Biden recounted a conversation with “Helmut Kohl” during the 2021 summit in the U.K., where he was asked about his potential response if people stormed the British Parliament to prevent the election of a prime minister. This gaffe follows another from his Nevada event on Sunday, where he confused François Mitterrand for French President Emmanuel Macron. (Source: Benzinga)

Biden’s verbal missteps have been a recurring issue. In June 2023, he renamed his signature initiative ‘Build Back Better’ at an environmental event, igniting a debate about his age. Concerns about his age are prevalent among voters and may influence the upcoming elections.
