Joe Biden aimlessly wandered towards computers shortly after discussing the impact of Hurricane Ian at the FEMA Headquarters today and ignored FEMA administrator Deanne Criswell, who failed to guide the confused president in the correct direction.
After it was apparent that Biden was ignoring Criswell and Homeland Security Chief Alejandro Mayorkas, and aimlessly wandering towards the computers, the president appeared to momentarily realize he was not where he should be.
Promptly, Biden then appeared to make a last-second attempt at alleviating the awkward situation by shaking the hands of nearby FEMA employees.

During his remarks, Biden said that Hurricane Ian “could be the deadliest hurricane in Florida’s history.”
“The numbers are still unclear, but we are hearing early reports of what may be substantial loss of life,” he said during his visit to FEMA.
During a speech at the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health, Joe Biden appeared to search for Representative Jackie Walorski in the audience, despite the Indiana congresswoman having passed away at the start of August – leaving many questioning the president’s cognitive function.
“I want to thank all of you here, including bipartisan elected officials like Rep. McGovern, Sen. Braun, Sen. Booker, Rep. – Jackie, are you here?” Biden said. “Where’s Jackie? I thought she was going to be here – to help make this a reality.”
