Netizens express embarrassment at confused Joe Biden being escorted off stage by Barack Obama at an event in Los Angeles.
In a widely shared video, Joe Biden appeared to freeze up on stage at a Los Angeles fundraiser, and former president Barack Obama was seen helping him off. The altercation happened following Biden and Obama’s 45-minute appearance at the Peacock Theatre for a late-night chat with Jimmy Kimmel.
The men can be seen in the footage standing for applause at the star-studded event. Biden seemed to fix his gaze on the audience for ten seconds or more before Obama walked him off the stage and grabbed his wrist. The New York Post reports that the Biden campaign was able to raise almost $30 million at the event. At the occasion were famous people including Barbra Streisand, Julia Roberts, and George Clooney.
“There is no way that this is the head of the free world.”
“No offence… But I’ll never understand why old folks, and I mean rich old men and women just can’t leave politics alone and simply go on about their lives and enjoy EVERY bit of it until the last day,” wrote one of the many comments on the above video that British broadcaster Piers Morgan shared on social media. Too wealthy to be making themselves look bad on national television like this. One person remarked, “Clearly President Obama seems to have stepped in and taken command,” while another said, “They’re simply going to carry on pretending that it’s not happening and continue promoting Biden as “Sharp, dynamic, and full of vigour.”
“Why does Obama appear to be dragging out Biden as some elderly statesman to smile and wave at the crowd? One user said, “This cannot possibly be the leader of the free world,” and another commented, “It’s hard not to feel sorry for Biden.” The elderly boy has to be taken care of and removed from the spotlight by someone. A user said, “It’s so embarrassing that they have allowed this to continue.”
Some people, meanwhile, expressed sympathy for Biden’s poor performance. Would you send him shopping with a list to the nearby stores and expect him to return home if he were your father? It is inhumane. One commenter said, “They are embarrassing him by letting this continue. “I’m sure mainstream media will cry about “camera angles” and “framing” again,” another person commented. Elder abuse is something that must be acknowledged.
In fact, one user went so far as to say he thought the incident was being exaggerated and that Biden had not actually frozen up. “I was present there. In the front row, I witnessed three young people yelling at President Biden. @President Biden did not clam up when trying to listen. Seemingly prepared to reply, Now incorrect news is spreading. Sharing my perspective,” the user wrote.
