Biden Asked If He Misjudged Putin, His Response Is Priceless

It is one of the most weird twenty seconds ever seen on video in a disastrous leadership that goes from one weird second to yet another: when asked “Do you believe you might have underestimated Vladimir Putin?,” Old Joe Biden first stared in the direction of the person asking the question, a slight grin on his face, completely unchanged from what it was before. A few moments later he turned his head to look into the camera and, after some more seconds, grinned strangely. A few moments later, he started picking his teeth, and smiles somewhat vacantly before the video stops. Amid all the bad choices, terrible policies, total failures, and stupid mistakes of this disastrous White House, it was a trivial moment, but boy was it a telling one.
 

Joe Biden has again made it clear that he is not the person in charge. On December 21, 2021, he told a media conference: “I am not supposed to be having this media conference right now.” Who told him not to? Nobody in the sycophantic liberal media seemed to believe it newsworthy to ask the president who was telling him what to do or not do, and so we don’t know.

Biden’s media conferences are scripted; on June 19 of last year, he said: “I will take your questions, and they gave a list of those I will call on.” 

Through all this, the media won’t ask Biden who is calling the shots. That person could be Barack Obama, who said in 2020: “I used to say if I could have a stand-in and they had an earpiece and I was in my basement looking through the stuff and I could deliver the lines, I’d be fine with it.”

Anyway, what happened when Joe Biden was asked about Putin? He might have judged it was a lose-lose question: if he had said he had not underestimated him, the problem in Ukraine would be a rebuke to his statement, but had he said he had underestimated Vladimir Putin, he would be admitting he was wrong, which political calculation and pride will never allow. Or did his scripted notes not mention such a question, and so it was ignored?
