It’s getting worse.
After introducing King Abdullah II of Jordan on Monday, President Biden wandered around aimlessly behind him on stage before finally settling on a place to stand.
The optics of the moment are terrible in the wake of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s damning report on Biden’s mishandling of classified documents, in which Hur called Biden an “elderly man with a poor memory” and decided not to recommend charges based on Biden being an old man.
From The New York Post:
As Abdullah prepared to deliver his speech, the president shuffled around behind him and the podium, gazing down at the floor as if looking for a mark indicating the proper place for him to stand.
Biden waffled between two spots before settling on what was initially his first choice, to Abdullah’s left and in front of the Jordanian flag.
The president’s indecision appeared to throw off the king, who at one point looked over his left shoulder expecting to see Biden, who wasn’t there.
