President Joe Biden’s closing remarks during his speech at the National Safer Communities Summit in Connecticut on Friday caused a wave of confusion among the audience and sparked renewed questions about his mental capacities.
Speaking to gun safety advocates and survivors of gun violence at the University of Hartford, Biden concluded his address with the peculiar phrase, “Alright? God save the Queen, man.” Shortly after, “God Save The Queen” started trending on Twitter, with many expressing their bewilderment and pointing out the latest instance of Biden’s obviously declining cognitive health.
Had Biden made a reference to Queen Elizabeth II, Britain’s monarch who passed away last September? Yes, he absolutely had.
Todd Gillman, the White House correspondent for The Dallas Morning News, was present at Biden’s speech and, like others in the press pool, struggled to comprehend the intent behind the remark.
“Several of you have asked me why he might have said that,” Gillman shared on Friday. “I have no idea. Other poolers likewise have no idea.”

It was probably intended as something along the lines of “May God save us all”, which makes sense goven the context.
There are plenty of queens in the world, maybe he meant his own queen Jill
But you gotta give it to the guy how smooth he points his fingers front, and then backwards, and then he he does that little jog, and head’s straight to get his pampers changed.
G-d save the queen
If the 25th ammendment isn’t for this, then what’s it for ?????
There is only one reason why anybody voted for Biden. To keep Trump out the office. And Biden is doing his ‘job’ admirably.
People gotta remember that we don’t vote for a President as a reward for his good behavior.
We vote for who is goin’ to do the best for the country. So even though Trump is often downright nasty, ungrateful and very egocentric, (undeserving of any rewards for moral behaviour) we still ought to vote for him. Not for his sake, but for ours.
And the confusion where to go afterwards…
It was a sarcastic saying to “hold your guns” because that is what they did for the queen
This speech was not in Congress
Maybe he means that she be spared further gehinom. She didn’t have much admiration for Jews and she wasn’t quite a friend of Isreal – nor overtlty foe either – though she had never once visited.
He had in mind Hunter…
I feel very guilty; I was crying from laughter for five minutes straight after reading @Yeps’s post above… so hilariously well-written.
I felt guilty not because the comment was irreverent, but because the comment pokes fun at an old and sick man struggling with severe dementia who is being publicly used by his cruel wife, kids and political party. It’s so sad and infuriating that such very public abuse of an old man is permitted to continue unabated.
I guess you can make an argument that this falls under kol hameracheim, etc., but that’s a long shot….
Very sad. I really feel bad for him.
G-d save the United States from Biden and the Marxists.
@GotAGoodPoint
Well put!
ANd @yeps, you should become a badchen! you brought it out in such a hilarious way!!!
hahahahahahaha
I think i’ve worked it out:
Since Biden somehow thinks he’s in the year 2020 (when the queen was still alive), he’s singing G-D save the queen. is it because he recently visited Ireland, and somehow seems to think that he’s a British citizen, forgetting he’s actually president of the USA…..?
