HOT MIC: Biden calls Peter Doocy a “stupid son of a b*tch” after he gets a question on inflation pic.twitter.com/iMviX4628x

Biden has had an undeserved reputation for being a nice guy for decades. On the contrary, Biden has always been a callous tool with little empathy for others outside of his immediate family. Dementia has not changed that, although perhaps it has deepened his inability to tell when a mike is on or off.
More here about Biden’s followup cell phone call with Peter Doocy:

People hates Trump because he would make remarks like “stupid SOB.” But with Biden it’s OK. While the incivility whether by Trump or Biden is objectionable, the hypocrisy in letting Biden skate without repudiation but holding Trump up to ridicule for having done the same is unfathomable.
Garbage man. Garbage conduct. Garbage policies.
The media’s ability to shape the impressions of people is not to be underestimated. Even many conservatives will say that Biden has “better presidential norms” or “isn’t as crude and mean” when compared to President Trump (while they will of course attack Biden’s policies and competency.)
But it isn’t like this is the first time that Biden has acted petty and mean. He’s done so before when he knew he was on mic. He’s repeatedly talked about beating up his political opponents. He even has attacked normal people who have asked him questions. Remember “dog faced pony soldier” and “look, fat”?
As the appropriate saying goes, It takes one to know one.
Biden is a failure and he knows it.
A bumbling jerk. The skid mark in the history of theses United States
of America. What a legacy he’s leaving and it just keeps getting worse and worse. Brandon fits.
Joe Brandon.
The problem isn’t that Biden cussed at a correspondent. The problem is he did so because the correspondent asked a legitimate question about the economy. Something we should expect from correspondents.
Trump has a disconcertingly adolescent way of expressing things, and, on occasion, reacting to things. These are manifest in his tweets. Some of it is troublesome substantively (see his remarks on Colin Powell’s death), some of it is just unvarnished.
That having been said, as far as I can see, no one to date has provided evidence of corruption on Trump’s part. His moral offenses would appear to be in four realms. One concerns his treatment of contractors, and that’s very murky because assessing him is dependent on granular knowledge you do not have (Trump detractors fancy you can just ask the people who were his adversaries in law suits). The second was the Trump University scandal, which actually does appear (facially) to have been a skin-the-marks game. The third is his amatory / sexual misconduct, the extent of which is murky; the lower bound certainly includes his affair with Marla Maples. The fourth is his chronic car salesman BS, which includes exaggeration so gross as to cross the line into mendacity.
Note, the people telling you that the franchise of blacks is contingent on passing the monstrous HR 1 are not in the least bothered by lying and do it with abandon.
Note, Hunter Biden’s full time job for north of 20 years now has been to be his father’s bag man, something he does in a double-act with his uncle. Hunter’s a grotesque. Part of the reason for that is that for 30 years or more he’s been receiving positive feedback for engaging in activity most parents would not want their son to touch. With the location of Ashley’s diary, it’s plain now that sexual deviance is an issue with father and son in a way it seldom is with ordinary adult men.
God only knows who they’ve sold out to in collecting eight-figure sums of money in their pay-to-play schemes.

A subset of the population of dements react to their impairments with displays of anger. We’ve got one in our family right now.
Doocy is an SOB. I really don’t have a problem with Biden saying so. My problem is the hypocrisy. Trump put up with countless more SOBs, and even a hint of impatience was widely covered and criticized. The double-standard is obvious and infuriating.
The question Doocy asked was a not so much out of bounds as just plain stupid, plainly designed to needle Biden — which is what Doocy is famous for. Of course, Trump put up with dozens of Doocys and Doocy questions.
“One time my mother called me a son of a bitch, so I hit her because no one talks trash about my mother, then I hit myself because no one hits my mother, she then hit me because no one hits her son and then hit herself because no one hits me, so I hit her because no one hits my mother.”

As I checked the new articles this morning, I saw that the president called Peter Doocy a “stupid son of a b*tch”, then saw the headline, “Discerning a Prophet”. I think traditionally, when a leader calls someone a stupid SOB for questioning him, that’s usually a sign of a prophet.
I wasn’t obsessive about following Trump and collecting his wrongs, but… I don’t remember him publicly calling someone a stupid SOB as a response. Publicly pointing out when they were playing Stupid Reporter Games, but that’s not actually the same. One’s being somewhat rudely direct in response to rudeness, the other is being rudely abusive.
Mike Petrik,
Good one!
Four each Pinocchios in two each comments.
All you Biden apologists can Go Jump In The Lake.
Everything was better under Trump.
Everything is ruined under Biden.
No More Mean Trump tweets!
No more affordable food/fuel prices, no more peace, less prosperity, no more constructive Trump policies.
I’d say that Obama, Trump, and Biden are bad speakers and petulant. We lose credibility when we excuse those traits.
The question Doocy asked was a not so much out of bounds as just plain stupid, plainly designed to needle Biden —
The question was…
“Will you take questions about inflation? Do you think inflation is a political liability ahead of the midterms?”
:blink: :blink:
While I can see how that would feel like an attack to a politician that is accustomed to getting nothing but pre-submitted softballs and fluffer questions, that is rather relevant, looking at the prices on the sale items I put in the freezer vs what I had the year before.
I now have to give a left handed compliment to Biden’s puppet masters. Their pick of Kamala was a stroke of genius. Despite Biden’s obvious inability to perform, the prospect of a Harris presidency scares everyone to silence. In the meantime they have a totally compliant foil.

The question is stupid if one thinks the purpose of press conferences is to actually elicit information. But if one thinks instead that their purpose is to allow for cheap shots to score ratings or political points, I guess it is not stupid. My view of their proper purpose is inimical to that of our MSM.
This man’s rage is the rage of a man in control of the nuclear codes. If he believes it will improve his position, he may start a war before the mid-terms. If he does support of neo-con Republicans may unfortunately save him from disaster at the polls.
Since Biden’s policies with respect to deliberately acting to increase oil prices are at the very least part of that inflation, I would like to hear what he has to say for himself on the subject.
But I guess “actually dealing with results of political actions” is suddenly a cheap shot?
Crazy “Uncle Felix” from up in the attic losing control..not much left upstairs.
He’s getting worse every day..
Question: why isn’t there a universal hand signal for “open mike”? I guess the finger across the throat is a generic “stop what you’re doing”, but it could mean a lot of things. There should be something specific.

Questioning Biden on inflation is not only fair game, it is the press’s job. But the question should be designed to elicit information, not just try to embarrass him. A question such as to what extent do you think inflation will be a liability for Democrats in the midterms is entirely appropriate. As would be, what do you say to critics who claim your policies have contributed to inflation? But Doocy’s question was not designed to generate an informative answer, but solely to embarrass Biden. I deplored such cheap shots when they were incessantly directed at Trump, and don’t think any better of them now. Our MSM are sophomoric hypocrites.
Parsing whether a question about inflation was sufficiently polite strikes me as asking whether a band of bank robbers also stole one of the chained down pens from the bank on their way out. If they did, sure that’s something bad, but even in normal circumstances it would barely be worth worrying about and in the present context it becomes absurd.
The question is stupid if one thinks the purpose of press conferences is to actually elicit information.
Mr. Doocy isn’t asking questions of Daniel Patrick Moynihan.
But Doocy’s question was not designed to generate an informative answer, but solely to embarrass Biden.
Asking a politician – especially a Democratic pol – a question about his electoral prospects is throwing him a softball. Ask a Democratic pol his understanding of the sources of the inflation, you actually are likely to embarrass him. Have a gander at the Biden / Klain cabinet. Bunch of lawyers and educational apparatchiks with a woke-tard general thrown in. The smart money says Janet Yellen and perhaps Petey Booty-gag might give you a coherent answer, and you’d have to persuade Booty-gag to show up at work first.
The infuriating thing is that the question is a softball.
Who the heck can’t manage to make sympathetic sounds about how painful inflation is and how hard you’re working to Fight Inflation and how much pain it’s causing to those who can least afford the extra costs?
It’s only designed to embarrass him if you assume that he is so far gone he can’t even have a basic feel-good answer about a major subject that’s been heavily discussed for the last several months.
Basically, it’s only aimed at embarrassing him if the politician is universally assumed to be incapable of speaking coherently about a basic political subject.
If he does support of neo-con Republicans may unfortunately save him from disaster at the polls.
Once more with feeling. There was never a popular ‘neoconservative’ dispensation. There were some publications and letterhead organizations which had a distinct perspective during the period running from 1977 to 1992. There neither were nor are ‘neocon’ voters. Nor were there, at the end of 2019, an identifiable body of Republicans dissatisfied with the Republican president (above and beyond the standard 9% or so of self-identified Republicans dissatisfied with the Republican president of the day for whatever reason). ‘NeverTrumpers’, whether or not you give them the additional descriptor ‘neocon’ are a collection of publicists, lobbyists, campaign hacks, and elected officials with no demographic weight, just grifts to advance.
“Gosh yes inflation is just a terrible problem for the American People– we tried to get my [whatever that huge bill was] passed to get some relief to the country, but … well, we just couldn’t get everyone on board, and we’re trying to find something else that will help.”
Totally agree with your accessment of number on neo-con voters and description of Never Trumpers. The point is that if this senile selfish man involves us in a war to further his selfish political aims and is publicly supported by the “establishment “ (never-Trumpers, etc.) many otherwise Republican voters may choose to stay home rather than vote for a Republican whose war attitude is indistinguishable from that of Biden.
I get the impression Biden’s being getting very testy with journalists lately.

They guy is ill, and it’s showing. And he isn’t coping. Whose going to throw in the white towel. I actually feel sorry for him.
*been
If he wasn’t so evil. He has espoused the same blather all his public life. On of his most disgusting: “Threating to shove the beads of the Most Holy Rosary down the throats of his critics.” A disgusting man.
Truth, Mr. Parrish.
