The video in which Joe Biden says that he is Joe Biden's husband spread about a week after the first official debate, past On the eve of the presidential election in the United States. On them, the current head of state opposed the previous one - Donald Trump, the most likely candidate from the Republicans. According to almost unanimous opinion The leading American media, Biden, during the debate, performed unsuccessfully: he was stammered and stipulated, often looked aside and, in principle, looked uncertain, thereby strengthening the widespread opinion that the 81-year-old politician could not effectively rule the country for four more years. Politico publication with reference to sources reportedthat the US Democratic Party began to think about replacing the candidate for elections, and the editors of The New York Times in an open letter directly He called Democrats to expose a younger politician against Trump, despite all Biden’s merits in the public service for half a century.

Taking advantage of the tools for the reverse search for the Google screenshot, it was “verified” that Internet users published a viral video with similar comments three weeks ago-so, on June 19, the video with the subtitles “My name is Joe Biden, and I am Joe Biden's husband” Placed In his profile, the Spanish -speaking user Tiktok.
On the eve of June 18, the US president took part in the celebration of the 12th anniversary of the adoption of the law DACA. In 2012 (Biden was then vice-president in the Barack Obama administration) this law allowed migrants who came to the country by children and were illegally on its territory, ask for a deferment of deportation and to enter the university for two years or find a job. The transcript of the solemn event Published On the White House website, and broadcast Available On the verified YouTube channel of the US President.
At first, the first lady Jill Biden took the stands, her short introductory speech was interrupted several times by applause. Then the word passed to Havier Castro, who, thanks to Daca, was able to stay in the United States, get a higher education and start a career in medicine. After the story about how the law influenced the life of thousands of migrants and how he did not allow “breaking up the families”, he invited Joe Biden to the microphone. Thanking Castro for his speech and work by a nurse, the US president said: "My name is Joe Bayden, I am Jill Bayden's husband." After that, the laughter in the hall also followed the ten -minute performance of the American leader.
The video that dispersed through Telegram channels was not even edited-Biden also says that he is Jill Biden's husband. Probably, the bloggers simply did not know or preferred to ignore the fact that the first lady had a name with her husband. The manner of speech of the US president, since childhood struggling With stuttering, it is somewhat peculiar (especially in recent years), but he pronounces the word "jill" quite clearly. It is significant that the viral video with such comments spread mainly beyond the boundaries of the English -language segment of the Internet, that is, the vast majority of native speakers (at least watching records) did not see anything worthy of much attention in the video.
The US President regularly appears at public events as her husband Jill Biden, with whom he had been married for more than 45 years. He acted so in 2023, and c 2022, and c 2021, And Before his election to the post of head of state. This usually happens during Bayden's performances in the presence of the first lady.
Thus, Joe Bayden did not call himself Joe Biden’s husband - on a viral video that was not even edited, he quite clearly and clearly introduced himself as her husband Jill Bayden. The American president is not using such a rhetorical technique in his speeches for the far from the first time.
