During a photo shoot at the G7 Summit in Italy US President Joe Biden appeared visibly lost and confused, prompting further scrutiny and concern over his ability to effectively lead the United States.
The incident occurred as world leaders gathered for a group photograph, and Biden’s apparent disorientation has added to the growing debate over his mental acuity and who is truly running the country.
This follows the so-called ‘Poop-Gate’ incident at the recent Normandy landing commemoration.
Biden was seen wandering and needing direction from Italian PM Giorgia Meloni find his place for the photograph.
Biden, who turns 82 in November, has had several public missteps, including forgetting names, losing his train of thought during speeches, and making factual errors. These repeated occurrences have led to increased scrutiny from both political opponents and the media. Some have even questioned who is effectively making decisions in the administration, suggesting that unelected aides and advisors may be playing a more significant role than is publicly acknowledged.
In response to these concerns the White House has maintained that the President is in good health and fully capable of performing his duties.
Embarrassed Americans took to social media as video of the incident spread, with one commenter saying it was ‘sad to watch’, while another called it ‘elder abuse’, presumably on the part of the Democratic Party in the lead up to the 2024 US Presidential election.
The longer Joe Biden video is even more surreal.
Check out the suppressed shock and amusement on Meloni, Macron and others’ faces. #G7 pic.twitter.com/i7H1ik3B6D— Abhijit Majumder (@abhijitmajumder) June 13, 2024

Ursula has a very disturbing look on her face in the direction of the parachutists crotch. It seems to have given her great pleasure.
And they were determined not to shake the guys hand either. Arms folded tight.
