Confused Biden Mistakes Sports Team for Notorious Paramilitary on Ireland TourPeter Caddle 13 Apr 2023
A confused Joe Biden has mistaken a national sports team with a notorious paramilitary group while on his grand tour of Ireland.
Gaff-prone American President Joe Biden has once again provoked confusion and laughs after he conflated a national sports team with a notorious 20th-century paramilitary group.
The comments came late on the commander-in-chief’s second day of touring Ireland, with Biden meeting with extended family members still resident on the island.
According to a report by POLITICO, Biden’s slip-up originated from an attempt to praise one of these extended relations, that of famous Irish rugby player Rob Kearney, who during his time playing for the country at an international level, helped beat New Zealand’s legendary national team, the “All Blacks”.
However, while attempting to play up his distant cousin’s achievements, Biden claimed that Kearney had not in fact beaten the All Blacks, but the notorious 20th-century British paramilitary organisation known as the “black and tans”.
