President Joe Biden traveled to a tornado-ravaged Mississippi community on Friday, and he couldn’t even be bothered to get the town’s name correct.
After he twice referred to the small city of Rolling Fork as “Rolling Stone,” he was finally corrected by a local who had apparently grown frustrated with the disrespect.
On March 24, an EF4 tornado killed 26 people and uprooted the lives of countless others. Rolling Fork was absolutely devastated by the twister.
Friday, the gaffe machine that is the country’s 46th president showed up to town and added insult to injury.
“We’re not just here for today,” Biden said as he assured town residents the federal government will be there for them. “We are focused now on making sure you got a place to sleep, food to eat, helping you rebuild your lives in Rolling Stone.”
Later, he again mixed up the name of the town when he said, “The town of Rolling Stone will be back, and we’ll be with you every step of the way.”
Someone in the crowd finally corrected him.
