Amidst climbing a wobbly ladder, Biden addressed the audience, "Here's the bottom line. The world is currently a pretty scary place. Wars, shootings, climate change, and everything in the new Britney book." He humorously added, "I want to reassure everyone. Nothing puts people at ease like an 80-year-old man hanging Halloween decorations."
