President Joe Biden is facing mockery after he struggled through reading a poem.

During a National Medals of Arts and National Humanities Medals ceremony, Biden chose to read a poem written for former President Barack Obama’s second inauguration. 

“And always one moon like a silent drum tapping at every rooftop and every window on every – in –  of every county – country,” he began, adding, “Let me start this over again.”

Turning to Richard Blanco, the poem’s author, Biden said, “I’m getting so intimidated by you being here.”

He began to read again, “And always one moon like a silent drum tapping on every rooftop and every window, of one country — county — county — all of us facing the stars; hope, a new constellation waiting for us to map it, waiting for us to name it together.”
