Political Commentator Brandon Tatum has accused US President Joe Biden of “spitting in the face” of the American black community, following his most recent gaffe at The White House.
The 81-year-old Potus appeared to freeze at the annual Juneteenth concert event at his residency, where the large crowds were enjoying a live music set.
Biden was noticeably still during the event, but Vice President Kamala Harris was seen actively dancing next to him.
Brother of the late George Floyd, Philonise, offered the President a helping hand as he was seen wrapping an arm around him during the incident.

Reacting to Biden’s behaviour at the event, Tatum scolded the US leader and claimed the President is “circling the drain” when it comes to his “mental health and physical ability”.
Tatum told GBNA host Patrick Christys: “It’s shameful, because what they’re doing is they’re pandering Joe Biden in front of the black community.
“He’s at an event of gospel music, which black people celebrate to no end, and he’s stiff as an ironing board.”
Slamming the President apparent decline in his physical and mental health, Tatum added: “He’s off beat, he’s stiff, he’s drinking some concoction that nobody knows what it is during the celebration.

“He’s not clapping, he’s not singing, he don’t have an idea about any of the songs – they should not have him there.”

When asked by Patrick if Biden’s actions at the event are being perceived as “offensive” to the black community in America, Tatum agreed, and lambasted the President’s behaviour.
Tatum raged: “It’s absolutely ridiculous, it’s spitting in the face of the black community. Don’t bring a man to a gospel music event when the man doesn’t know the words. He can’t even clap on beat. He looked like he’s halfway asleep.
“Don’t disrespect the gospel singer, the performer. Don’t disrespect the culture in the tradition with a guy who don’t know where he’s at. If anything, he should have been sitting at home Skyping in or something and waving to the crowd and saying, hey, I wish I could be there, but I have no idea what’s going on at this event and I just look like a clown.”
Patrick shared his thoughts on Biden’s latest mishap and argued that Biden being made to attend such events is “elder abuse” and there’s “a duty of care for this man and that actually isn’t being delivered”.

Noting the upcoming leadership election in November between Joe Biden and Donald Trump, Tatum claimed that Trump is “winning the black vote” by “siphoning away a lot of the black vote from Joe Biden”.
Tatum explained: “Biden has been a corrupt politician for 40 years. They get out every election season to say what they’re going to do for America, but they’ve been in there forever and they’ve done nothing.
“And Joe Biden is ruining our country by with open borders – the economy is going to cr*p. He’s half dead everywhere he’s going.
“He’s a terrible example of America. He shows up on D-Day and falls asleep. There’s wars all around the world because America is lacking the visibility of strength and also the manifestation of strength.”
