Tells Irish Crowd …
Let’s Get After It & ‘Lick the World’

President Biden either had another gaffe in Ireland this past week — or he really wants to stick to the rest of the world … or, lick it, rather.
During the final days of his international trip to Ireland, Joe delivered remarks at a banquet dinner in front of state officials — and toward the end of his speech … he made a somewhat bizarre request in trying to reaffirm the U.S. and Ireland’s commitment to each other.
Here’s what he said … “There’s nothing, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart — there’s nothing our nations can’t achieve if we do it together. I really mean it.”
Then, the strange line … “So, thank you all. God bless you all. And let’s go — let’s go la- — lick the world. Let’s get it done. Thank you.” As you can hear (and see), it seems like JB got a little tongue-tied on that final part … frankly, it’s unclear what he was trying to say.
Of course, some are clowning Biden over this … either by pointing out that he apparently misspoke … or facetiously crying foul that Prez is advocating for people to go around licking things in a post-pandemic world, which he clearly was not doing. It was just a slipup.
If anything … we should all follow Joe’s lead and keep our licks to the ice cream.
