The “Biden Harris” combo surely entertained the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. The Warriors were invited to the White House as president Joe Biden wanted to congratulate the team for their title-winning efforts of the previous season.
At the event, Joe Biden commented on the team and their star performer Stephen Curry. The president made necessary sleek moves in the meeting as his predecessor, Donald Trump, when he was president, disapproved of Curry for not wanting to visit the White House. Biden as president cleared the White House’s image and highlighted the prestigious place as a welcoming location for teams and players.
However, the “Biden Harris” incident was clearly unnecessary, especially from the president himself, who created the awkward situation.
What did Joe Biden do that made the situation awkward?
In the formal meeting, Joe Biden went down on his knees and expected his Vice President Harris to do the same for clicking a photo with the Warriors team. However, Harris was laughing her way out and said, “I’m not doing that.”
