Karine Jean-Pierre Brushes Off the Lack of Biden Press Conferences Since He Answers ‘Shouted Questions’
He answers your shouted questions because that’s totally the same thing!
The White House press is tired of not having access to President Joe Biden.
Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre brushed off their concerns over the lack of press conferences with Biden because he answers their “shouted questions.”
Totes the same thing, darling:
JEAN-PIERRE: “I mean, the President takes shouted questions — I understand, John. I understand. I understand. I’ve dealt with this question about three times already. I understand that it is — it is — it is the job of you all to ask this question to me, totally get that. And that’s not a problem at all. But, certainly, the President, many times, has stand — has stood in front of all of you, has taken questions on his own, because he wanted to see what was on your minds, he wanted to see what the questions you all were going to ask him. And he wanted to answer them directly. That has happened multiple times, many times during this administration. And that will certainly continue to be. When it comes to a formal press conference, I don’t have anything to share with you at this time.”
The reporter reminded Jean-Pierre that previous administrations had press conferences. The press hasn’t had a conference with Biden in a long time.
Jean-Pierre: “So I’ll say this: It is also unprecedented that a president takes as many shouted questions as this president has, and he has.”
The press was not happy. They’re not going to be sheep when it comes to this. Granted, who knows how many of them would ask Biden real questions:
Jean-Pierre chuckled, and said, “Okay. Well, we’ll certainly get the data and share that with all of you … I hear you. I hear you on the press conference, on a formal press conference. We get this probably every couple of months when you guys ask us about a formal press conference. I don’t have anything to share with all of you at this time, And I’ll just leave it there.” She then moved on.
Karine Jean-Pierre says it's "unprecedented that a president takes as many shouted questions as this president has."

Reporter: "On this four day trip … why can't the president take questions from the press?"
Jean-Pierre: "We just don't have anything on the books for a press conference at this moment. The president always loves to take your questions." pic.twitter.com/74r1q2k3Wa

The admin uses shouted questions from press as an excuse not to hold more press conferences while ignoring that the questions wouldn’t need to be shouted if they actually held more press conferences. Nice circular logic.
How about the press room gets five members to ask 3 primary questions each and one follow up
on one of those questions apiece? 20 questions total assuming Biden can prepare for and answer 20 consecutive questions without being informed of the questions in advance. Surely the POTUS can play the kids game 20 questions?
No, he cant
Gonzotx, I believe you have entered Trump territory with who ever down voted your comment 😂 Just like Democrats discovering a new found live if MS13 when Trump called them adults I guarantee if you condemned Democrat child pedophilia the person who down voted your comment would also down vote you in support of Democrats self declared right to sex with children. #DemocratClownWorld
I think that some people are downvoting based on what they think of the commenter, not on the comment itself. A lot of perfectly normal and acceptable comments are downvoted by a handful of commenters (those for Trump, for DeSantis, and uncommitted), but it doesn’t mean they don’t like what is said or that they are pedophiles/Democrats/RINOs/traitors/OnlyTrump cultists/etc. It just means that the downvoter dislikes the person commenting.
It’s not always easy to tell this because some downvoted comments deserve it based on their content, but in this case, I agree, nothing wrong with what gonzo wrote (I, too, doubt FJB can play 20 questions), so she just has an anti-fan (or two/three/whatever number). She clearly knows it, and it bugs her, so she over-does it with the “LOL” stuff and snippy comments about downvotes, which probably just further instigates the downvoter/s because it’s getting under her skin. And you know it bugs her or you won’t have written this in a (very sweet) effort to make her feel better. 🙂
Personally, I don’t get the focus on votes (up or down). Just say what you think/believe, and who cares if anyone likes it or not? If you can stand by it, what does it matter? Besides, it’s not like the downvotes are permanently visible. After a week or so, they disappear.
Agreed.
My bad, I forgot to add the /S for sarcasm.
It’s the same problem that you get if by some magic you turn a frog into a prince, a frog that has never been a prince, that is.
He has the self-consciousness of a frog. The frog in him keeps trying to get out. He suddenly leaps at flies.
You need careful supervision to keep reporting of that in check when it happens.
Hey, he learned this scam from President Remarks. No questions, no conferences. BUT he was “available” because he offered “remarks.”
What one would expect from The Solipsist in Chief, but President Brandon is exceeding expectations.
Well, what’s she supposed to say? “He’s too senile to be trusted to answer questions?”
Q: What’s the difference between KJP and the Mouth of Sauron? A: The Mouth of Sauron is way more competent and he has higher jounalistic standards.
She’s more like the pathetic Baghdad Bob, because she is just as pathetic:

“So I’ll say this: It is also unprecedented that a president takes as many shouted questions as this president has, and he has.”
Not only Joe and Kamala who speak in “Word Salad” so does his Press Secretary K.J-P.
Which ponders the question ?!?!
When all three find themselves together and they converse, how are they able to have any sort of a sensible conversation?
You end up with a salad bar
She does give Bagdad Bob a run for lies given.
Biden will become more reclusive as we head in to the 2024 election year. Democrats are counting on their journalists not demanding he be wheeled out to speak to them!!

I’m pretty sure she’s lying about this. Pres. Trump was famous for taking shouted questions from the press whenever he went anywhere. And he actually gave intelligible answers.
On top of that, for a long time Trump did evening press briefings on Covid with others that often lasted for over an hour.
I don’t know nothin’ bout pressin’ conferences.
Jean-Pierre certainly has a way with words- a stupid, stumbling, uneducated way.
Boxes checked, Teflon shields UP!
The WH has instituted a new service for the handicapped ….. questions for the hard of hearing.
