‘Physically unable to function’: Joe Biden roasted after his teleprompter malfunctions

Social media users have roasted US President Joe Biden as he struggled to speak after his teleprompter malfunctioned.

During a speech on Tuesday, the 82-year-old touted his economic record as president.

Biden, in one of his final speeches as president, suffered technical difficulties only 10 minutes into his speech.

“One of the things that’s going on here — they just turned off my… I lost electricity here, anyway,” Biden said.

A video of the gaffe was posted to X, with social media users mocking Biden for being “unable to function” without a teleprompter.

“Joe Biden is psychically unable to function without a teleprompter,” wrote one user.

I’m so sick of this clown saying that the American economy is great at the moment, when inflation is so high that people can’t afford food, necessities, and businesses are closing. We need Trump.

[Deano]

What an embarrassment to the western world.
You wouldn’t trust him to run a garage sale let alone the USA

[lukeh]

I'm so glad this nightmare is nearly over

Shouldn’t someone with dementia not be able to pardon their own son? “Make decisions”

[branjustoc]

The entire inflation situation boils down to one thing that he did that was the catalyst, the closing of the Keystone pipeline. Once the price of fuel went up the rest of the economy followed suit. That’s the facts, deny it if you must but you can’t hide the truth.

The strongest economy in modern history? What planet is he living on? What a joke. Just be gone already.

[sandyk]

It's not mockery, just pointing out facts, and no way is Trump inheriting a strong economy. LOL

[kaitlinbarros]

You poisoned a generation, physically and financially. What a legacy

[PaulWGregson]

If this was just any old man you would feel some empathy towards his declining mental ability but....
In between his "dropouts" he has bouts of clarity where his real persona appears and he reminds us that he is a deceptive, corrupt individual that has abused his position for his and his families personal gain. Good riddance Joe, now maybe the world can go back to normal.

It is truly sad that he is so publicly exposed. On a national level, his difficulties are an embarrassment and huge security concern.

We're all tired of hearing Obama's speeches anyway

[tessalister]

50 years in politics and can't speak without a script.

[Dora-eq]

Not hearing or seeing Harris since the election has been a blessing. Can't wait to say the same about a Biden.

[eclecticjon]

It's unbearable even listening to him.

[greeneyesshow]

Then why are they letting him make decisions for the country? Or for any other country!!!! SOMEBODY WAKE UP!!!!

[bettyfourman]

He does not do any better with the teleprompter

[jim-cvyg]

We can blame this man for being president from Dem voters both alive and dead

[jamess.]

It blows my mind that there are still people out here that think this guy could have been the Pres for 4 more years

[sdingeswho]

Delusional on his own record — it is getting to where this is not funny, anymore.

We’ve got 6 more weeks of this … I fervently hope that they will be a very quiet month and a half for the United States 🇺🇸.

[jackmarks]

He is a pathetic disgrace to this once great country.
