Biden recounted a narrative he has instructed many instances throughout his presidency, a few assembly he had with French President Emmanuel Macron throughout a G7 assembly in England, some months after Biden had taken over the White Home.
“I sat down and I said, ‘America’s back,’” Biden recalled. “And Mitterrand from Germany – I mean from France – looked at me and said…”
Biden appeared to path off earlier than amassing his ideas to complete the sentence: “Well, how long are you back for?”
The president continued, saying the “Chancellor of Germany” requested him how he – and by extension, the U.S. – would reply if, hypothetically, 1000’s of individuals stormed Britain’s Home of Commons and killed two “bobbies,” or British cops, to cease the election of a Prime Minister.
