A viral video shows former President Bill Clinton being mistaken for President Joe Biden by an employee at a Georgia McDonald's restaurant.
Clinton was campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris when he made a stop at the fast food restaurant, according to his Deputy Chief of Staff Angel Ureña.
"You Joe? Mr. Joe?" the employee asked, mistaking him for President Biden.
Clinton then extends his hand and introduces himself to the woman, who excitedly asks for a photo upon realizing who he actually was.
"This is Bill, y'all," she said while posing with Clinton.
Ureña referenced Clinton's love of McDonald's while sharing the clip, calling it his "old stomping grounds." The former president famously stopped by a McDonald's restaurant while flanked by Secret Service after a jog in the 1992.
