EVIAN, FRANCE — Years after wandering away from a G7 summit, a confused former President Joe Biden was seen wandering back into the G7 meeting in France this week.
A gathering of top world leaders was in the middle of a high-stakes debate on global trade when the doors swung open to the conference room, and Biden walked in, seemingly unaware of where he was. The former president strolled past security, flashed a warm smile, and asked French President Manuel Macron if he knew where they kept the chocolate-dipped cones.
"He just walked right up to the podium," said an anonymous German diplomat. "We were all trying to figure out if someone else invited him. Then he started telling a passionate story about a lifeguard named Corn Pop. It was honestly pretty entertaining. Of course, it was totally nonsensical, but entertaining nonetheless."
Staff members at the global summit quickly scrambled to accommodate the unexpected arrival, gently guiding a confused Joe Biden to an empty seat at the round table and giving him a fresh notepad and a box of crayons.
"Hey, good to you see, Manual? Take any more right hooks from the ol' lady? Ha! So what's on the agenda, fellas?" asked Biden, before turning to spot Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. "Whoa, who let the broad in here? Guess that's how you do things in Europe. Hey lady! Did I ever tell you about the time I let the young boy rub the hair on my leg in the pool? It looked like seaweed. Whatsdetbghrrrbtgherphhhhhrg."
At publishing time, Biden had settled in and appeared content with the arrangement, nodding along with the international delegates while drawing a nice little sailboat on his pad of paper.
