If anyone was looking for any real news out of Biden’s first presidential press conference, they were disappointed. That wasn’t the real purpose though. It was simply meant to mollify the media enough to let him run back to his basement so the grown ups could get back to screwing the country.
There were a few remarkable items though. He had been prepared well. The little book he had on the podium with him had headshots of the press that was in the room, and circled numbers next to the pictures. This was probably to let him know who to call on and when. Also, several answers he gave were obviously read from note cards. This makes me wonder if he was given the questions in advance. The White House has been known to ask the press for their questions beforehand.
All of that is to be expected. The Biden campaign and presidency has been no more than a Potemkin village from the beginning. One of the biggest clues was the faux outrage he exhibited when talking about state Republican attempts to institute voting integrity measures. He repeated a couple of times that the republican voters he knows find it despicable. The ones he knows must be in on the game then, because the vast majority of Americans want to have their elections secured, to include minorities.
So, all in all, the press conference delivered by the president was a waste of everyone’s time except for the team in power. They can say that he did it and we all just need to move on.
