Giorgia Meloni Finds Herself Waiting on Late Joe Biden Again
Joe Biden’s chronic tardiness strikes again, this time leaving Italian PM Giorgia Meloni exasperated during a NATO summit in New York City. As the president’s delayed arrival stretched on, footage captured Meloni embodying the frustration felt by many as they watched the clock in anticipation.
Meloni’s eye rolls, gestures toward her watch, and general impatience perfectly encapsulated the sentiments of those left twiddling their thumbs due to Biden’s habitual lateness. It’s a scene that has sadly become all too familiar under the current administration.
This isn’t just about punctuality; it’s about respect on the global stage. America’s allies, like Meloni, are left unimpressed and waiting, while Biden’s reputation for being unreliable only grows. The optics of a world leader consistently showing up late to important gatherings speak volumes about the lack of regard for others’ time and schedules.
Even during the G7 meeting in Italy, Biden managed to keep Meloni waiting, further straining the already delicate relationship. His clumsy attempts at humor to defuse the situation only served to highlight his lack of consideration for those around him.

It’s not just about being fashionably late; it’s about the message it sends. Leaders such as Meloni are not only waiting on a tardy Biden but also grappling with a President whose foreign policy blunders and diminishing mental acuity are increasingly worrisome.
As Biden gears up for yet another event, one can’t help but wonder if his belated appearances will continue to define his presidency. The world watches as the leader of the free world struggles to keep time and earn the respect of his counterparts.
The stark contrast between a competent, punctual Meloni and a floundering, late Biden speaks volumes about the current state of affairs. The question remains: will America’s allies ever receive the prompt and professional leadership they deserve?
