At the end of April 2023, social networks were flooded with a video in which Biden, as if by mistake, was campaigning for his predecessor as US President. We have verified the authenticity of the viral recording.
Reported, that during his election speech the current US President misspoke and said: “We cannot get re-elected... We cannot win this election. Sorry, we can only re-elect Donald Trump." Telegram channel “ZeRada” (207,000 views at the time of writing this text) clarifies: Biden allegedly admitted he won't win next year at a meeting in Missouri. “The speech was so stupid that at the end the Democratic Party supporters who had gathered for his speech laughed,” added Putin TG Team channel (62,000 views).

On VKontakte, users have posted more than fifty such posts, and the video was shared by publics “TV channel 360", as well as publications "Paragraph" And "Staff Correspondent" An excerpt from Biden's speech on Twitter dialed millions of views. News about the alleged reservation of the American president can also be found on the websites of Russian media - among them “Arguments of the week" And "Morning south"
Biden plans to run for US President again in the 2024 elections announced April 25, 2023, and former President Donald Trump started his election campaign back in January. Although the video with Biden’s “disclaimer” went viral at the end of April 2023, Russian media wrote about it back in 2020, when the politician had not even become a single candidate in the elections from the Democratic Party.
So, more than three years ago, the EADaily website reported, that the politician “once again demonstrated an inability to clearly express his thoughts”: allegedly at a meeting with voters on March 8, 2020 in St. Louis, Missouri, Biden stated the need to re-elect President Trump for a new term. Then it also spread video with the same words of the democrat, but taken from a different angle. Trump even tweets reposted passage that published Then-incumbent Dan Scavino advisor president and director of social media at the White House. The then-current president wrote: “I agree with Joe!”
But did Biden misspoke in 2020?
The viral video was checked by fact checkers three years ago Reuters, CNN, Associated Press, Washington Post, as well as a journalist for the RTVI television channel (and now the editor-in-chief of “Verified”) Ilya Ber — they all came to the conclusion that the viral video was cut to create manipulation. Biden really spoke in Missouri (but not in St. Louis, but in Kansas City) and actually said words about Trump's re-election, but they were taken out of context. The YouTube channel of the winner of the 2020 presidential election has a complete recording his speeches, and the whole phrase sounded So:
If you want a candidate who will unite this party, who will run a progressive and positive campaign and turn this primary from a state of negative attacks into a campaign focused on what we [stand for]... Because we can't re-elect... We can't win this election - sorry, we can only re-elect Donald Trump - if we engage in this constant back-and-forth shooting. This should be a positive campaign, so join us.
That is, the Democratic candidate said that if civil strife within the party does not stop, the people of the United States will re-elect Republican President Trump.
In 2020, Scavino's tweet with the video cropped and misidentifying the city of St. Louis became the first post on Twitter to receive warning about media manipulation in accordance with the new company policy. Moreover, in subsequent posts Scavino claimedthat "the video was not manipulated", and agreed with the fact that "Twitter has set a dangerous precedent."
