Biden Shakes Invisible Hand On Empty Stage After Ending Speech

Biden attempts handshake with absolutely no one standing next to him, wanders off looking confused.

President Joe Biden experienced a trademark “Biden moment” on Thursday, following a speech in North Carolina, miming a handshake when he was all alone on stage with nobody standing next to him.

Immediately after ending his speech with “God bless you all,” Biden turned to his right and said something to the empty space space behind him – where another person would presumably be if Biden was not all alone – and mimed a handshake.

The 79-year-old POTUS then looked around with a confused expression on his face, before beginning to amble aimlessly around the auditorium.

The speech itself was not nearly as eventful as the events that unfolded immediately after. Biden delivered boilerplate rhetoric about his Build Back Better agenda as his approval ratings floundered.

“Every action I’ve taken to rebuild our economy has been guided by one principle: made in America means using products, parts and materials built right here in the United States of America,” Biden said.

“It means bringing manufacturing jobs back, building supply chains here at home, not outsourcing from abroad,” he continued.

“Our economy has gone from being on the mend to being on the move,” Biden said. “I know that we’re still facing challenges of high prices, inflation. I grew up in a family where the price of gasoline went up at the pump.”

“We need to address these high prices, and urgently, for working folks out there,” concluded Biden. “When we build more in America we increase economic capacity. And ultimately it helps lower everyday prices for families. Look around. American manufacturing is coming back. Once again we’re seeing the pride that comes from stamping a product made in America.”
