Biden meant to refer to Obama, under whom he served for eight years as vice president, when describing his role in auto-industry bailouts in 2009.
“In 2009, during the so-called Great Recession, the president asked me to be in charge of managing that piece — then-President Trump,” Biden misstated during a speech near Allentown, Pa.
“Excuse me, Freudian slip, that was the last president. He caused — anyway, President Obama, when I was vice president. The American auto industry, remember, was on the rocks?”
A Freudian slip refers to someone accidentally revealing their inner feelings when they didn’t intend to do so. It’s unclear, however, why Biden had Trump on his mind.

1] I see how he could confuse the two given how similar they are in temperment, personality, outlook, physical appearance etc. etc.
2] It has now been revealed that deep deep deep down - Biden wishes he had been VP under Trump.
WOW!! Thank you Sigi Freud!!!
