US President Joe Biden was recently seen making another huge gaffe in public when he opted to send out a congratulatory and heartfelt speech to the new prime minister of the United Kingdom.
And while mistakes and mispronunciation can happen to anyone on live television, when it comes to the US president, people can be very unforgiving.
Biden was witnessed at a White House event that marked the auspicious occasion of Diwali which is celebrated by Hindus around the globe. Hence, he was then seen wishing the new UK prime minister named Rishi Sunak a very wonderful start to his new terms as the country’s leader.
But again, he stumbled and this was a mistake that not only turned vial in no time but also gave rise to a shocking meme.
People were quick to bash the country’s head of state for calling Sunak name Rashee Sanook. And some who were devoted fans of the President just couldn’t accept the mistake with open arms.
Sunak is going to be the UK’s first-ever non-white prime minister. And that is one feature that US President Joe Biden hailed to be a huge and significant milestone in the country’s history.
Sunak was announced as the UK’s prime minister today after his brief meeting with King Charles who welcomed him into the new role with open arms as the duo was recently pictured donning huge smiles.
As you can probably guess by now, the incident is fuming a lot of rumors about the president’s current mental state.
“For those wondering, yes, he’s done it again!”- mentioned one Twitter user, and just like that, the comments ridiculing the current US president continued to arise.
The President is expecting to call the new Prime Minister in the next few days as it’s a part of the US government protocol to wait until the current reigning monarch has officially welcomed him.
