Former President Barrack Obama escorted Joe Biden off stage on Saturday after he froze up and appeared bewildered while attending a fundraiser with Hollywood elites.
The incident occurred after Biden and his “old boss” sat for an interview with Jimmy Kimmel at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles.
After standing up to the sound of applause, Biden suddenly froze as he gazed into space for around 10 seconds.
Obama could be seen taking hold of Biden’s wrist before leading him off stage like a nursing home carer.
As the pair exited the stage, Obama kept his hand around Biden’s shoulder to ensure he didn’t wander off in the wrong direction.
Watch
The reactions on X were as expected and didn’t disappoint:
Obama literally looks like he's walking a trained pet dementia dog.

The incident came just days after Biden wandered off during a meeting with world leaders at the G7 summit in Italy.
As we reported last week, Biden suddenly wandered away during a photo op at the G7 meeting in Italy, prompting Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to retrieve him and remind him what was happening.

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni was seen grabbing Biden to bring him back to the group.

In another incident, Biden froze during a Juneteenth celebration at the White House. He appeared to stand completely stiff as others around him clapped and danced to singer Kirk Franklin.

In May, Biden also confused the timing of the COVID-19 pandemic, saying, “And when I was vice president, things were kind of bad during the pandemic, and, what happened was Barack said to me: ‘Go to Detroit — and help fix it.'”
