Donald Trump and Joe Biden found themselves in an awkward near-meeting at Pope Francis’s funeral, but it turns out they were saved from a close encounter by quite a distance. Trump had the privilege of sitting in the front row and joining the world leaders, while poor Biden ended up way behind. He was stuck behind some random Iranian minister, which seemed like the universe’s not-so-subtle way of keeping him out of the limelight.
Biden nearly took a tumble down the Vatican steps, adding a funny twist to the situation. Viewers couldn’t help but notice him struggling and needing assistance from his wife and an elderly church usher to stay on his feet. It’s no wonder people were left scratching their heads, wondering why this spectacle even happened.
Adding to the amusement, a new hoax was cooked up to distract from Biden’s stair dance routine. Cue the media outrage over Trump’s blue suit choice. Yes, folks, it seems the world momentarily forgot that blue is, in fact, a color suitable for funerals. They conveniently ignored the abundant blue suits worn by others at the event, even by Prince William and other world dignitaries, just to create some nonsensical drama around Trump.
It’s worth mentioning that while Trump respectfully attended the funeral in a suit, others, like the Ukrainian President Zelensky, chose far more laid-back attire. You’d think there’d be some noise about a tracksuit at a funeral, but no, it was all about Trump’s blue suit, a color seen far and wide at the gathering. It seems like the media’s obsession with creating a villainous narrative about Trump knows no bounds.
All this fuss over clothing when there was a much more bizarre incident involving Biden. Not long ago, he couldn’t resist getting uncomfortably close to Pope Francis, a breach of etiquette that seemed to slip entirely under the media’s radar. But hey, let’s all focus on a blue suit instead. Perhaps the blue suit scandal wouldn’t be so laughable if the media could muster the same energy for Biden’s antics.
