Who are you again?

President Biden tripped over British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s title during their White House meeting Thursday — referring to the UK pol as “Mr. President.”

The 80-year-old Biden’s gaffe came almost immediately after the two leaders sat down in the Oval Office ahead of their wide-ranging talks.

“Well, Mr. President,” Biden started to say before abruptly correcting himself. “Mr. President? I just demoted you.”

As Sunak, 43, laughed off the slip-up, Biden continued: “Mr. Prime Minister, it’s great to have you back.”

Biden thought he was a 7-11 clerk.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Biden called him Karnak the Magnificent.

Yeah, he’s more than ready and able to fulfill another four-year term as POTUS after he’s done with the current one.

Picture of Trump did this...

"Trump's cognitive function has deteriorated to such an extent that he wasn't able to remember who was visiting him at the White House today; we can tell you that his guest was none other than the British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak."

“Well, Mr. President,” Biden started to say before abruptly correcting himself.”

The correction had to have been cued to him in some form. Earpiece, flash card, anal beads..or whatever.

Just how long does America continue with this fool as our Head of State. It’s criminal to keep him (and his Doctor wife) living in our White House. I know that our present VP is a total jerk, but we’re stuck. Why don’t they both resign and go to our present Speaker of the House McCarthy as the next in line and stop this crap?

He was still wrong, it’s not “Mr. Prime Minister”, the correct form of address for the UK PM it is simply “Prime Minister”.

.....”Doctor” Jill is not a phycisian although she insists on being addressed as “Doctor” Jill Biden...I would not trust her to put a Band-Aid on my cut finger....

And they made a laughingstock of Dan Quayle for misspelling a word.

But he was a Republican, so fair game.

Aides shouldn’t let him out of the guarded bedroom by himself.

Unless the Dems are going ahead with their plan of Biden removal.

Biden: Sorry I called you President. Britain is one of my favorite states.
