US President Joe Biden has suffered another embarrassing gaffe at the start of a highly-anticipated press conference referring to “Vice President Trump” amid growing calls for him to drop out of the election. Biden, 81, spoke in Washington DC at a NATO summit on Thursday, about 7.30pm local time, where he quickly mixed-up Vice President Kamala Harris with political rival, Donald Trump.
Biden defends candidacy despite another epic gaffe. Biden was asked by Reuters reporter Jeff Mason: “What concerns do you have about Vice President Harris’s ability to beat Donald Trump? If she were at the top of the ticket?” “Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be Vice President, but I think she was not qualified to be president,” Biden said to reporters at the press conference.
