During his visit to Florida on Wednesday to see the damage caused by Hurricane Ian, the president dropped an f-bomb during a chat with a local mayor when he didn't know he was being recorded. A camera caught Biden's expletive, and the footage has been making the rounds on social media.

"You were raised like me, no one f***s with a Biden," Biden told Ray Murphy, Mayor of the Floridian town of Fort Myers Beach.
Meeting with DeSantis
President Biden was in Florida visiting the areas affected by Hurricane Ian, which killed more than 100 people. While in the state, he met with Governor Ron DeSantis, Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott, as well as Congressman Byron Donalds, all Republicans:
We're here today with Gov. DeSantis and Sen. [Marco] Rubio, R-Fla., and Sen. [Rick} Scott, R-Fla., and Congressman [Rep. Byron] Donalds, R-Fla. You know, today we have one job and only one job, and that's to make sure the people of Florida get everything that they need to fully, thoroughly recover.
The damage caused by Ian will take time to repair, according to the president. He applauded the cooperation between the different administrations:
We're one of the few nations in the world that — on a basis of the crisis we face, we're the only nation that comes out of it better than we went into it. And that's what we're going to do this time around: Come out of it better. Because we're — this is the United States of America, and I emphasize 'united.' We've seen extraordinary cooperation at every level of government, as the governor has said. And the cooperation began before the storm hit. The number one priority was saving lives.
