Biden press conference today LIVE – Trump SLAMS ‘softball questions’ at White House as Joe’s approval rating tanks

0 17

FORMER President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of choosing reporters to deliver “softball questions” during his press conference Wednesday.

President Biden spoke at a White House press conference for the first time in 10 months on Wednesday, the final day of his first year in the Oval Office.

Donald Trump issued a statement during the conference claiming that Biden was reading the answers to “softball questions,” a phrase he’s used before.

“How come Biden picks a reporter off a list, in all cases softball questions, and then reads the answer?” Trump’s statement reads.

For the first hour of the conference, Biden called on reporters from a list in a binder.

However, after a question by CNN’s Jeff Zeleny, Biden began calling on reporters at random.

When Fox News’s Peter Doocy asked why Biden was trying so hard to “pull the country so far to the left,” Biden responded while laughing.

“You guys have been trying to convince me that I’m Bernie Sanders,” Biden said.

“I’m not. I like him. I’m not Bernie Sanders. I’m not a socialist. I’m a mainstream Democrat.”

Biden spoke for almost two hours as he highlighted his administration’s accomplishments during a “year of challenges,” saying that his administration had made “enormous progress.”

When asked if he overpromised on his first year in office, he said he “probably outperformed” though his popularity with Americans continues to slip.

Biden’s approval rating hit a new low in his presidency in the latest poll from Morning Consult and Politico.

According to the poll, just 40 percent of people approve of Biden’s performance, while 56 percent disapprove.
