President Joe Biden is facing mockery over a joke about why he chose Vice President Kamala Harris to be his running mate.
During an event at the White House on Monday, Biden joked, “My name’s Joe Biden. I work for Kamala Harris.”
“I asked her to be my vice president because I knew I needed somebody smarter than me,” he added.

It did not take long for reactions to roll in:
These comments won’t age well. He failed at finding someone smarter than him too. https://t.co/zSI6ernmle

He did need someone ‘smarter’, but a Joe Biden didn’t even get that right. 🙄 https://t.co/myDRmIJljT

Just on its own.
Disqualifies Biden for a disastrous 2nd term. https://t.co/lORRyWA07A
