A media advisory highlighting President Joe Biden's planned trip to Wisconsin this week erroneously listed the city of Duluth as part of Wisconsin rather than Minnesota.

"On Thursday, January 25th, the President will travel to Superior, Wisconsin to discuss how his Bidenomics and Investing in America Agenda are rebuilding our infrastructure, lowering costs, a spurring a small business boom, and creating good-paying jobs," it read. "The arrival at Duluth International Airport, Duluth, Wisconsin will be open press."

Duluth and its airport are situated in Minnesota. Superior, Wisc., however, is near the border with Minnesota and Duluth is not far on the other side.

The blunder drew quips from Republicans

GOP Rapid Response Director Jake Schneider reshared the release, stating "Dear [White House]: Duluth is in Minnesota, not Wisconsin."

"I didn't realize senility was contagious," one respondent commented, making an apparent reference to longstanding speculation about Biden's declining mental ability.
