President Joe Biden once again faced off against his formidable foe, the teleprompter, to disastrous results.
Biden was speaking to world leaders at a United Nations climate conference in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, on Friday when he fumbled over a simple phrase that he was unable to read coherently.
Observe:
Itās almost as painful to watch as it must have been for Biden to flub this apparent tongue-twister.
Biden is the oldest president in the nationās history, and has looked every bit the part from the moment he took office.
In fact, it was during his incredibly low-key pandemic-era presidential campaign that the public was first made starkly aware that something was seriously amiss. It was a running joke during the 2020 campaign that Biden was being holed away in his basement by campaign handlers.

Yet it was from the basement that the aging career politician was seen apparently using a teleprompter for what was supposed to be a casual interview.
Once he assumed office, Bidenās handlers deployed the teleprompterĀ as is common for formal speeches, yet time and time again, he faced off against this nemesis and⦠lost.
What is particularly bad about this weekās flub is that, not for the first time, Bidenās struggles with rather simple verbiage took place on the world stage as part of the presidentās attempt to make our country look good before critical international eyes.
One imagines that failed.
As The New York Times reported, Biden had been in the middle of trying to explain to world leaders that the U.S. can āturbocharge the emerging global clean energy economy.ā Attendees of the event appear to have been unconvinced on this point.
Biden assured delegates that āweāre proving that good climate policy is good economic policy,ā but the Times noted that his comments ādid not satisfyā some in the audience āwho were looking to hear specifics, especially on commitments to poorer countries that are struggling with damage from climate change, but have done little to cause it.ā
Now, if youāre like me, youāre probably thinking of 15 tangents on the topic of the Biden administrationās climate agenda and the āgreenā policymaking that threatens to undo the global economy as we know it.
So just consider that Biden is out there stumping for a globalist āgreenā agenda that is already terrible on its own, and heās making our nation look terrible while doing it.
Just as āclimate colonialismā and modern statism are leading to the erosion of national sovereignty, independence and liberty around the world, we have a president who appears to be eroding right before our eyes on the world stage.
Itās like watching a free America, and a free world, fade away. How fitting.
