If there’s one thing the mainstream media has proven, it’s that the White House press team are Biden’s best babysitters… especially during press conferences.
A few months ago, Biden was mocked by the media when he began his Q&A at a press conference in Geneva for being safeguarded from outside questions. Before the Q&A, he said bluntly, “I’ll take your questions, and as usual, folks, they gave me a list of the people I’m going to call on.”
Biden only takes questions from pre-approved reporters… I guess that’s one way to lose the trust of the few dem holdouts left…
Even parts of the media are starting to admit the problems… CNN news correspondent Jeff Zeleny expressed his disappointment with Biden in his report.
He said, “We have not seen him answer questions without his aides screaming at him to stop. I have never seen a president… who is so protected by his aides in terms of not wanting him to answer some questions.”
Biden’s poor handling of the media exploits his weaknesses as a leader to enemy countries… like China, Russia, and North Korea.
Former TV producer Lara Trump doesn’t like what she’s seeing either. “Think about the message and the signal that this sends to our adversaries… to Vladimir Putin, to Kim Jong Un, to Xi Jinping… the people that are kind of looking for weakness in the United States. It makes us look ridiculous. It is embarrassing, and we’re getting no information from the president. It’s crazy.”
Now, there’s speculation that other nations think they can walk all over America. Our “American Pride” is slipping away… because a weak leader represents us.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki admits that her team advises Biden not to take unapproved questions from any reporter. Biden’s public appearances are starting to sound staged and insincere. We’ve seen him and his team in action several times…
Biden will stand in front of the camera, read a pre-written speech, then he’ll take a few questions… and his staff will interrupt and say, “That’s it, thanks for coming. We’re done!”
Fourth Watch newsletter editor Steve Krakauer also criticizes Biden and his team for their selectivity. “If you ask a tough question (to Biden) you might be taken off the list. Then you will have no question for your media organization.”
Having pre-approved reporters to interview Biden closes the door for many Republican voices to be heard. All press conferences are just one-sided conversations for the leftists… and it’s very unfair.
Biden told us a few months ago that “he needs us.” But judging from the state of the media… a better way to rephrase his statement is “he needs his press team more than us.”
Even President Donald Trump noted that Biden’s age is not an excuse for his public speaking and press conference troubles. Our president said, “His age is not the problem… I hope he has no problems. I want him to go out and do well. I think the election was unbelievably unfair… but I want this guy to go out and do well for our country.”
Gone are the days when President Trump would let any reporter approach him to ask questions during press conferences… when we had a president who didn’t need pre-approved reporters to spoon-feed him questions or a White House team to babysit him.
Last year, Biden called President Trump a puppet. But it looks like it’s evident who’s the real puppet being manipulated here…
