Joe Biden’s humiliation on the world stage continues.
After being ousted by his own party in a coup that ended in blistering defeat, Biden is spending his last days as a lame-duck President trying to secure a few moments of respect on his way out the door.
Unfortunately for him, that did not occur during the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) conference’s annual family photo.
While Chinese President Xi Jinping was honored with a position in the front row next to Lima’s President Dina Boluarteront, where the conference is being held, Biden was tucked in the back corner.
The petty humiliation of America’s leader comes ahead of his Saturday afternoon meeting with Xi — who has been feted with relative pomp throughout the event as thanks for his country’s financing of a large new port on Peru’s coast.
Biden, 81, whose increasing irrelevance domestically and on the world stage has earned him the moniker of “super lame duck,” arrived last to the family photo before taking his pre-decided position between the fellow back-row leaders of Thailand and Vietnam.
The order of world leaders was alphabetical by country — though a review of past APEC family photos shows national positions aren’t fixed, with then-President Donald Trump taking a center spot in a pair of family photos in 2017 for the APEC summit in Vietnam, the only such gathering he attended.
