Joe Biden makes shocking revelation, says staff won’t let him call young girls on stage, but…

President Joe Biden asked little girls to join him onstage at an event honoring Gotham FC on Monday. In a shocking revelation, he said his White House staff has told him he “can’t” do “things that I want to do.” The POTUS added, however, that he would “do them anyway.”

Following his remarkable confession during a celebration honoring the 2023 National Women’s Soccer League champion, Biden, 81, was spotted shaking hands with several elementary and middle school students onstage in the East Room.

“You know, I thought if I became president, I would be able to do things that I want to do. But my staff tells me what I can’t do,” Biden noted after arriving at the event with 40-year-old standout player Ali Krieger.

“But I’m going to do it anyway,” the POTUS added. “All the young women, young children out there — that’s out there, come on and do this. Get behind me, that would be good. Just come.”

Biden was heard asking several children over the microphone what their names were, but some of his comments were unintelligible.

Republicans have previously circulated videos in which Biden appears to bewilder both adults and young women by touching or sniffing them in public settings. His critics have dubbed him “Creepy Joe.” During his speech, Biden did not explain why his staff was banning such contact.

Biden and his strange comparison to young girls

In April 2019, Biden pledged to be “more mindful of respecting personal space” in the future after several women came forward to talk about the negative effects his unwanted contact had on their lives.

Compared to his vice presidency under Barack Obama, he has made far fewer embarrassing video recordings as president.

After being forced to drop the Democratic presidential nomination over concerns about his mental health, Biden has become more vocal about his views as he nears retirement. On Monday afternoon, he travels to New York City for the annual meetings of the United Nations General Assembly.

First lady Jill Biden spoke more during the public portion of the Cabinet meeting on Friday than her husband Biden, who spent much of his time on vacation.
