Honest question: WTF is wrong with him? Did his campaign not even bother to Google the English lyrics of the song? Because. . .

But Biden’s plan to win Florida is even worse than relying on a raunchy Justin Bieber song. He’s trying the same failed attack that Dems tried in 2018:

As president, I'll support the island's full recovery and invest in its people and future.
