the White House
chairman Joe Biden Suffers another mistake at the podium… this time, she incorrectly identifies a WNBA superstar candace parker As a “coach”.
The glitch occurred while Biden was hosting the Parker Las Vegas Aces at the White House to celebrate their 2023 championship.
Speaking to the crowd gathered inside a room at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Biden tried to praise Parker, who could not attend the ceremony, but misspoke.
“Although she couldn’t be here,” he said of the recently retired ace, “I want to acknowledge someone we consider one of the greatest coaches of all time – Candace Parker.”
Sure, Parker played forward/center during his illustrious career… but never coached a sport.
Most of the aces looked extremely confused by the comment…with kelsey plum He is even seen smiling at this.
But, no one stepped up to correct No. 46 — and they continued to praise Parker… at least this time in a more matter-of-fact manner.
Biden said of Parker, “He announced his retirement from the game, and I want to thank him for his incredible career.”
The rest of the event went off without a hitch — Biden got a customized Aces jersey and everyone seemed to have a good time — but now this is the second time in the past few weeks that POTUS has caught some heat for his behavior on the mic.
You will remember, on April 24 he said these words “pause“While reading from a teleprompter – which led to many people making fun of him on social media.

We’re sure there will be more trolls on the Internet because of his Thursday antics… but at least there are some other championship celebrities at the White House today to distract him.
