Biden Called 'Most Racist American President' After Seemingly Ignoring Black Woman In Viral Video [Watch]
Joe Biden received an intense backlash after he seemingly ignored a Black supporter.
A video of the U.S. President meeting and greeting some of his supporters went viral on X, formerly Twitter. In the clip, the POTUS can be seen taking selfies with his fans as a Black woman next to a white man is seen holding a "Biden Harris" campaign leaflet.
She smiles as she waits for Biden to approach her in the video. When the POTUS stands in front of her, she tries to give him a hug and warm smile, but it disappears when Biden seemingly goes straight to the white lady beside her. Biden also talks to the woman behind her and receives a hug.
The Black woman watches them and, at one point, taps Biden's shoulder, seemingly saying something. However, Biden doesn't respond and appears engrossed with the other woman.
The viral video, which has already received 30.7 million as of this writing, raised several eyebrows. Many called Biden "racist" for seemingly rejecting the Black lady.
"The moment she realized that her hero doesn't like black people," one wrote along with the clip.
"The most racist American President in modern history. And yet Black Americans will still vote for this man," another user commented.
"Racist Joe Biden rejects a selfie with the only Black girl in the crowd, but happily takes one with every White in the crowd," another wrote.
A different user opined, "Biden is as racist as it gets. This is how democrats view African Americans."
Meanwhile, some were not surprised by Biden's reaction to the Black woman, claiming he has always been racist.
"Biden said the n-word when in Congress fighting integration. He is a long time racist. Why would anyone of color vote for someone who hates them?" one asked.
"Biden has always been known to be a raging racist," another claimed.
"So very sad for this woman, but then again, the hard truth is Joe has always been this way," another unsurprised social media user said.
According to John Curtis, who was the first to share the video, the "smitten" Black girl was "rejected by Biden," who reportedly "stopped to take selfies with old angry white women."
He also claimed that Biden ignored the Black supporter twice. And she was allegedly "pulled from the back row and placed up front where cameras could see her." Curtis concluded that the woman was only used for the campaign.
"She was nothing more than a political stunt for Biden to gain appeal with black voters, and he ignored her," Curtis wrote.
Despite the criticisms Biden received, many of his supporters have remained solid.
"We as Americans are all Biden and Harris. We see ourselves in their fight for everyday people, the protection of our freedoms, the love of neighbors. They have competency beyond the orange mad man. We love Biden and Harris, and they will have a second term," one wrote.
Another added, "Ditto ... We love President Biden #StandWithBiden #WeBackBidenHarris."
"Thank you President Biden we love you dearly!!" someone else stated.
"I don't care who we run as long as they can WIN. We cannot afford to let Trump win again. I will support whomever we select. So far, it's looking like Biden & I have been happy with him. I hope people ignore the media & get onboard. Splitting the party helps only Trump & Proj 25!" a different user wrote.
"Go, Biden. You are the best. We love you, President Biden," another opined.
In related news, the 81-year-old politician recently made a gaffe in an interview on Philadelphia's WURD black radio station as part of an Independence Day media blitz on July 4. Biden called himself the "first black woman to serve with a black president," New York Post reported.
