A video is going viral of President Joe Biden appearing to struggle with his earpiece during a meeting with foreign leaders.
Social media erupted with comments about the embarrassing moment.
At 80, Biden is the oldest president in US history and he frequently struggles to remember past events or complete basic tasks.
“Earpiece defeats Joe Biden with ease,” one person commented.
“Biden gets very confused trying to figure out how to work his earpiece,” the GOP wrote on X.
“Biden is a complete disaster,” former Bill Clinton staffer Juanita Broaddrick commented. “He fiddles with earpiece while the President of Brazil introduces him.”

“Biden struggles with his earpiece,” another person said. “Guy is a walking calamity.”
An NBC poll found that a staggering 68% of all voters say they have concerns about Biden having the necessary mental and physical health to be president.
This includes 55% who say they have “major” concerns.
In 2020, 21% of Democrats said they had moderate/major concerns about Biden’s fitness.
This has skyrocketed and now 43% of Democrats are concerned about Biden’s fitness for office. This represents nearly half of Democratic voters.
