Joe Biden Slack-Jawed as He Confuses Black Congressman with Black Mayor During CNN Town Hall (VIDEO)
This was awkward.
Joe Biden on Thursday evening confused a black congressman with a black mayor during a CNN town hall in Baltimore.
“By the way, there’s two famous guys in this audience here…[Senator] Ben Cardin and [Senator] Chris Van Hollen — and the Mayor!” Biden shouted referring to the black man standing next to Van Hollen.
Only it wasn’t the Mayor of Baltimore (Brandon Scott).
The black man standing next to Senator Van Hollen is Congressman Kweisi Mfume.
Imagine the searing headlines if Trump did this.
