(70,686 posts)it's hell.
While TAPPER also got all prim about it, KIMMEL said, "DOOCEY *is* a stupid SOB!"
And aren't all the Faux zombies all in a tizzy in the vein of, presidential war on "journalists" while Drumpf called them "enemy of the state" and tons of crap, and even The View said it was "beneath presidential dignity".
I haven't seen it anywhere, but I'm suspecting President Joe is gaming the a-holes, playing them at their own game: DOOCEY is a nobody who is building a career by all the attention he gets by poking at PSAKI and the prez. So actually the president has gotten a ton of attention for this, and in an unspoken *favorable* way for doing a Harry S

He gets on my nerves as a fellow Philadelphian with his sanctimonious delivery.

(7,528 posts)TFG ranted personally against reporters and individuals every single day and it lost its effectiveness and became background noise that people tuned out. When someone tactful like Biden does it it's a rare smackdown and much more newsworthy. Deuce was asking the dumbest loaded question ever and Biden wasn't having it. I'm sure the President is fully aware of Doocy's shenanigans in Psaki's pressers and suspect the reporter won't try to pull that again at least for a bit.
The rightwing likes to paint Biden as an unaware doddering fool, but he's exactly not that and this was a good reminder that he's much more aware and on top of things than many give credit for.

(9,116 posts)You call on them, they're going to distort whatever you say. You don't call on them, you feed into their delusions of martyrdom.
At least with the former, there's always the possibility that somebody listening in won't buy the spin they try to put on it.

(7,528 posts)That's what TFG would do; only call on friendly softballs. If he can take a bat to a Fox reporter like that on rare occasion I'm for it!

(2,350 posts)That was far beyond calling someone a "[S]tupid son of a bitch*". When tRump said something insulting or outrageous, Faux acted like Officer Barbrady on South Park: "Nothing to see here. Move along. Move along."
So, for Faux to get its collective knickers in a twist over this is...well...stupendously hypocritical. But, that's also par for the course for Faux.

(90,674 posts)Is that what their problem is? No one to call the press the enemy of the people and berate actual journalists as the worst reporter ever. No one to call out the mob on one of their own (a small young woman named Katy Tur) or offer to pay the legal expenses if the mob injured someone
What the actual whatever.

(51,550 posts)And Trump attacked all media. Biden just muttered to himself what we're all thinking about dishonest dumbass Steve Doocy.
It's infuriating to see the media equate what Trump has done for years with one hot mic moment by Biden.
