WATCH: Biden Humiliates Himself On The World Stage During D-Day Ceremony - 'Incompetence And Weakness'

On Thursday, global leaders gathered in Normandy, France, for the 80th anniversary of the D-Day invasion to honor the World War II veterans that served their countries and freed Europe of Nazism. Among those global leaders was President Joe Biden, who, unlike the elderly veterans in attendance, could not get through the ceremony without embarrassing himself.

The 81-year-old president, joined by French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, was seen attempting to sit in an invisible chair while he was standing with First Lady Jill Biden and his French counterpart. The elderly Democrat was also whisked away by his wife following a brief speech while a youthful Emmanuel Macron shook hands and spoke with veterans.

"Is there ever a time when Americans realize just how much of an embarrassment this is on a world stage?" Donald Trump Jr. asked in a post on X. "Does this kind of incompetence and weakness encourage our enemies to act the way they've been acting? Of course it does!"

Biden was joined in France by a number of congressional leaders including former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), House Minority Leader Hakeem Jefferies (D-NY), House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), and others. Biden met with American veterans before the ceremony to give them commemorate coins and thank them for their service.

Biden's speech to those in attendance at the ceremony focused largely on the men who braved the beaches to free the continent from tyranny. "What the allies did here 80 years ago far surpassed anything we could have done on our own. Together, we won the war," Biden said with the assistance of a teleprompter. "The men who fought here became heroes — given an audacious mission, knowing the probability of dying was real. But they did it anyway, knowing without a doubt there are things worth fighting and dying for. Freedom, worth it. Democracy worth it. America worth it. Then, now, and always."

"The men who fought here became heroes, not because they were the strongest, our toughest or fiercest, although they were, but because they were given an audacious mission, knowing, every one of them knew, the probability of dying was real," he added. "But they did it anyway. They knew, beyond any doubt, there are things that are worth fighting and dying for. Freedom is worth it. Democracy is worth it. America is worth it. The world is worth it. Then, now, and always." 

While Biden was able to get through a prepared speech without a significant mistake, his age continues to take a toll on his daily performance, and the contrast between him and the youthful Macron is stark. While Biden shuffled away from the ceremony, the French president was seen jogging over to veterans to shake their hands and kiss their cheeks. It is clear that Biden isn't up to the task of even the everyday, simple niceties of the presidency, and it should be a warning to all Americans at the ballot box in November.
