Fox News host Jeanine Pirro on Thursday shared a deceptive video of President Joe Biden at a D-Day ceremony in Normandy, France, calling his actions embarrassing.

But it is the former judge who should be embarrassed. The edited clip was posted by a Trump campaign and RNC-backed X account it had conservatives mocking Biden over nothing. And that included Pirro in a misguided right-wing attempt to prove that the president is unfit for office.

RNC Researchs clip showed Biden shaking hands with French President Emmanuel Macron and beginning to sit as Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is called to be the next speaker. But the video is strategically cut to make it appear as if Biden were trying to sit without a chair. Awkward, the caption read with a gritted-teeth emoji.

Biden critics on social media jumped to cast the video as another sign of his decline, none more so than Pirro.

THIS is the man representing us. THIS is how we are being perceived as a nation. Our commander-and-chief trying to sit in an imaginary chair on stage in front of the entire world, Pirro, a panelist on The Five, wrote on X in a post that now seems deleted but was screen-captured by Mediaite . Lights on, but Bidens not home. Embarrassing is an understatement.THERE IS NO CHAIR
