Many people would agree that right now, President Joe Biden is the king of public gaffes. Fumbling for names and numbers, delivering oddly worded statements, and general confusion abound.<\/p>\n

First Lady Jill Biden isn\u2019t as prone to such issues, but every now and then she falls on her face, too.<\/p>\n

And it happened just this week when she delivered a line that landed so flat, nobody made a peep.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On Thursday, FLOTUS was speaking at the Reagan Institute Summit of Education (RISE) in Washington, D.C. It \u201chosts education leaders from across the country\u201d and focuses on \u201ceducation reform.\u201d<\/p>\n

Biden decided to try a strong statement that didn\u2019t work, then had to ask the audience for applause.<\/p>\n

From Fox News:<\/p>\n

First lady Jill Biden\u00a0didn\u2019t get the reaction she was expecting Thursday when she delivered what she thought would be an applause line, only for her quip to fall flat, leading her to prod the audience to clap.<\/p>\n

\u2018I\u2019ve visited red states and blue states and I\u2019ve found that the common values that unite us are deeper than our divisions,\u2019 she said before taking a moment to pause.<\/p>\n

Upon receiving no reaction from the crowd, the first lady added, \u2018I thought you might clap for that.\u2019 The crowd promptly complied.<\/p>\n

Maybe the reason nobody reacted immediately is because the line is poorly worded and even if it\u2019s completely understood, not many agree.<\/p>\n

But it might have been swept under the rug and ignored if Biden hadn\u2019t asked for applause. Social media users pointed out that this reminded them of former GOP presidential candidate Jeb Bush asking people to \u201cplease clap\u201d during a 2016 campaign event.<\/p>\n

One Twitter user wrote: \u201cNobody clapped because they don\u2019t believe you.<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

Other users called the scene \u201cawkward\u201d and just plain embarrassing on a number of different levels. Democrats trying to show they\u2019re all for \u201cunity\u201d have difficulty getting everyone to believe it.<\/p>\n

Their actions don\u2019t seem to support this claim, and many critics say the left is simply dividing the country even further.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s arguably the single biggest issue that faces our nation today, and it\u2019s likely going to be a hot topic of debate during the 2024 presidential campaign.<\/p>\n

The First Lady trying to say our \u201ccommon values\u201d are strong fell flat because, in point of fact \u2014 the two sides have less in common than at any point in the country\u2019s history.<\/p>\n

Key Takeaways:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • First Lady Jill Biden delivered a line during a speech that was supposed to get applause. But the audience stayed silent.<\/li>\n
  • FLOTUS had to prompt the audience to applaud, which was an embarrassing and awkward scene.<\/li>\n
  • Critics maintain that America is more divided than ever and that Republicans and Democrats have little or no common values anymore.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
