Biden Makes International Headlines For Forgetting Aussie PM Name

Australians were shown a glimpse of what Americans are regularly exposed to on an almost daily basis. This was after a cringeworthy exchange between President Joe Biden with Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison. The broadcast was broadcast live on the White House feed and some Australian and United Kingdom news outlets.

Biden met with Morrison and Boris Johnson, UK Prime Minister, to discuss a “new enhanced trilateral partnership between Australia, Australia and the United States [AUKUS]”.

Towards the closing of the meeting, Biden thanked Johnson for his continued support of his country and their strategic alliances with the United States.

However, it was when Biden reached out to Morrison to express his gratitude that things became more awkward. Biden seemed to forget Morrison’s name instead of calling him by his name, which is a standard procedure in these situations.

“Thank you, Boris. And I want to thank that fella down under. Thank you very much, pal. Appreciate it, Mr. Prime Minister,” Biden stated to Morrison, smiling as he turned back to face the camera to finish the remainder of his prepared remarks.

Watch It Here:

This embarrassing moment has not been reported by any U.S. news outlets (except maybe Fox News or the New York Post). It would be surprising if they did. They are usually in Protect the Precious mode. However, major media outlets in Australia and the UK reported on the incident and made it the focus of their tweets and write-ups.

Politico EU headline says “That fellow from Down Under” — Aussies cringe when Biden seems to have forgotten PM’s name.”

Fairness aside, Biden mentioned Johnson and Morrison in the title and name about 10-15 seconds later. However, I think the teleprompter may have had something to do with it.

Although Biden’s mistake of forgetting the name of a leader of a country was not funny, I found it quite humorous to see the reactions from random Aussies via Twitter. Some joked that Biden should have used “mate”, instead of “pal”, to address Morrison, while others joked about how they wish they could forget their Prime Minister, given the harsh state of things in the land Down Under.
