President Joe Biden revealed during prepared remarks on Tuesday that “all of my buddies” from gradeschool went on to serve on in jobs as police officers, firefighters, and priests.
The President then contrasted these professions, which he said he “wasn’t qualified for,” with his career as a politician.
“I went to a little school called Holy Rosary grade school, across from the Claremont Fire Hall, and all my buddies, they either became a firefighter, a cop, or a priest,” Biden said. “I wasn’t qualified for any of them, so here I am.”
The commander-in-chief then laughed as he continued, “But, you know … ”

Last week Biden committed another trademark gaffe on Friday after saying that he would be starting off his speech with “two words.”
In reality Biden started off his remarks with a three-word phrase.
“Let me start off with two words: made in America,” Biden declared as the oblivious crowd cheered. He then repeated the same three-word phrase: “Made in America.”
Earlier the same week, Biden bragged about a very low number of manufacturing jobs created under his administration on Monday, making it unclear whether he misspoke or was genuinely proud of not creating over 1,000 new positions.
“As I said, since I came to office, our economy has created 10 million jobs, 668 manufacturing jobs,” Biden shouted during an event on Thursday.
The discrepancy between the numbers cited of 10 million total jobs, but only 668 manufacturing jobs, did not add up for many viewers who observed Biden’s speech.
Biden has been in office for almost two years – over 21 months to be exact – which would mean that “his economy” has created barely one job per day in a country of almost 400 million people (that is, if the 668 figure is accurate and not just another in a long list of Biden gaffes).
