Biden slipped up twice in 24 hours, confusing Iraq with Ukraine.
What is the standard for competency for presidents? At the very least, the ability to tell apart two major conflicts that affect the United States.
President Joe Biden slipped up twice in the last 24 hours by confusing the US war in Iraq with the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Speaking to reporters Wednesday on the South Lawn of the White House, Biden said that Russian President Vladimir Putin had been weakened by a shocking mutiny by a mercenary group that’s played a critical role in his war with Ukraine.
“He is clearly losing the war in Iraq,” Biden said of Putin, evidently meaning to refer to Ukraine. “He’s losing the war at home, and he has become a bit of a pariah around the world.”
At least he didn’t call Putin, George W. Bush.
Biden made a similar mistake while speaking to donors Tuesday evening at a campaign fundraiser in Chevy Chase, Maryland, about his efforts to galvanize US allies in support of Kyiv.
“If anybody told you — and my staff wasn’t so sure, either — that we’d be able to bring all of Europe together in the onslaught on Iraq and get NATO to be completely united, I think they would have told you it’s not likely,” the president said, again meaning to say Ukraine.
He also spoke about his “new best friend” being the “prime minister of a little country that’s now the largest in the world, China,” before correcting himself that he meant to say India.
Back in November, Biden also mixed up Iraq and Ukraine during a speech in Florida while defending his policies from accusations they have fueled inflation.
“Inflation is a worldwide problem right now because of a war in Iraq and the impact on oil, and what Russia is doing,” the president said.
He quickly caught the mistake. “I mean, excuse me, the war in Ukraine,” he said.
When the president can’t tell apart Ukraine and Iraq, it’s a major problem. Biden keeps flashing back to the Iraq War which defined the final phase of his Senate career and his vice presidency.
Even Bloomberg is forced to notice that Biden is unfit, not only because of corruption, but because his mind is untethered from the realities of the moment.
How long can this go on?
Walter Sieruk says
This is still further proof that the letter B.I.D.E.N. actually do really stand for “Biggest. Idiot. Democrats. Ever. Nominated.”
Walter Sieruk says
Joe Biden is America’s first vegetable brain zombie “president”
Biden is also the epitome of the term “puppet ruler.”
Demanded Biden is nothing more useful idiot , a stooge and a tool of others who are really in power ,hidden “behind the curtains” who use that puppet “president ” to achieve their sinister Red/Green agenda. .
David says
I thoroughly agree. An American president dancing on a string.
࿗Infidel࿘ says
The real mystery is who exactly is running this government? The next administration, be it Trump or DeSantis, should have a commission look into this, and give it a 2-3 year deadline to come up w/ the answer
commonsense says
From the article:
(Biden) also spoke about his “new best friend” being the “prime minister of a little country that’s now the largest in the world, China,” before correcting himself that he meant to say India.
Freudian slip.
FYI says
{Presidential music}{Pride flag with.US flag beneath it}
POTUS Biden:As commander in chief of the Rainbow Pride armies I wish to inform you that the Transjester division has just attacked Iran..i..mean ukraine..and the 101 airborne division has been deployed to Iraq ,,i mean Russia..to fight that killer Putin.
Walks off to right but door is locked.Shakes hands with ghost.
Imagine if there was a war on a Joe Biden was c-in-c.
Exactly
I am not laughing at anyone with dementia.But this is ridiculous!
Imagine what the militaries of Russia,China,Iran,North Korea are seeing.
America is so weak.
James Lincoln says
FYI,
Both strangely humorous – and beyond tragic.
Spiro says
I sure hope the 2020 election was stolen as some people say
Because I would hate to think this country is screwed up enough to actually elect the clown
commonsense says
Agree 100 per cent, Spiro. I’ve had the same thought in my head since the alleged 2020 election results, and can’t let lt go.
James Lincoln says
Spot on, Spiro.
I happen to be in the camp of a stolen 2020 election.
If I am wrong, the alternative is much worse – the majority of American voters voting for bedpan Biden.
somehistory says
And he has allowed so many to come across the Southern border, that LE is warning about another attack like 8/11
“Another 9/11:’ Law Enforcement Warns of Terrorists Coming into America Among Illegal Aliens”
“As reported by Just The News, a recent report by the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS) Office of the Inspector General (OIG), an incident occurred last year in which a terrorist was released into the United States by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shortly after his apprehension. The terrorist was then allowed to roam freely throughout the country for about two weeks before he was arrested again by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
After he was initially apprehended in April of 2022, the terror watchlist suspect was released “without providing information requested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Terrorist Screening Center (TSC) that would have confirmed the migrant was a positive match with the Terrorist Screening Data Set (Terrorist Watchlist),” according to the OIG report. He was finally arrested again on May 6th, but the arrest was delayed due to “challenges transferring documentation while planning to arrest the migrant and obtaining GPS data while conducting the arrest.”
……”Morgan added, the main objective of the Border Patrol now “is not to secure the border, your job is to process and release illegal aliens as fast as possible.”’

It really is a horrifying and scary sight to watch Biden, a man who is not capable, because of his demented condition, of doing the most menial of jobs, being in the position of President of the USA. His idiotic statements and his wandering around, lost and not knowing where to go, up on various stages, make him a laughing stock and the scum who run China and various other evil regimes must consider him to be a gift that just keeps on giving. I think that it was a disgrace that his backers even let Biden run for the Presidency because they must have known that his mind was shot to pieces and, for the good of the country, which is what should matter above all, he should not have been allowed to run
commonsense says
All his backers care about is power and control. They don’t give a damn if the country is destroyed.
tim gallagher says
You must be right, commonsense. Of course, they would no doubt say that they care about the country above all. But to have this demented moron, Biden, in the position of President shows that, as you say, they actually only care about power and control. I see Biden’s idiocy on display here in Australia on a couple of programs on Sky News, including him saying, repeatedly according to the hosts of the “Outsiders” program, that his son died in Iraq. I was wondering how the media let such bizarre crap go without getting stuck into him. I get that the left wing media would run a protection racket for him, but it seems as if they must just let the demented fool say any old thing and take the attitude that, “oh, well, that’s just this clown, this joke, biden, going on with complete bullshit again. Not to worry”. It is really bizarre.
James Lincoln says
Just wondering tim…
Does Sky News lean left or lean right?
tim gallagher says
Well, you know the answer. To me, James, as a conservative, I would, naturally enough, say that Sky News is sensibly conservative. Left wing people would say it is full of raving loony right wingers such as I am. It depends on where you stand in the political spectrum. Out here in Australia, there are endless news sources that lean to the left, and the far left wing ABC, our BBC, (Australian Broadcasting Corporation) which the poor taxpayer funds to the tune of $1 billion a year. I would not go near that outfit for any news and haven’t for over 20 years. Their bullshit would annoy me too much. I mainly watch two programs on Sky News, the Peta Credlin show during the week, and then on Sunday morning the Outsiders program because I like all three hosts, Rowan Dean, who is often very funny and tears the woke agenda to pieces, Rita Panahi and James Morrow. My left wing siblings and friends tend to get their bullshit views from the ABC. I imagine, James, that you would avoid some news sources in the USA because, if you are like me, they would annoy you too much. Life is too short to waste on their bullshit I feel.
James Lincoln says
tim,
Much thanks for your reply – and added info.
Very best wishes always.
Westman says
Biden is more like a punch-drunk fighter with a deficient manager, trotted out for a public showing yet never fighting again. Apparently a ham sandwich not only can be indicted, it can also run for President of the US.
The poor man is literally not himself and could never finish another term. The panicked Dems must figure out how to keep both he and Harris off the ticket and disconnect his current handlers. Otherwise expect more stumbling into war.
Keys says
Yes, Westman, Biden’s handlers are “stumbling into war”.
Another giant stumbling leap toward that war is approval to give US cluster bombs to the Ukraine.
Ibn Suliman says
Better a Democrat that doesn’t know what he is doing than a Democrat that does.
