President Joe Biden botched the name of the young woman who was allegedly murdered by an illegal alien in Georgia late last month during a shouting match with a Republican member of Congress on Thursday night during his State of the Union speech.
“I’d, be, a winner —, not really,” Biden said at the start of the awkward clip.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) shouted at Biden to say the name of Laken Riley, the young Georgia nursing student who was allegedly murdered late last month by a Venezuelan national.
“Lincoln Riley!” Biden said. “An innocent young woman who was killed by an illegal. That’s right. But how many of the thousands of people being killed by illegals? To her parents, I say, my heart goes out to you having lost children myself. I understand.”
Greene fired back at Biden on social media, writing: “Joe Biden’s policies killed Laken Riley. He finally tried to say her name, but couldn’t even say it correctly. It’s an absolute disgrace.”
