US President Joe Biden is facing criticism after another gaffe that referenced his Irish heritage.

Speaking on St Patrick's Day, the President, whose great-great-grandfather was born in Co Mayo, was captured on video making a rather unfortunate remark given the day that was in it.

As he addressed attendees of a St Patrick's Day reception in the White House, Mr Biden is heard saying: "I may be Irish, but I'm not stupid."

He must have been thinking about Robert Frances O’Rourke who is running for governor of Texas.

I’ve never met an Irishman I’ve not liked.
I’ve never met a Biden that I have.

He didn’t call Irish people stupid. He implied that they are stupid.

part of U2 were involved with the MI song. I was looking around today to see what the original composer was paid for that song...one of the most recognizable tunes from television.

62.5% Irish and the rest English. Joe’s mother was Irish.

He is stupid, Irish or not…and his supporters are bunched on the left side of the IQ Bell Curve.

“Well, he CERTAINLY knows stupid!”

Me neither. He flew with him when Brandon was VP so they could double-team in their graft.
