Biden Mixes Up French Presidents Macron and Mitterrand, Who Died in 1996

TL;DR Summary
During a speech, President Joe Biden appeared to confuse the current French president Emmanuel Macron with his predecessor Francois Mitterrand, who died in 1996. This is the latest in a series of gaffes for the 81-year-old president, who has previously made confusing statements about the war in Ukraine, declared that Vladimir Putin was losing the war in Iraq, and made other verbal missteps. Biden's confusion is embarrassing as he has a history of gaffes and is already battling to convince the American public that he retains his full mental faculties.
