Biden Stops Mid-Speech to Recognize San Diego Teen's Sign About His Stutter...
https://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/local/biden-stops-mid-speech-to-recognize-san-diego-teens-sign-about-his-stutter/3089213/
Amid a crowd of hundreds watching President Joe Biden speak at a North County campaign event for Rep. Mike Levin on Thursday, Jared Smith and his handwritten sign stood out. It read: Thank you for having a stutter.
About 20 minutes into the speech, President Biden noticed it, but couldnt read it.
"Ill catch you later, OK? Biden told Smith. I have no idea what it says. It has a small print on it.
"A woman nearby then jumped in and read it out loud."
Oh god love you, said President Biden."
I really wanted to thank him for working a thankless job and being an example of someone with a stutter or speech disability,
"Smith has a speech impediment."
***Meanwhile, tRump makes fun of people with speech issues. THAT is the difference of being a real man and being a bully.
