President Biden left his fifth granddaughter out of a speech Monday for Women’s History Month, where he talked about his “four granddaughters.”
Biden only publicly recognized 5-year-old Marine Joan Roberts last July, after spending four years hiding her identity.
Navy was born out of wedlock in 2018 to Hunter Biden and a stripper named Lunden Roberts.
During his speech at the White House, the proud grandfather explained how he envisions a “good future for all Americans,” including his granddaughters.
He said: “I see a future for all Americans, a future for my daughter and my four granddaughters – by the way, they are incredible.
Biden has five granddaughters, not four – the fifth being four-year-old Navy Joan Roberts.

“You should meet my granddaughters.” Oh, you think I’m joking. I’m not.’
Biden has repeatedly claimed he only has six grandchildren, completely ignoring Navy.
When Biden recognized the Navy last July, he issued a statement saying he wanted “what’s best” for the little girl.
At the time, he said, “Our son Hunter and Navy’s mother, Lunden, are working together to foster a relationship that is in the best interest of their daughter, preserving as much of her privacy going forward as possible.”
“It’s not a political issue, it’s a family matter.
“Jill and I only want what’s best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy.”
Last April, three months before recognizing the Navy, he spoke about his “six” grandchildren during a speech at the White House.
Hunter “never saw or contacted” the Navy, and the president and first lady Jill Biden “remain distant” from her, Lunden Roberts claimed in court papers filed last year in the alimony case for children.
Joe Biden’s other grandchildren are Naomi, 30, Finnegan, 23, and Maisy, 22, Hunter’s daughters with ex-wife Kathleen Buhle; Natalie, 19, and Robert, 17, the children of her late son Beau Biden and his wife Hallie; and Beau, 4, Hunter’s son with current wife Melissa Cohen.
This recent mistake may have been somewhat intentional, but there have been numerous incidents recently in which the president has shown signs of his memory deteriorating.
This month, during Biden’s congressional testimony, he couldn’t remember the year his eldest son Beau died.
In February, Biden appeared to forget Hamas’ name during a press conference as he stumbled his way through, calling it the “opposition.” A reporter has to tell him the name he’s looking for is “Hamas,” to which Biden responds, “Yes, I’m sorry.”

That same month, the commander in chief accidentally made a mistake and referred to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi as “the president of Mexico” during remarks about the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.
In November last year, at a pardon ceremony in Turkey, he strayed from the subject and talked about Taylor Swift and Britney Spears, mixing the two singers together.
Biden has always maintained his position that his memory is good.
