President Joe Biden may no longer be on the campaign trail, but that's not stopping him from acting weird during White House ceremonies.
The White House hosted the Texas Rangers on Thursday to celebrate the team's World Series victory, where Biden treated them to dad jokes, misplaced compliments and an awkward atmosphere.
At one point, Biden pointed to pitcher Nathan Eovaldi's sharp blue suit, briefly returning the word “haberdashery” but appearing to use it incorrectly.
“Your outstanding pitcher Nathan, where are you Nathan? And by the way, I want to know who the hell did his haberdashery. I like his men's suit, I tell you. It looks good, Nathan,” said the president.

A haberdashery is a person who makes and/or sells men's clothing.
At another point, the president mentioned that he was actually a fan of the Rangers' rivals, the Philadelphia Phillies, because of his wife, first lady Jill Biden.
“I want the record to show that I have some ability to say nice things because I married a girl from Philly. Philly fans are tough anyway. And if I didn't root for the Phillies, I'd be sleeping alone ”, he joked.
♥️ Gotta love President Joe Biden!

The team presented Biden with a custom “46” T-shirt as well as cowboy boots, which he joked would give him “another two inches,” after which he awkwardly asked, “Okay, what am I doing now ?” before leaving the event.
