Biden’s Fumble: President Has Awkward Helmet Moment During Chiefs’ White House Visit

President Joe Biden’s meeting with the Kansas City Chiefs at the White House on Friday took an awkward turn when the president struggled to put on a team helmet at the insistence of some players, including Travis Kelce. The moment, reminiscent of Mike Dukakis’ infamous tank photo from his 1988 presidential campaign, has sparked comparisons and raised eyebrows.

In a video captured during the ceremony, Biden can be seen having trouble getting the helmet on, realizing he can’t do it with his aviators on, and finally managing to place the helmet over his head. He then pretends to catch a football pass, adding to the awkwardness of the situation.

The Chiefs were at the White House for a ceremony recognizing their 25-22 Super Bowl overtime victory against the San Francisco 49ers in February. During the event, Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, who recently ripped Biden over his pro-abortion stance during a commencement address at Benedictine College, was also in attendance.

Last year, Butker made headlines by wearing a pro-life tie and pin during the Chiefs’ 2023 White House ceremony. Despite the media-driven outrage over Butker’s recent unwoke speech, Chiefs coach Andy Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes have defended him as a man of strong character and faith, putting to rest speculation about potential locker room tension.

The helmet incident has drawn comparisons to Biden’s first campaign for president in 1988, which ended due to plagiarism allegations and exaggerations related to his academic record. It remains unclear whether Biden and Butker interacted during Friday’s ceremony.

It seems like President Biden’s attempt to be a team player with the Chiefs ended up being a real “helmet-scratcher” moment!
