President Biden Freezes on Stage During Los Angeles Fundraiser; Obama to the Rescue
US President Joe Biden froze on stage for a few moments. Former President Barack Obama, noticing Biden standing motionless, immediately held his hand and guided him away.
This incident occurred on Saturday during a fundraising campaign in Los Angeles. A video of the event has gone viral on social media.
The awkward incident was captured on camera after a 45-minute casual interview with Jimmy Kimmel at the Peacock Theater around midnight. Following their greetings to the audience, Biden stood still like a statue for nearly 10 seconds.
Observing Biden‘s lack of movement, Obama gracefully took his hand and led him off the stage.
Viewers of the video have flooded social media with comments. Criticisms are being raised about Biden’s readiness to run for another term.
Comments are pouring in about the fitness of the oldest president in US history. Last week, Biden was seen keeping his distance from world leaders at the G-7 summit in Italy.
Biden’s latest fundraising campaign was a success, raising over 30 million dollars, a record amount. Hollywood celebrities such as George Clooney, Julia Roberts, and Barbra Streisand attended the event.
In the interview with Kimmel, Biden and Obama emphasized their goal of keeping Donald Trump out of power.
