U.S. President Joe Biden seemed to have forgotten the name of his appointed secretary of defense.
On the 9th (local time), Fox News could not call the exact name of Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin at an event held at the White House the day before. President Biden said, “Well, and I want to thank the sec- the, the, ah former general.” “I keep calling him general, but my, my- the guy who runs that outfit over there,” he said. Fox News assessed that President Biden expressed this because he could not remember the name of the minister.
President Biden, the oldest US president of all time, has never been able to remember his name. In December of last year, when he was elected, he nominated California State Attorney General Javier Bessera as Minister of Health and Welfare of the new government, calling him’Javier Bagheria’ and correcting it immediately. Last month, in the process of expressing gratitude to Texas Congressman Silla Jackson Lee, he misrepresented him as “Shirley Jackson Lee.”
Former President Donald Trump also sarcastic that President Biden’s cognitive abilities were declining during the presidential campaign. In a public debate between presidential candidates, Trump mocked President Biden that he should have an IQ test. In response, President Biden asked, “Why should I be tested?”
