Uncomfortable Presidential Moments That Were Caught On Camera

Jun 14 2022

In an era where just about everyone is carrying a video camera in their pocket, it's all but inevitable that some embarrassing thing you do in public will be caught on video. That risk has been around much longer for U.S. presidents, who have been under the media microscope pretty much ever since televised news has existed.

So embarrassing things presidents have done over the last century or so haven't just been caught on video. They've also been broadcast to the world, and played on repeat. Odds are you've seen at least some of these uncomfortable presidential moments that were caught on camera.
