* Australia will buy nuclear submarines in a historic new alliance with US and UK
* Australia will form part of a three-way security pact with the UK and America
* Scott Morrison, Joe Biden, and Boris Johnson held a press conference Thursday
* Mr Biden appeared to forget Scomo's name, saying: 'Thanks fella Down Under..'
* It is hoped the partnership will counter the rise of an increasingly hostile China
US President Joe Biden appeared to forget Scott Morrison's name while announcing America and Britain will help Australia build a nuclear-powered submarine fleet.
The prime minister joined Mr Biden and British PM Boris Johnson in a historic three-way press conference to unveil the 'AUKUS' alliance to counter the worrying rise of China in the Pacific.
But Mr Biden seemed lost recalling his Australian PM's name as he thanked the other two leaders who spoke before him.

It is just so apparent Emperor Joe has no clothes. Joe is running around buck naked, which is a big turn on for liberals. Some of whom post here.
"If Robert E. Lee had been in Afghanistan he would've won." - Biden

Reality to Joe. Robert E. Lee has been dead for over 100 years.
"You know what I mean. But the kinds of things or, you know, stuff that's coming out of Florida, stuff that's coming out of you know, Robert E. lee had been in Afghanistan, he woulda won."

Do verbal tics an indication of person is unprepared to discuss a topic and/or a leading indicator of mental decrepitude?
Biden is messing up with the names of the Sec Def and PM of a major ally.
Democrats have already gone there, so we will too. Payback is a bitch. So quit whining like a stuck pig,
I find Trump's getting the 1st names of people somewhat concerning. But note he he gets the last names right. He did not with Debbie Washerwoman-Schultz, but she has such a long ass surname, she deserves it after all the bad stuff she has done.
But Bidens supposed to be the messiah , Trump didn't get a free pass (as you just reminded us) so why should Mr poppy pants?

Every time Trump made up, confused, or didn’t know of countries that actually exist
New to the list: Nepal and Bhutan.

President Donald Trump didn’t know that Nepal and Bhutan were countries until an adviser told him, according to a new report from Politico.
Before Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the White House last June, Trump met with national security aides and seemed confused by the two countries’ existence, according to two people briefed on the meeting who spoke to Politico:
“He didn’t know what those were. He thought it was all part of India,” said one person familiar with the meeting. “He was like, ‘What is this stuff in between and these other countries?'”
Here is a map of South Asia:

As you can see, Bhutan and Nepal are definitely their own countries.
According to the Politico report, Trump mispronounced Nepal as “nipple” and Bhutan as “button.” He also suggested that he could set up Modi with someone, after learning Modi is estranged from his wife.
(As a depressing aside, less than a year after Trump apparently learned Nepal is its own country, his administration ended temporary protected status for 9,000 Nepalese immigrants living in the United States, giving them just one year to figure out another way to legally stay or pack up and leave.)
I personally cannot verify the Politico report, which cites two unnamed sources, but I can say with certainty that Trump has very little understanding of world geography. Trump has, on several occasions, made up countries, confused one country for another, and not known whether something is a country or a city.
Here are just a few examples.
1. Trump made up the country of “Nambia”
Speaking before African leaders at the United Nations in September 2017, Trump twice referred to the made up country of “Nambia.”
“Nambia’s health system is increasingly self-sufficient,” he said at one point.
People wondered whether he meant to say Namibia, Zambia, or Gambia. “Nambia” is not a country.
A White House transcript later fixed Trump’s mistake, and made it clear that the president was trying to talk about Namibia, a country of about 2 million in southern Africa.
2. Trump confused Iraq and Syria, after bombing the latter
In April 2017, Trump authorized a missile strike in Syria, and 59 Tomahawk missiles hit an airbase controlled by the Syrian government. Just a few days later, he forgot which country the United States bombed.
In an interview with Fox Business Network, Trump retold the story of how he shared the news that night with Chinese President Xi Jinping, while the two were eating dessert.
“We had the most beautiful piece of chocolate cake that you’ve ever seen, and President Xi was enjoying it,” he said. “So what happens is I said, ‘We’ve just launched 59 missiles…heading to Iraq.'”
“Well, heading to Syria,” Fox Business Network editor Maria Bartiromo said, correcting him.
“Yes, heading toward Syria,” Trump said, after a brief pause.
Bartiromo did not ask Trump how he had confused the two countries.
3. Trump confused North and South Korea
In March, Trump told journalists that North Korea called him and asked to meet for discussions.
“It was headed for disaster and now we’re talking,” he said. “They, by the way, called up a couple of days ago; they said, ‘We would like to talk.’ And I said, ‘So would we, but you have to denuke.'”
Such a call would have been huge at the time, as it would have been the first direct outreach from North Korea. But in reality, Trump had had a conversation with South Korean President Moon Jae-in, who called to talk about developments regarding North Korea.
Since then, Trump has actually met with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, but left the meeting with very little to show for it.
4. Trump called Belgium “a beautiful city”
While still a candidate, Trump described life in different places in Europe at a campaign stop in Atlanta, Georgia.
“Belgium is a beautiful city,” he boldly declared in June 2016. Just a few months earlier, he had called Brussels a “hellhole.”
Belgium is a country of about 11 million in western Europe. Brussels is the capital of Belgium.
5. “I never knew we had so many countries.”
Trump said this during an official banquet in Tokyo, Japan in November 2017, shortly after being elected.
He made the comment while describing his relationship with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. He then referred to the calls he was getting from other world leaders.
“So my relationship with Shinzo got off to quite a rocky start because I never ran for office, and here I am. But I never ran, so I wasn’t very experienced,” he said. “And after I had won, everybody was calling me from all over the world. I never knew we had so many countries.”
Everyone cringes except the Leftstream media, which continues to cover for Cornpop. Business as usual, move along.

The article is about Biden not Trump.

dear heart: if Your side accuses our guy of this and that then it is fair and right to show that your guy does the same thing but much worse and had done it more often. Do we simply dismiss what Trump did nonstop and badmouth the guy you dislike?
Trump Picked Giuliani Since 'Sane Lawyers' Couldn't Represent Him: Book
5:51 except Trump predates Biden, so you guys did it first. And you low lifes pretty much went after Trump nonstop. You set the table, you set the rules, so now we are playing by them and you complain like a stuck pig. Secretly though, you like being stuck.
Biden rarely knows his own name.
Frankly I am beginning to be bothered by biden from a foreign policy standpoint. Harris is next in line. How would these two or that one, do should a sudden conflict break out. These people were not prepared for the Afghanistan script. How about the South China Sea situation? Afghanistan would be child's play if that region heats up.
I like liberals. They beclown themselves. Been investigate Trump since 2015. It is almost 2022. Do we see a pattern here?
Their great guy was Cuomo. Many liberals were Cuomosexuals. They gave him an Emmy for killing thousands and then decided he had to go not for murder, but for groping.
Nobody cares what you say or think.
What's the article about Freddy?
I don't care what you think. You are so ephemeral as to almost not be here at all.
Biden is actually referring to the Aussie PM as a dick "that fella down under".
