While delivering remarks in South Carolina over the weekend, President Biden went off on Donald Trump in a mostly unintelligible rant — but one moment in particular caught fire on social media.
At one point, President Biden referred to Donald Trump as the “sitting president.” Whoops.
“You’re the reason I am president,” Biden, 81, told the crowd of Democratic leaders as he touted his record of “promises made and promises kept.”
“You’re the reason Donald Trump is a loser,” he said of Trump.
But Biden quickly fell into gaffe territory while saying “American consumers are facing real confidence in the economy we’re building.”
“Let me tell you who else is noticing that: Donald Trump,” Biden said before he stumbled on his words.
“Did you see what he recently said about … he wants to, he wants to see the economy crash this year? A sitting president,” he said without correcting himself.
“As they say in my faith, bless me father for, I mean, come on, man,” Biden continued.
