Joe Biden used an interesting word choice today while offering his sympathies to the family of Joann Inc. CFO Matt Susz, who “passed away unexpectedly” yesterday according to an SEC filing.
Biden spoke to the CEO of the company, who was at the White House Thursday as he signed legislation he said would improve inflation at least on the margins.
After having some trouble getting out what he wanted to say, a clip shows that Biden finally settled on, “My sympathies to the family of your CFO, who dropped dead very unexpectedly, my best to their family, tough stuff.”
One Twitter user responded to the clip, “This is your president folks. Don’t blame me. I voted for Trump.”
This is your president folks. Don’t blame me. I voted for Trump.

While it is unclear if she had said it about this particular situation, another user shared a tweet from Lisa Marie Boothe where she asked, “Can you imagine all of the crazy sh*t Joe Biden says on calls with foreign leaders?”
