WATCH: President Biden Can't Help But Call Satchel Paige 'The Great Negro' Of Baseball

President Joe Biden's go-to speech to soften up the crowds has been a retelling of legendary baseball pitcher Satchel Paige's perspective on the longevity of his career — an all-timer that pitched well into his 40s.

Biden has rinsed and reused the tale on several occasions, but the latest iteration of the story caught the president using some outdated language deemed cancelable by the modern media's standards.

During a Veterans Day speech delivered at the Arlington National Cemetery, the president went down a rabbit hole on the revered Paige, considered by Biden as "the great Negro" of baseball, per his description and narration.

After allowing the awkward gaffe to draw confused looks from the crowd, Biden tried to brush off his use of the politically incorrect term (despite using it again) knowing it was probably in his research packet that morning to stray from using language championed by deceased friend of Biden's and KKK member, Robert Byrd.

As with many of the PC standards set by the left, Democrats repeatedly prove to be the worst violators.

Biden's fascination with Satchel Paige first drew people's attention during the president's trip to the Vatican. Live coverage caught Biden's bizarre interaction with Pope Francis as the commander in chief attempted to tell his trusty Paige story.

WATCH:

The Boston Herald's Peter Lucas saw Biden's cognitive lapse at the Vatican as a call to open up a candid conversation on the president's mental state.

"Biden has clearly slowed down both mentally and physically," Lucas shared. "He mumbles and meanders, forgets names, forgets what he is talking about and repeats and embellishes questionable old stories."
