Joe Biden attended a trilateral meeting at Camp David, Friday, with Prime Minister Fumio Kishhida of Japan and President Yoon Suk Yeol of Korea. They held a press conference together after the meeting.
Even by Joe Biden’s standards, it was a complete mess.
He looked terrible as he “politely”, told the members of the media to leave. He then smirked as his handlers urged them to leave.

In the past, we’ve discussed Biden’s confusion during similar events. Now he has given up all pretenses and is reading straight from notes, even though he is having difficulty. He sounded as if he didn’t know what he was saying.

He seemed to be completely lost as to who should go next.

How can anyone see that and be confident in their leader? That this is the person who represents us to the rest of the world? He is supposed to be the world’s leader, but he cannot do anything without direction and help.
Biden was supposed to be yielding to the President of the Republic of Korea, but he did not seem to understand this. He also didn’t know the right title for Prime Minister Kishida, who he just met. The announcer said that he was the “Prime Minister” of Japan, and Biden, on the hot microphone, tried to correct him, incorrectly, by saying “President.”

BIDEN: “President.”
No, that’s Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. pic.twitter.com/xyZcmoliBX

Kishida smiled and tried not to be offended, but God only knows what was going through his mind. Who knows what the meeting behind the scenes must have been like if this is all we see?
This clip is truly shameful. Joe Biden attacked the “America First” policies of former President Donald Trump in front of foreign leaders.

Biden believes that putting America first is bad. He wouldn’t do it. What kind of leader can he be when he makes such comments? Biden defied logic when he tried to argue that this makes us “weaker and not stronger.” In so many of his acts, he shows that America does not come first to him. He falsely claimed Trump had “walked away” from the world.
Donald Trump, for instance, was responsible for historic agreements on peace in the Middle East; he has never left the world. As an American leader, he prioritized American interests as he should. Bidien does not understand that this is part of his job. People wonder why everything has gone to hell in a basket under Joe Biden. Here’s a major reason.
He refused to comment, of course, on the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate his son Hunter.

Biden ended with another moment of confusion. As he began to leave the podium, he forgot to remove his earpiece, and it fell out because it was still attached to the podium. He walked off the podium without a thought for the other two leaders who were still standing.

Biden has already booked it, without a glance back, from the two other leaders.
It was embarrassing and I’m sure the other leaders are aware of it. This is why the bad actors around the globe have become more confident.
Biden still went on a vacation at least in part to Lake Tahoe after the summit on Friday. He is supposed to be in Hawaii Monday to assess the damage caused by the Maui fire. It’s still too early to send him because they are still looking for people. I hope that he does not impede their search. He’s being sent because his “no comments” response was so poor; they are trying to clean up that. They don’t want him to say anything other than offer assistance. There is no need for more “no-empathy” Biden.
