President Biden has used this phrase several times in the past
President Biden mumbling about an alleged scene from a John Wayne movie to attack climate deniers as “lying, dog-faced pony soldiers” threw off many social media users watching his speech in Vietnam.
Biden spoke at the Group of 20 leaders’ summit during a press conference in Hanoi on Sunday. During the conference, AFP White House Correspondent Aurelia End questioned the president about the lack of a consensus on fossil fuels at the summit. After appearing to ramble for several minutes, Biden then referenced the western film actor to attack climate change critics.
“My brother was having famous lines from these movies that he always quotes, you know, and one of them is there’s a movie about John Wayne as an Indian scout, and they’re trying to get I think it was the patch and one of the great tribes of America back on the reservation, and he’s standing with a union, so he’s… they’re all on their… they’re on their horses and their saddles and there’s three or four Indians and headdresses and the Union soldiers are basically saying to the Indians, ‘Come with me, we’ll take care of you. We’ll — everything will be good,’” Biden said.
Neither does he!
