President Joe Biden just keeps on making us proud.
Speaking virtually with General Motors CEO Mary Barra on Thursday during a roundtable with business and labor leaders to promote the Democrats’ “Inflation Reduction Act,” Biden referred to himself as “vice president.”
Although he immediately caught his error, the damage had been done.
“I’ve spoken to the chairwoman about the possibility of my being able to buy one of those Corvettes that are electric vehicles that — you know, when they come out. And I’m not going to be able to do it because I can’t drive a vehicle while I’m vice president,” Biden said.
He quickly added, “While I’m president, any more than I could when I was vice president.”
Some might say we should cut the president some slack because of his recent COVID-19 diagnosis — and had this been an isolated incident, they would be right. But this is far from the first time he’s gotten his own job title, or those of others, wrong.
Speaking to South Carolina primary voters in February 2020, he said, “My name is Joe Biden. I’m a Democratic candidate for the United States Senate.”
He did not correct himself.
