Biden Mistakenly Called Kamala Harris 'Vice President Trump' and Volodymyr Zelenskyy 'President Putin'

Joe Biden raised eyebrows on Thursday when he mistakenly referred to Vice President Kamala Harris ​​​​​​​as “Vice President Trump.”

The POTUS made the embarrassing gaffe during a high-stakes press conference at this week’s NATO summit, which marked his first presser since his disastrous debate performance against former president Donald Trump, the GOP’s presumptive 2024 presidential nominee.

While fielding questions from reporters, Biden was pressed about his candidacy viability and whether his VP would have a better chance at defeating Trump if she were at the top of the ticket.

“Look, I wouldn’t have picked Vice President Trump to be vice president did I think she was not qualified to be president,” the 81-year-old said. “So let’s start there.”

The now-viral Harris/Trump flub occurred less than an hour after Biden stumbled over his words while introducing Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy as Russian president Vladimir Putin.

“And now I want to hand it over the president of Ukraine, who has as much courage as he has determination,” Biden said on the third and final night of the NATO summit. “Ladies and gentlemen, President Putin.”

The POTUS started to walk away from the podium before quickly correcting himself on the mic.

“President Putin? He’s gonna beat President Putin. President Zelenskyy,” Biden said in an attempt to play. “I’m so focused on beating Putin, we gotta worry about it. Anyway, Mr. President.”

“I’m better,” Zelenskyy joked as he shook Biden’s hand.

“You are a hell of a lot better,” POTUS said.

The blunders come as Biden faces mounting calls to end his bid for a second term. A growing number of Democratic congressional leaders, political pundits, and donors have expressed concerns over the president’s age and mental fitness. George Clooney, a self-proclaimed “lifelong Democrat” and Biden supporter, is among the high-profile donors who have urged Biden to withdraw from the race and allow a more viable candidate to take on 78-year-old Trump.

“I love Joe Biden,” Clooney, 63, wrote in a recent New York Times op-ed. “As a senator. As a vice president and as president. I consider him a friend, and I believe in him. Believe in his character. Believe in his morals. In the last four years, he’s won many of the battles he’s faced.

“But the one battle he cannot win is the fight against time. None of us can,” the two-time Oscar-winner continued. “It’s devastating to say it, but the Joe Biden I was with three weeks ago at the fund-raiser was not the Joe ‘big F-ing deal’ Biden of 2010. He wasn’t even the Joe Biden of 2020. He was the same man we all witnessed at the debate. … We are not going to win in November with this president.”

Biden, however, insists he has no intentions of abandoning his presidential bid as he remains confident in a 2024 victory.

“You probably heard that I had a little debate last week,” Biden said at a Wisconsin campaign rally on July 5. “Can’t say it is my best performance, but ever since then, there’s been a lot of speculation: ‘What’s Joe going to do? Is he going to stay in the race? Is he going to drop out, what’s he going to do?’ Well, here’s my answer. I am running and gonna win again.”
