President Joe Biden got a bit tongue-tied while addressing the crowd at the Wednesday, June 14, League of Conservation Voters annual Capital Dinner in Washington, D.C.

It was during that same even that social media mocked the POTUS' plan "to build a railroad from the Pacific all the way across the Indian Ocean."

Biden is well aware of the fact that voters consider his age a setback, but he insisted it isn't an issue.

"With regard to age, I can't even say I guess how old I am, I can't even say the number," the commander-in-chief expressed at an April press conference. "It doesn't register with me."

He's already received support from several colleagues, including Gavin Newsom, who stated in a recent interview, "I’m rooting for our president."

"I have great confidence in his leadership," added the Governor of California. "I know he’s capable. I see results … real results.
