President Biden gave some parting attacks to the press during a public White House event Sunday night.
According to a report by Lucas Tomlinson on Fox News, President Biden signed the Social Security Fairness Act and then took questions from the crowd. During this exchange, Biden directed his focus towards President-elect Donald Trump.
“Do you still believe he’s a threat to democracy?” a reporter asked.
“I think what he did was a genuine threat to democracy,” Biden responded.
After responding to the allegation that Trump plans to end birthright citizenship, Biden switched the topic to attacking the reporters.
“I might be the oldest president, but I know more world leaders than any one of you have ever met in your whole goddamn life!” Biden said.
Some X users quickly blasted the comment.
“He’s fine guys,” journalist Salena Zito joked.
Conservative communicator Steve Guest commented, “What a bitter person.”
RedState writer Bonchie criticized this move, highlighting the issue of politicians gaining credibility simply based on their presence, regardless of their track record. Bonchie specifically pointed out Biden’s perceived shortcomings in foreign policy and overall performance.
CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings quipped, “The most civil, decent, and devoutly Catholic president we’ve ever had.”
Biden has lashed out at the press throughout his term, sometimes lobbing aggressive comments at the reporters themselves.
In November, Biden mocked a reporter asking him whether he could broker a hostage deal between Hamas and Israel before leaving office.
“President Biden, do you think we can get a hostage deal by the end of your term?” an Israeli Channel 13 correspondent asked.
Biden replied, stating, “Do you think you can keep from getting hit in the head by a — a camera behind you?”
In 2022, Biden made a controversial remark towards Fox News’ Peter Doocy, referring to him as a “stupid son of a b—-” after being questioned about inflation’s potential impact as a political issue leading up to the midterms. Biden later reached out to Doocy to clarify that the comments were not meant personally.
