Joe Biden Forgot He’s Running for President; Unable To Remember Mitt Romney's Name
Another senior moment? On the campaign trail, Joe Biden had a brain fart because he'll hop off again. He forgot yet again what office he was running for today.
Biden claimed he was running for the U.S. Senate like he did in February. He also forgot Mitt Romney's name and said he was elected 180 years earlier to the Senate.
It's just more of an emotional trip-up trend that doubts whether this guy is ready for the office. Some people think he doesn't have the toughness. On top of that, he declines to address concerns about his Supreme Court judicial nominations. Biden even said voters do not deserve to know his stance over the court-packing issue.

Do we forget who?
Biden was questioned whether the faith of Judge Amy Coney Barrett could be "considered" during her appointment to the Supreme Court. The Democratic candidate flatly denied the incident when momentarily fielding questions from reporters en route to a campaign rally in Ohio.
As part of his explanation, however, he recalled a time when he "got in trouble" concerning questioning someone's faith. He corrected himself and stated no one's belief should be questioned.
"You may remember, I got in trouble when we were running against the senator who was a Mormon, the governor, OK?," Biden said. The governor, the Republican candidate for president against Barack Obama in the 2012 election, was then-former Gov. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts. In 2018, Romney was elected senator for Utah.

After, after his stump speech at a political drive-in rally in Toledo, Biden supported America's potential to emerge out of a "stronger" national recession than it had emerged in.
Trump makes fun of Biden over 'senior' moment
On Twitter, President Trump ridiculed Biden's latest gaffes.
Sleepy Joe Biden had a particularly bad day today. He couldn’t remember the name of Mitt Romney, said again he was running for the U.S. Senate, and forgot what State he was in. If I did any of this, it would be disqualifying. With him, he’s just Sleepy Joe! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 12, 2020
This was not the first time that Biden mistakenly told backers he was aiming for the Senate. Back in February, at a South Carolina Democratic event, he misrepresented which office he was seeking.
The former VP was slammed last week for a viral clip of him suggesting why citizens were willing to quarantine during the coronavirus pandemic.
"They're saying, 'Jeez, the reason I was able to stay sequestered in my home is [that some] Black woman was able to stack the grocery shelf,'" Biden is heard saying in the clip.
The 10-second film, initially posted on Sept. 29, was only a snapshot of remarks made at a roundtable with veterans in Tampa, Fla. on Sept. 15 by the Democratic candidate.
