Biden's Press Conference! - BFritz21 - 08-26-2021
He just said "I was instructed to call on.........."
Do his handlers not tell him that he shouldn't make it so obvious that this was all set up beforehand or is he just so out of it that he forgets?!
RE: Biden's Press Conference! - BFritz21 - 08-26-2021
And now he's blaming Trump for everything.

I don't know if it's refreshing or funny seeing Joe not care to put on the charade when we all know that every single press secretary advises the president on who to call on for a softball.

There you go again. Making a claim with no evidence.
I'm pretty sure the media usually tried to trap Trump and he called on people at will.

Brad, it's true. His "handlers" never allow him to field any actual, tough questions.

Jen Psaki takes a lot more questions and makes a lot more public addresses than Biden does.

Almost as if that's her job and he's got other things to do that don't involve rage tweeting and pounding hamberders and diet Cokes.

What else has he been doing? Shouldn't his focus be on this crisis?

You know that he has meetings behind closed doors with military and intelligence commanders, right? What makes you think he's not handling (botching) it? Not everything the president does has - or even should - be in the public eye (for security purposes depending on the task at hand).
You don't hire someone to deal with the press if you're going to be doing all of it yourself.

I have to say, I got a legitimate laugh out of this response. Well played.

That might be believable if he weren't showing signs of dementia and staying out of the public eye. If he were doing all that, we'd be hearing about it.
He just pulled out of Afganistan, so what's he meeting with military commanders about?

The important stuff: Ibram X. Kendi being required reading for special ops, maternity fatigues for infantry, and transgender pizza parties for recruiting stations.

Luckily we have a crack reporter to let us know when Biden has a runny nose. You just gonna' let him off for lying about an 18 wheeler? I think I saw a spot on his suit Brad. Better start a thread.

It is interesting. This sort of thing was an open secret. Those with a modicum of understanding of how these things work knew that when a POTUS goes in front of the press, they do so being given instructions by their comms team on who to call on and what not. It's almost like because the prior administration just abandoned all norms, this administration feels like being open about things that weren't really out in the open but weren't really secret is a good way to go.

Actually we wouldn't. Much of the minutia of the presidential branch doesn't get reported on when the PotUS isn't a raving lunatic, despite what the last 4 years have shown us.
Oh I don't know Brad - maybe the fact that some Americans were killed at Kabul's airport yesterday. But you're right - I'm sure a response to that wouldn't involve ANYONE from the military.
RE: Biden's Press Conference! - BengalHawk62 - 08-27-2021
OMG! OMG! OMG!!! The President just took a dump in the Lincoln's Room restroom instead of the West Wing's restroom. Oh the Horror! Oh the monstrosity that is this current POTUS. How dare he defecate on such an historical privy.
And rumors are swirling he had to flush twice....Faux News is sending in a correspondent to verify the these latest rumors. Stay tuned for more details.

It is funny to watch the reactions to Brad posting every little thing about Biden.

It is funnier watching people be so delusional that they defend a man with clear dementia.

Brad, I've taught government for over a decade. Somethings are just common knowledge. This isn't a "claim" that needs "evidence". This is literally just how every single administration functions.

Ok, so you've taught government for over a decade and when has it ever been obvious that this situation has occurred under any other President?
