Biden bites baby dressed as chicken at Halloween event
U.S. President Joe Biden playfully bit a stable of adorable, dressed-up tots during a Halloween celebration at the White House on Wednesday night, the New York Post reported.
In a series of awkward interactions, Biden, 81, pretended to chomp down on infant after infant — including a child dressed up as a chicken.
The baby giggled in response to the commander-in-chief nibbling on their thigh just as the theme song for “Jaws” began to play, according to video of the celebration.
The baby’s mom also didn’t seem to mind — as she and the Democrat made small talk afterward.
Around the same time, the GOP nominee, former President Donald Trump, sat in a garbage truck and later gave a speech wearing an orange safety vest a week before he looks to retake the White House against Vice President Kamala Harris.
During the Halloween fun, Biden also bit a baby’s arm and another infant’s foot in jest while kissing a handful of other little ones who were carried by their parents.
“Remember when Joe Biden’s dog Major bit people at the White House at least 24 times. Maybe he learned it from his owner,” another social media user snarked, referring to the first family’s German shepherd, who repeatedly bit White House staff.
The White House hosts trick-or-treaters for Halloween every year, and this is Biden’s last before he leaves office in January.
The president, who has faced relentless questions about his mental acuity, is no stranger to pulling off bizarre and at-times cringey behavior.
