Biden Calls NBC’s Lester Holt a ‘Wise Guy’ Over Inflation Question

Biden Calls NBC’s Lester Holt a ‘Wise Guy’ Over Inflation Question

Biden has a problem with the media. Isn’t that a threat to our press? Isn’t that a threat to America?

Remember when a president was disrespectful to the press it was a threat to our so-called democracy? (For the love of everything we are a Republic! Only morons want a pure democracy.)

Biden did it again when NBC’s Lester Holt asked him about another Consumer Price Index report showing record high inflation.

It’s nice to know that Biden is taking inflation seriously by lashing out at reporters who ask him about it:

LESTER HOLT, NBC NEWS HOST: I think it was back in July, you said inflation was going to be temporary. I think a lot of Americans are wondering what your definition of temporary is.

JOE BIDEN, PRESIDENT: Well, you’re being a wise guy with me a little bit, and I understand that’s your job. But look, at the time, what happened was the, uh, let’s look at the reasons for the inflation. And the reason for the inflation is the supply chains were cut off, meaning that the products, for example, automobiles, the lack of computer chips to be able to build those automobiles so they could function, they need those computer chips, they were not available. So, what happens? When the number of cars were reduced, the new cars reduced, it made up at one point one-third the cost of inflation because the price of automobiles were up.

Computer chips?!

But you guys, 14 Nobel laureates told Biden that inflation should cool off this year. You cannot argue with him now because 14 of those people said so!

Yeah, it totes has nothing to do with the constant spending and printing of money. Biden still wants to pass his $2 trillion “Build Back Better” bill despite common sense saying don’t spend more money.

Oh, yeah. It’s already paid for by the fairies on Fantasy Island or something.

The mainstream media can no longer deny that the economy is not getting better. Inflation sets new records every month as regular Americans struggle to buy food. I wonder when bread will hit $10.

Now is the best time to pray before your meals and be thankful for the food you have.

But let’s remember when Biden called Fox’s Peter Doocy a “dumb son of a bitch” when he asked about inflation.

In January, Biden snarked at RealClearNews’s Philip Wegmann when the latter reminded the president he ran on civility: “No, I didn’t say that. Look what I said. Go back and read what I said and tell me if you think I called anyone who voted on the side of the position taken by Bull Connor that they were Bull Connor? And that is an interesting reading of English. Yeah, I assume you got it in the journals because you like to write.”

Don’t forget about his blowup at CNN’s Kaitlan Collins when she asked why Biden is so confident that Putin will change his behavior: “I am not confident he will change his behavior. Where the hell … what do you do all the time? When did I say I was confident? I said, what I said was — let’s get it straight — I said what will change their behavior is if the rest of the world reacts to them and it diminishes their standing in the world. I am not confident of anything. I am just stating the facts.”

Biden chastised Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich when she asked the president why he’s waiting for Putin to make the first move regarding Ukraine: “What a stupid question.”

I find this snarckalicious. My fam members that rended their garments while clutching pearls over Trump being “mean” to the media refuse to respond to any of his glaring ugly.

I’d rather be a wise guy than a vegetable Mr President. Just saying.

    MrE you or I wouldn’t say that if we lost our freedom to the likes of the psychos running our government.

    A free vegatable is better off than a concenration camp inmate. Just ask the January 6 defendants being tortured in jail and obscenely deprived of their freedom in violation of the 8th Amendment.

      Did you send that to me because you think I need to be educated?

      Or do you just reply to the first or second comment in a thread to secure your position near the top?

      I don’t see your comment as relevant to my lighthearted snark.

        Nothing personal, MrE.
        At this point, I just don’t find as humor anymore in the situation we are in. People in this country are rotting in DC jails for exercising their freedom of assembly. The economy is about to go so far south that we’re going to experience shortages of food in our county – the first time every. Literally mentally ill or completely corrupt clowns are in the highest offices of our country. “Our” president is in the pocket of our sworn enemies. The most corrupt POS ever to hold office this side of Hillary Clinton is about to start a war with Russia. Our nation has literally been invaded in its southern border with the help of the clown holding the highest office in our land. Rioters are getting free passes in our corrupt justice system. Our teachers are complete freaks or pedophiles, destroying our children. The dumbest person in military history is in charge of our military, turning it into a drag queen club.

        Comedy just doesn’t work anymore – not when we’re on the brink of societal collapse that is completely intentional.

          How is comedy supposed to “work” in the first place? This is a comment section on a blog. None of us here are advisors to the president, none of us are members of Congress, none of us have a national TV show, no one here has millions of Twitter followers. what’s the point of scolding someone for making light of a shitty situation? Is comedy now off limits? Are you the arbiter of behavior now?

          Lighten up and stop thinking you have any influence over the freaking state of the nation. That’s an impossible burden to hold,

      I’m a bookkeeper’s son /
      I don’t want to shoot no one /
      Well I crossed some old senile president /
      Don’t take me alive /
      Got a case of dynamite /
      I could hold out here all night /
      Yes I crossed some old senile president /
      Don’t take me alive.

The lone stooge

Nothing to see here from the AP, they will spin this as Biden complimenting a successful black man on his intellectual prowess.

In the American media, no Democrat or other Leftist will ever be held accountable for two things; anything he/her/it says, and anything he/her/it does.

Betcha this is the first time Lester had his name used along side the word ‘wise’.

I remember a reporter, possibly black, asking Jerkface if he had taken a cognitive test. Biden got his panties in a wad and asked the guy if he’d taken a drug test, hey are you a junkie?

This guy has always been a short-tempered jerk of a mediocrity. Now he’s a mean, senile old bastard hell-bent on destroying our republic.

The small degradations, the incremental destruction of our history, our media, our culture, our educational and business institutions of the last half-century have reached their culmination in this crime family boss. May God help us.

    Again Biden insults a black reporter. Wise guy is better than calling someone a junkie, but it shows a pattern.. Unlike our prior President who was always falsely called a racist–we now have a president who actually is a racist.

    The NAACP, BLM etc are notably silent because Joe is a Democrat, Their acronyms should be changed to POS.

God I’d love to see someone punch him right in the mouth.

The left used to com[plain all the time about Trump not being accessible. What do they call the current regime?

I think some sort of revolution is about to sweep the world. People yearn for emancipation and freedom.

Biden was mad that Holt deviated from the pre-approved questions that Biden had teleprompter answers ready for.
The approved questions were deep-digging questions like “What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?” and the ever-important “What are you going to name your new dog?”

    That’s EXACTLY why he got so mad, and why his incoherent nonsense about ‘computer chips’ was so random.

    He is literally incapable of understanding and answering anything he hasn’t been prepped for.

I’ll bet the old pedophile dropped a load in his depends right about then.

Sundowner seems to be getting more testy this last month, more usually cheerleaders are asking real questions and handlers are starting to warn not to ask any questions.
We seeing the final slide downward?

Can anyone imagine Biden facing a truly hostile reporter, the way Trump faced Jim Acosta?
