I get why they haven’t had a press conference until now. I am angry. I think collectively we’re all angry and this was just a reminder of how many times they’ve spit in our faces and laughed. Here you see a president who deserves no respect, get the utmost respect given to him. It’s a reminder that our president couldn’t get two words in without being constantly interrupted and treated like shit.
Here’s a guy that can do things like stumble on his thoughts and go “oh, whoops, um... where was I, uhhh...” and the media goes Awwww. When our president lifts a water bottle up to his mouth funny or stares at the eclipse without glasses and the whole news world has a shitfit about how he’s unfit for office.
On illegal border crossings he had the audacity to say “They’re coming because I’m a nice guy, I’m a nice president”... no, they’re coming because (and you can choose both for all I care) A. Child trafficking or B. You’re the pushover everyone’s fine with stepping over.
They haven’t had press conferences because of the same reason people that know people know they cheated don’t like the spotlight, because it’s awkward, they know they shouldn’t be there. Their body language and demeanor reek of it and it angers people and it reminds people of what they had, what they had taken from them and what they want back. It ignites people and should hopefullly draw more people out of the woodwork to speak up that may have had their voices muted over the first couple months of this disaster.
I’m off the soapbox, apologies for the rant, hope everyone has a great weekend.
Yeah that is awful, it's for the daily press briefings though, not really a slam dunk.
If the reporters outed them for asking for briefing questions ahead of time, why not expose them for asking for press conference questions if that's what happened? Why even out them at all if they're on the same side? Shit's complicated
I posted the wrong link, indeed. I don’t have time to research the right one, but once again, you just have to watch the press conference to know that it was planned. Watch the part where Biden is asked about guns and gives an answer on schools and water fountains. Not only did he have the questions and answers handed in ahead of time, but actually managed to screw up in spite of this.
You have to do your own research. No one here has all of the answers. And to your question about why not expose them, you must be kidding right? You want Fake News who asks you about Biden’s favorite ice cream flavor to out that senile old man they adore?
Didn't they do so in the article you shared though?
Anyway, if I were a betting man, I would have predicted that he would get a question on gun violence after the week that passed lol
Ditto the border, filibuster, etc. All I saw was a boring ass conference.
A question on gun which he screwed. Answer this: why did he answer with schools and water fountains when asked about guns?
Cause he's a nervous wreck? An idiot? Fuck if I know
