Biden makes gaffes in Pennsylvania: 'Send me to Congress!' Video Biden makes gaffes in Pennsylvania: 'Send me to Congress!' President Biden made several gaffes during a campaign stop at Strath Haven Middle School in Delaware County on Friday, March 8, 2024. During his speech, he asked voters to send him to "Congress" and bragged about adding to the national debt. Just one day after President Biden delivered a State of the Union address many liberals said put to rest questions about his mental fitness, the president raised eyebrows with several gaffes in Pennsylvania. Biden visited Strath Haven Middle School in Delaware County on Friday for his first swing state campaign stop after outlining his agenda to a joint session of Congress. There, he pitched his plans for a second White House term, promising to protect abortion rights, defending his economic record and calling for new gun control laws. He also made some unforced errors in his speech, which were ridiculed by Republicans.
"Pennsylvania, I have a message for you: Send me to Congress!" Biden shouted at one point, appearing to mix up the office he's running for. He was a six-term U.S. senator representing Delaware in Congress before he became vice president in 2008. Later in his remarks, Biden said, "we cut the deficit and we added more to the national debt than any president in his term in all of history, than under Donald Trump."

At another point, Biden mistakenly referred to the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riots as taking place on "July 6th," and then corrected himself. The gaffes illustrate how Biden, 81, must continue to fight off criticisms of his age and mental fitness from Republicans as the general election heats up. The president did earn praise from many liberals for his "energetic" State of the Union performance on Thursday.
Republicans saw the speech differently. They questioned why Biden kept shouting to emphasize his points and noted that he spoke very fast at times and slurred his words. "A lot of the time it was hard to understand what he was saying," said House Freedom Caucus Chairman Bob Good, R-Va. "He was kind of mumbling and slurring."

Ted Cruz, R-Texas, remarked the president's annual address was "reminiscent of an old, angry man standing on his porch screaming ‘get off my front lawn.’"
