A viral video of Joe Biden's interview with comic Seth Meyers on the latter's NBC shows the President apparently losing his train of thought, sparking humorous memes online. On Monday, February 26, 2024, the 46th President of the United States was seen on NBC's Late Night With Seth Meyers in recognition of the show's 10th anniversary.
When Meyers asked the 81-year-old President to address concerns over his age and memory, he promptly quips:
"Take a look at the other guy. He is about as old as I am, but he can't remember his wife's name," referring to his 2024 Presidential competitor, Donald Trump.
However, Biden seemingly loses his train of thought and continues:
"...They told us we couldn't get 'em done 'cause things were so divided and... but I think everything's... everything we've gotten done.... He's... this just friendly state he wants to do away with... he gets elected and I really think his views... where to take America are older than… anyway."
Needless to say, exasperated internet users were quick to troll the President.
