Biden, 81, is seen shuffling out of Delaware clothes shop during Memorial Day weekend trip home

Joe Biden was seen leaving after clothes shopping at his Delaware home, while the president was seen at his usual weekend retreat for the Memorial Day holiday.

Biden, at the age of 81 the oldest president in American history, was seen slowly emerging from a Jos. A. Bank in Greenville shuffling with a bag in his hand and accompanied by several Secret Service agents.

The president donned his famous aviator sunglasses before getting back into his vehicle.

Greenville is a short drive from Wilmington, where the Biden family compound is located.

Biden is infamous for choosing his weekends in his home state over Washington or Camp David during his presidency.

It was a busy day for the president as he delivered the speech earlier Saturday at the Military Academy at West Point in New York.

Biden was accused of repeating a long-running lie that he had been appointed to a Naval Academy in 1965.

The president delivered the commencement address at the Military Academy at West Point, New York, as he delivered the remarks before 1,036 cadets.

During the ceremony, Biden told the crowd of graduates that he had been “appointed” to the Naval Academy.

Biden said, “I was appointed to the Naval Academy by a guy I ran against at the age of 29. I was one of ten, I wanted to play football.

“The day I was supposed to go down for the job interview, there was a classmate of mine who was also one of the ten assigned to choose from.”

Biden continued, “He came to pick me up, I found out two days earlier that they had a quarterback named Roger Staubach and a halfback named Joe Bellino. I said, oh, I’m not going there, I went to Delaware.’

Biden had previously made the same claim when he addressed 2022 graduates of the US Naval Academy.

Biden said Sen. J. Caleb Boggs of Delaware, whom he confronted in 1972, had tried to get him into the Annapolis school seven years earlier.

The New York Post reported at the time that curators at the Delaware Historical Association were going “box by box” to search for Academy nominations.

Chief curator Leigh Rifenburg had told the newspaper that the president’s claim was “unlikely.”

Also during his speech on Saturday, the president faltered through one sentence when talking about Putin and NATO.

He said: ‘Putin was sure that NATO would fall apart right after I was sworn in. We have talked about this issue.

“The fall, he made a draw, that fall he decided, look, I probably shouldn’t go into this. But it does make me a little excited.”

Gaffes aside, the president used his speech to emphasize the critical role of U.S. support for allies around the world, including Israel, Ukraine and the Indo-Pacific.

Biden described U.S. soldiers as “working around the clock” to support Ukraine in its effort to fend off a two-year Russian invasion, but reiterated his pledge to keep them off the front lines.

“We stand strong with Ukraine and we will stand with them,” Biden told the crowd to loud applause.

He also highlighted the US role in repelling Iranian missile attacks on Israel and supporting allies in the Indo-Pacific against rising Chinese militarism in the region.

“Thanks to America’s armed forces, we are doing what only America can do as the indispensable nation, the world’s only superpower,” Biden said.

As vice president, he twice addressed a graduating class of cadets at the academy, about 40 miles north of New York City, but this was his first time as president.

Donald Trump, Biden’s Republican challenger in the 2024 election, was the last president to speak at a commencement at West Point in 2020.

The weekend comes after another tough week of headlines for the president as he tries to win a second term.

Much of the news came from Republicans who had supported the president in 2020, saying Biden was losing their support this time.

Republican Gov. Chris Sununu predicts that Biden’s $167 billion student loan forgiveness plan will actually come back to bite him.

Just this week, Biden canceled another $7.7 billion for 160,000 Americans in an effort that critics see as an attempt to “buy votes” ahead of the 2024 election.

But Sununu tells DailyMail.com in an exclusive sit-down interview this week that no debts are actually being wiped out.

He says Biden’s “26-year-old progressive socialist” advisers, who are “very passionate politically” but have “no brains in their heads about what is actually happening in America with inflation,” are to blame.

“Biden goes out and even throws gasoline on the fire. And then brag about it,” and it costs him the election, Sununu tells DailyMail.com.

Meanwhile, Christopher Shays, a former GOP congressman from Connecticut who voted for Biden in 2020, now says it’s “unlikely” he’ll make another run for president in November.

He asked, “Many of us are struggling with the question: How can we support him when he has gone so far to the left?”

Shays, who served in the House of Representatives from 1987 to 2009, is now considering running for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to vote.

According to a New York Times report, Shays shares the sentiments of many Republicans who voted for Biden in 2020, saying they felt largely ignored by his time in office.

The latest blow to Biden’s efforts to court the Republican party: Nikki Haley’s admission that she will vote for Trump.

A series of recent polls have shown Trump at or ahead of Biden in the swing states he won in 2020.

And according to a New York Times survey this month, Biden is trailing Trump in five of the six crucial battleground states.
