Joe Biden shook a woman’s hand, then held her face, then her hand for a solid, uninterrupted minute today while attending a political event at the Howard Theater.
Biden, seemingly ready to leave the stage, stopped to shake a woman’s hand before making his departure. He then released the woman’s hand, and grabbed her face with one hand on each cheek. Then, the 79-year-old held the woman’s hand for approximately 60 seconds as he continued to engage in small talk.
At one point, the woman appeared to glance down at her hand, noticing it was still being held by the powerful man who may be twice her age, before glancing up and again forcing a smile.

As if that were not enough, he then had another close physical encounter with a second woman at the same event.
This time, he grabbed her shoulder from behind for 45 seconds as he carried on a conversation with her and a larger group of attendees.

Biden has a long history of questionable physical interactions with the opposite gender, and often with children.
A website dedicated to these awkward exchanges, JoeBiden.info, was censored by big tech websites during the 2020 election.
It remains to be seen if these strange encounters will be Biden’s gaffe of the day, but it remains likely as his official schedule suggests he plans to be back at the White House by 1:30 p.m. ET, with no further events planned.
Yesterday’s Biden gaffe showed the elderly president apparently confuse the meaning behind the letters displayed on his teleprompter.
“If you get any questionable calls, please tell us by going to report fraud, report fraud, D-O-T-F-T-C dot gov,” the 79-year-old told viewers, seemingly confused by what the machine instructed him to say.
