At this point none of Biden’s gaffes are surprising anymore.
His latest gaffe happened at a press conference that followed his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In the press conference Biden got confused and referred to Putin as “President Trump”.
Many users on social media quickly caught the error and were able to upload the blunder on Rumble.
Take a look:

Fox News had more to share about Biden’s mishap:
Biden raised eyebrows with an odd gaffe during his press conference following a summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, in which he appeared to mistakenly use the name of his own predecessor when discussing the Russian leader.
Biden spoke after Putin gave a separate press conference, and was reflecting on what he said about the Arctic.
“I caught part of President, uh, Tru– uh, Putin’s press conference, and he talked about the need for us to have some kind of modus operandi where the Arctic was in fact a free zone,” Biden said.
House Republicans were quick to point out the error.
Twitter users quickly took notice, with more than 2,900 likes and 1,100 retweets. A tweet observing the mix-up posted by CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins drew more than 17,000 likes and 1,400 retweets.

Business Insider got the scoop too:
Joe Biden slipped up after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom he accidentally called “President Trump.”
Biden quickly corrected himself and moved on from his mistake, which he made Wednesday at a press conference after the two leaders’ summit.
They met for cool but cordial discussions in Geneva, where they ceded little ground but agreed on several principles.
They debriefed the media separately after their meeting, and Biden made his error as he was discussing the leaders’ priorities in numerous areas of international relations.
That wasn’t the only time he messed up at a Press Conference at the G7 Summit, just a day before he yelled at a CNN reporter for just asking him a question.
