Twitter users, including Elon Musk and Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., berated President Biden on the social media platform Friday for yet another
gaffe made by the world leader.
On Friday, Biden signed an executive order to provide limited
protections to women seeking abortions in response to the reversal of
Roe v. Wade by the Supreme Court on June 24th.
Flanked by Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of Health and
Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra, Biden addressed the country
and the press to explain his order, as well as express his commitment
to protect a woman’s right to an abortion.
During the speech, however, Biden appeared unaware as to what and what
not to read out loud from the teleprompter. In a moment that many
Twitter users found highly amusing, Biden read a quote from the
teleprompter and then read what appeared to be stage directions. He
stated, "It is noteworthy that the percentage of women who registered
to vote and cast a ballot is consistently higher than the percentage of
the men who do so. End of quote."
He then read the next set of directions out loud. "Repeat the line,"
Biden said, before reciting the quote again and continuing to the next
part of the address like nothing happened.
Cut!
Washington Times columnist Tim Young mocked the president, tweeting,
"Biden is so far gone that he will literally read anything put on the teleprompter in front of him. ‘End of quote’ ...’Repeat the line.’"
Cut!
Conservative vlogger Luke Rudkowski expressed shock that the President
of the United States was making gaffes like this. He tweeted, "This is
the commander and chief."

And who is going to replace Biden? A person who was chosen because of
their gender and skin color. Whether she was qualified or not, was not considered.
