The US President has been caught in yet another gaffe moment

A new video showing Joe Biden attempting to take selfies with digital creators and influencers, but failing miserably has emerged.

The US President entered the room filled with makeup artists, fitness gurus and chiefs and tried to take a selfie before uttering a word.


However, his attempt failed to capture any of digital creators and influencers.

During the event he stated that the digital creators and influencers are the future of communication stating: “You’re the source of the news…You are the new breakthrough in how we communicate.

“And that’s why I invited you to the White House, because I’m looking for a job.”

During the event he encouraged the digital creators to take videos with him.

He was also seen attempting to make jokes with the social media gurus as a way of trying to connect with them.

This comes after Biden, 81, greeted 2023 World Series baseball champions Texas Rangers at the White House last week, appearing to look incredibly lost towards the end of the event.

“All right, what am I doing now?" murmured the President after hob-nobbing with the baseball stars.

Biden was also gifted a personalised pair of cowboy boots and jersey however when an aide came over to take the items, Biden asked: "Are you stealing my jersey?"
