New York that he spoke about the riot with former German Chancellor Helmut Kohl, whose death pre-dates the event by nearly half a decade.
The shocking gaffe comes just days after the 81-year-old president confused French President Emmanuel Macron with the country’s ex-leader Francois Mitterrand — who died in 1996.
Biden made the blunder Wednesday in front of audiences at two separate fundraisers as he regaled donors with an anecdote about his first international trip as president – to the 2021 G-7 summit in Great Britain – after his 2020 election win over former President Donald Trump.
“I showed up … and I sat down and said, ‘America’s back,’ and [French President Emmanuel] Macron looked at me and said, ‘For how long?’ How long? Not a joke,” Biden recalled, according to a pool report of the president’s stop at the home of Maureen White, whose husband Steven Rattner manages billionaire former Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s fortune.
“Helmut Kohl said, ‘Joe, what would you think if you picked up the phone and picked up the paper tomorrow and learned in the London Times, on the front page, that 1,000 people stormed the Parliament, broke down the doors of the House of Commons and killed 2 bobbies in the process … trying to stop the election of a prime minister?’” he added.
Kohl, who served as the chancellor of Germany from 1982 to1998, died in 2017 – nearly four years before the 2021 G7 summit.

The man is a stupid, corrupt, lying dolt to begin with. Combine that with layers of dementia and reliance on his leftist handlers and we have a spiraling disaster.
They’ll refer to it afterwards, but nobody will make issue of it immediately when he does it.
And it has to be near constant for them to merely mention these “few” instances.
Not a joke: a fiction.
The latest predictions are that Biden will drop out by May.
The Democratic Nat’l Convention is in Aug. That gives them 3 months to get people used to their chosen candidate and a couple of months before people start voting.
He’s a bullshitter. It’s from spending all those years in the Senate of accomplishing nothing.
She is definitely going for the Edith Wilson trophy.
Ahhh he’s fine.
>snicker<
He accomplished making himself and his family a pile of tax-free loot... So there's that.
And Harris as well. At this rate he likely won’t last until the convention, let alone the end of his term.
Did Biden’s hopes for a second term end when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Forget it — he’s on a roll.
Dr jill is not a dr. She only has a cure for the size of your wallet. Smaller is better. These people are grifters.
I love that movie. Let’s put the bidens on double secret probation.
I don’t know about Newsome. It’s a little too obvious how screwed up CA is.
A few months ago, I would have said that Michelle wasn’t even a possibility, but now I’m thinking that Dems would vote for her knowing that she wouldn’t be making any important decisions & they’d be giving their savior Barack another 4 yrs.
Look...no matter who it is...they will be ruled by Obama and Hillary.
He talks to dead people….
FJB. His handlers and enablers are EVIL.
