Joe’s having a rough week.
During remarks at an event this week for the holiday of Diwali, the festival of lights in Hinduism, Jainism and Sikhism, Biden took a moment to recognize Kamala Harris’ recent birthday —only he called her “President.”
“I know we’ll celebrating Diwali, but a few year – days ago, it was also Kamala’s birthday. She turned 30,” Biden said jokingly.
“And happy birthday to a great president. We know your mom is always with you,” Biden said.

Biden turns 80 next month and is already the oldest sitting President in the history of the United States. His mental fitness has repeatedly been called into question as his gaffes seem to be more and more frequent these days. Biden also said during a recent interview with MSNBC that he could “drop dead tomorrow.”
“You know, I, could be, I’m a great respecter of fate,” Biden told interviewer Jonathan Capehart. “I could get a disease tomorrow, I could, you know, drop dead tomorrow. But I, you know, in terms of my energy level, in terms of how much I’m able to do, I think people should look and say, ‘is he, is he still have the same passion for what he’s doing? And if they think I do, and I can do it, then that’s fine.”
