Biden
By Nick Arama
NBCâs Peter Alexander, for example, asked Psaki: âIf you want to send the message to migrants that the border is closed, shouldnât President Biden be the one who is clearly delivering that message?â Alexander even asked why the Biden team wasnât giving any credit to the Trump Administration for developing the vaccines for the Wuhan coronavirus. Psaki credited science for the vaccine but not Trump. Alexander reminded her that it was Operation Warp Speed through which the vaccines were developed, ultimately to the distribution point.
Then today Peter Baker of the New York Times antagonized many on the left by linking a WaPo story and questioning why Biden hasnât had a press conference yet, with Thursday being 50 days since he came in.
At this point in office, Trump had given five news conferences. Obama had given two, George W. Bush three and Clinton five. Biden so far has given zero. @farhip https://t.co/h4HVeyd8kx

As the WaPo noted and weâve previously reported, itâs the longest anyone has gone in the past 100 years. Back to when Calvin Coolidge was president, known as âSilent Cal,â which shows you how unprecedented Bidenâs silence is.
But the left is so invested in spinning on behalf of Biden, they donât recognize or care that perhaps the American people deserve answers and even the press deserves transparency. That maybe we should be concerned especially if there are questions about his competence.
Why should we be asking any questions of a Democratic president? Their comments are truly an exercise in delusion. They melted down for hours on Twitter at Baker for his comment which was a mere statement of fact. Hereâs just a sample.
We are in a pandemic which has killed over a half a million Americans. Which he inherited. He is moving at break neck speed. Thatâs more important right now. WAKE UP.

Breakneck speed, thatâs a good one.
DC media are trying hard to normalize their past coverage of Trump by âtan suitingâ Biden but from the look of these ratios, twitter isnât buying what theyâre selling âŠ. pic.twitter.com/M70x7wbMUs

2/ And itâs not like said WH press corps exactly distinguished itself these last four years. Why would Biden want to waste his time answering what will largely be stupid questions?

Sure, why bother? He shouldnât have to answer any questions at all right, just issue edicts from on high that are spun by his press team. We never even have to see him at all or even see what kind of health he is in, right? Thatâs not important. Donât you dare even ask!
