As the 2024 US presidential election draws closer, two candidates are dominating the field. Former president Donald Trump is staking his claim to become president for a second time. Meanwhile, many Democrats are backing Joe Biden’s re-election. In the lead-up to the elections, everyone has had a take on what might happen, including the eldest son of former Governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

However, months after Patrick Schwarzenegger voiced his take on Joe Biden’s re-election, the POTUS made a bizarre comparison on stage. During his speech at the annual awards dinner of the Congressional Black Caucus, Biden made a bizarre physique comparison with an iconic rap star. So what did the president say, and what was Patrick Schwarzenegger’s take on his re-election?

A bizarre comparison or a compliment?

During his speech at the Congressional Black Caucus, President Biden talked about two of the “great artists of our time.” The 80-year-old mentioned two musicians, LL Cool J and MC Lyte. Joe Biden praised the artists for “representing the groundbreaking legacy of hip-hop in America.” LL Cool J and MC Lyte received the Phoenix Award for their contribution to music.

However, the president bizarrely compared an aspect of his physique with LL Cool J during his speech. President Biden slipped up and mispronounced the musician’s name. “LL J Cool J,” said Biden, going on to add, “That man’s got biceps bigger than my thighs.” Besides rapping, James Todd Smith, a.k.a LL Cool J, is also into bodybuilding.

Throughout his music career, the rapper has maintained a great physique. Hence, Biden’s comparison might have been an exaggerated compliment for the bodybuilding enthusiast. As the 2024 election campaign is underway, Biden’s comparison has created quite a buzz on the internet. However, bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son gave his verdict the moment Joe Biden announced his re-election campaign.

“I’d Actually Vote if He Could Run”: Despite the Constitutional Constraints, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Confession About Running for POTUS Gets Tremendous Response

“Respect the guy (Joe Biden) but cmon. This can’t happen,” Patrick Schwarzenegger wrote in his tweet. Unfortunately, despite having the desire, Arnold Schwarzenegger can’t run for president.

What’s preventing Arnold Schwarzenegger from running for president?

After conquering bodybuilding and Hollywood, Arnold Schwarzenegger stepped into politics. The seven-time Mr. Olympia became the 38th Governor of California in 2003. However, despite serving as the Governor for two terms and representing the Republican Party, Arnie cannot run for president.

While Arnold Schwarzenegger is a US citizen, he wasn’t born in the United States of America. The Austrian Oak immigrated to America in 1968, and unfortunately, despite his service to the nation, the constitution doesn’t allow someone born outside of the USA to become president. Schwarzenegger once said he “would have run for President in two seconds,” if he could.
