Former President Joe Biden made a rare public appearance on Friday, where he struggled through his speech, as has often been the case over the past couple of years. Biden declared that \u201cwe\u2019re the United States of Amerigotit\u201d in his latest verbal gaffe during a speech before the International LGBTQ+ Leaders Conference in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe just have to get up. As long as we keep the faith \u2026 and remember who the hell we are. We\u2019re the United States of Amerigotit, that\u2019s who we are! We\u2019re the U.S.!\u201d Biden said. The former president told the assembled lawmakers and activists that it was time to \u201cfight back\u201d against the Trump administration, which he accused of violating the Constitution.<\/p>\n
\u201cAll of us are dismayed by the present state of the union,\u201d he added. \u201cThis is no time to give up. It\u2019s time to get up. Get up and fight back. Get up. Continue to fight. And what\u2019s the fight all about? \u2026 it\u2019s about protecting the Constitution. It\u2019s about protecting the Constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n
The former president further accused President Donald Trump and his supporters of attempting to \u201cdistort and derail our fight for equality\u201d and \u201cfurther divide the country,\u201d according to a report from Fox News.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey\u2019re trying to turn it into something scary, something sinister. But folks, it\u2019s really not about anything that\u2019s all that complicated. At its core, it\u2019s about making every American given the opportunity to be treated with basic decency, dignity, and respect they all deserve. That\u2019s what every single American deserves, every American,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
