President Joe Biden visited the Detroit Auto Show on Wednesday, and his appearance was full of his ever-present gaffes.
Most of the embarrassing moments centered around Biden’s brief time checking out a brand new orange Corvette. Specifically, the car was Chevrolet’s brand new 2023 Corvette Z06, WXYZ-TV reported.
As he climbed into the front seat, Biden looked as out of touch as he has ever been. He tried to save face by making a joke.
“I’m telling the head of my Secret Service detail, I’m driving home,” Biden said.

As uncomfortable as that clip is, it was Biden’s exit from the vehicle that truly raised eyebrows.
Biden bent down at the waist as if he was about to stand up, but he quickly decided against it. A man then came over and appeared to shake Biden’s hand.
While still grasping the man’s hand, Biden gingerly stood up and got out of the vehicle. One Twitter user felt the apparent handshake was nothing more than a disguise.
