Joe Biden’s Visit to Duluth Raises Eyebrows with “Big Guy” Introduction and Confusing Remarks on Bipartisan Infrastructure Law
During his visit to Duluth, Minnesota, on Thursday, President Joe Biden’s appearance at a beer factory in Superior, Wisconsin, stirred some controversy. Governor Tony Evers introduced him as “the Big Guy,” a reference that has gained attention due to its association with the Hunter Biden laptop messages.
The choice of a brewery as a venue for Biden’s visit is questioned, with concerns about his speech delivery and an apparent struggle with words while discussing the bipartisan infrastructure law.

Biden’s attempt to emphasize the importance of the “bipartisan infrastructure law” was marred by stumbling over words, raising questions about his communication skills. The president’s speech included phrases like “bipartishan infrashrushure law,” adding to concerns about his ability to articulate key points.
In a moment that left many puzzled, Biden mentioned, “The beer brewed here…It is used to make the brewed beer [intelligible] Oh, Earth Rider. Thanks for the Great Lakes. I wonder why.” Despite the lack of clarity, the audience appeared to react positively, contributing to the overall confusion surrounding the event.

Biden continued to face challenges with coherence, referencing a “professor” and a “predecessor” in a manner that left the audience questioning the message. Critics argue that this adds to a pattern of unclear and confusing statements from the president.
While Biden touted the creation of “169 new jobs in Wisconsin” during his presidency, skepticism arose regarding the credibility of this claim. The president’s delivery, marked by increased shouting and screaming, raised further concerns about his overall demeanor.
