Biden steals snack while joking about being fired
- Joe Biden attended a military buffet on Staten Island.
- He jokingly claimed he had been fired from his position.
- The event demonstrated his playful personality even as he faces scrutiny.
On November 25, 2024, in Staten Island, New York, President Joe Biden engaged in a lighthearted moment at a military buffet hosted for Coast Guard members and their families. During the event, he humorously claimed to have been fired as he lagged with a Hawaiian roll while serving food. Biden expressed his connection to the Coast Guard Academy reflecting on an all-state quarterback he attended school with from the early 1900s. Despite persistent criticism regarding his mental acuity, he spoke as if he may vie for office once more, despite concluding his re-election campaign earlier that year. He is expected to spend Thanksgiving on Nantucket Island with his family, continuing a personal tradition of celebrating the holiday there in recent years.
