During the Commissioning Commemoration Ceremony of the USS Delaware, US President Joe Biden referred to Michelle Obama as the ‘Vice President’ by mistake.
US President has again found himself at the receiving end of criticism after a major faux pas during a speech on April 2. During the Commissioning Commemoration Ceremony of the USS Delaware, Biden referred to Michelle Obama as the ‘Vice President’ by an unfortunate mistake.
During the address, what Biden wanted to convey was a note of gratitude to his wife and the First Lady of the US, Jill Biden, for the work she had been doing. Instead of saying, “I’m deeply proud of the work she is doing as First Lady with the Joining Forces initiative she started with Michelle Obama when I was Vice President and now carries on”, Biden referred to Michelle Obama as the Vice President.
Take a look at the gaffe:

The video has now gone viral with millions of views. Netizens were quick enough to point out the series of mistakes Joe Biden made previously, including calling Kamala Harris the ‘First Lady’.
She should have been. And almost was!
No he misspoke.
