Comment (by boldwater):

 A single left click on an embedded image in the visual editor should
 select the image and show the alignment tools and edit icon in a toolbar
 as well as the resize handles.

 What I experience here is that when clicking on an image the cursor
 indicator moves next to the image and the image is not selected. Console
 generates the error noted by OP. And as the OP indicated if I click-hold
 and then wiggle the mouse around on the image a bit the image does become
 selected.

 I have tried in private windows, restarted my computer, disabled all
 extensions, and forced a cache clear.  I manage over a hundred wordpress
 sites so I checked this behavior on several of them, and the error is the
 same.

 I tried in Safari and the selection works as expected.

 It seems specific to Chrome (possibly to Beta) as it was updated on the
 31st and the selection function worked last week. I just installed todays
 Beta release and the issue persists.
