Well, here we go again, folks. President Biden has once again managed to fumble his way through a crucial moment on the global stage. During a press conference alongside Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday, Biden did what he does best—get confused and lose track of reality.

This time, in Wilmington, Delaware, the president was supposed to introduce Prime Minister Modi, but instead, he looked like someone who had misplaced their car keys. He asked the room, “Who am I introducing next?” Seriously? He’s the president of the United States, hosting one of the most influential leaders of the world, and he doesn’t even know who’s standing next to him?

After an awkward silence, with Biden seemingly waiting for a reporter’s question instead of following the script, an announcer had to step in and introduce Modi. What followed was a forced handshake and, no doubt, a collective sigh of relief from those watching who were hoping that Biden wouldn’t completely derail U.S.-India relations in one fell swoop.

It’s not like this is the first time we’ve seen this act. Biden’s confusion has become an unfortunate hallmark of his administration. But hold on—this comedy of errors isn’t just confined to foreign dignitaries. The day before this mishap, Biden received a wave of criticism for, wait for it—letting the First Lady, Jill Biden, run a cabinet meeting. You read that right. In a bizarre twist, Joe Biden invited his wife to lead a discussion on women’s health initiatives while he sat back and barely spoke for two minutes.

And the cherry on top? The White House Correspondents’ Association has been protesting the lack of press access at Biden’s Quad Summit, making it clear that transparency isn’t exactly this administration’s strong suit. You have a president who gets confused during global events, lets his wife run cabinet meetings, and avoids the press at crucial moments. If this doesn’t make you wonder about the leadership coming out of the Oval Office, what will?

America deserves better than this constant string of missteps. It’s time to ask: Is Joe Biden really in charge, or are we witnessing the quiet ascension of a new kind of shadow presidency?
