THIS is the bizarre moment Joe Biden started his farewell speech before being told to stop in his first post-president gaffe. The former president also asked which way he should exit the stage as he appeared clueless on stage following the handover of power to Trump.

Biden's presidency was marked by senior moments as the 82-year-old made weird comments, walked in the wrong direction, and mixed up names. After taking the stage at Joint Base Andrews on Monday, Biden leaned into the microphone to begin his speech as the music wound down.

But the music was just slowing down to change - with the band beginning the Star Spangled banner. With Biden having to walk away from the mic when he recognised the first few notes playing. After the American national anthem played Biden addressed the waiting members of his administration.

The former president said: "I'm deeply moved by all we all did for this country. I really mean it. "It's been the honour of my life to serve as your president. "We got a lot more to do," he says, adding that while he is leaving office he is not "leaving the flight".

After finishing his speech, Biden seemed to look confused as he turned his head right before asking: "Can I walk this way?" . He then started to look off the stage before finally leaving the hall as fans shouted "please stop". "Folks, I came to thank you. You know, I don't think we couldn't have done anything we did without you," Biden told supporters, before he acknowledged Harris, her husband Doug Emhoff, and his cabinet members.
