Biden gaffe confusing Trump & Obama in yet another speech blunder

PRESIDENT Joe Biden confused Barack Obama and Donald Trump in another cringing blunder Wednesday - after awkwardly refusing to answer a question about vaccine mandates in the military.

Biden was speaking at an event pushing "Made in America" jobs and products when he referred to his predecessor Trump as his previous boss Obama.

"Let me close with this," Biden said at the event in lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania.

"Back in 2009, during the so-called Great Recession, the President asked me to be in charge of managing that piece.

"Then President Trump - excuse me, Freudian slip, that was the last president. He caused - anyway," he said catching his mistake.

"President Obama, I was vice president," he recovered. "The American auto industry, you remember, was on the rise."

Earlier in the day, Biden was slammed once again for ignoring a reporter's question regarding vaccine mandates in the military.

"I'm talking about Made in America today, that's all I'm going to talk about," he told a reporter as he got off Air Force One before the event.

"Tomorrow I'll talk about whatever you want to talk about, including Covid."

He has been receiving flack for both not revealing any government policy regarding vaccinations in the military and for the constant flip-flopping of CDC and other government protocols regarding mask-wearing.

Biden was sharing details on his new initiative to boost the American economy by mandating federal agencies to buy products that have been in the country.

The initiative will hold agencies accountable for purchasing goods that have a 60 percent or higher threshold of components made in the US, a current law already on the books.

"There's a new sheriff in town," Biden said cheekily.

"Buying American" at the federal level will help boost the economy given that contractors are not required to disclose where they get their products.

The current threshold is 55 per cent, which Biden says "is not high enough."
