Biden Snaps After Peter Doocy Confronts Him: ‘Why Do You Think I’ll Always Take Your Questions?’

President Biden’s Temper Flares as ⁣Peter Doocy Strikes a Nerve

President Joe Biden is notoriously⁤ thin-skinned, but it’s still impressive how skilled ‍Peter Doocy is at getting under⁤ it.

While the‌ president was taking questions from reporters outside the White House on Thursday, the Fox News White House correspondent confronted​ Biden about⁤ recent polls that suggest⁢ he ⁤may lose to ‍former President Donald Trump ​ in 2024.

Biden‍ attempted to⁣ disarm Doocy with a ​friendly little jibe, but the ‍reporter got the better of him with a question ⁤that turned the president into a nasty, old crank in no time​ flat.

“Why do ⁤you think it is, in this election season ‌— ” Doocy began before Biden interjected.

“Why‌ do you think ‍it is I always take your questions?” Biden cut⁢ him off while flashing a smile and putting his hand‍ on Doocy’s ⁢shoulder.

“It’s a good ⁢one.‌ I’ve got two good ‌ones,” Doocy replied,⁤ unfazed.

“Why do‍ you think it is that people should be more concerned about abortion access than your​ age?”​ Doocy asked the 80-year-old president.

“I don’t think it’s a comparable comparison,” Biden responded.

Doocy went in for his second question, which changed Biden’s demeanor in an instant.

“Why do you think it⁤ is that you’re trailing Trump in all these swing-state polls?” Doocy asked.

“Because you don’t read the⁢ polls — there are 10 polls, eight of them ⁢I’m beating him in,” Biden ‍said, wagging his index finger at Doocy.

“You‍ guys only do two ​— CNN and New York Times. ‍Check it‍ out. Check it out. We’ll get you a copy,” Biden‍ said.

Another female reporter next to Doocy⁣ pressed Biden on ⁢the matter: “You don’t believe you’re trailing in battleground states?”

“No, I don’t,” Biden said, with a scowl still on his face.

It’s⁣ clear that Doocy struck a⁣ nerve citing a recent New York Times/Siena College ​ poll, which ⁤found Trump is beating Biden in five of six battleground states.

Trump has the lead ⁢in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, and Pennsylvania — by⁢ at least four points. But even in Wisconsin where the ⁤president is winning, Biden has only 47 ⁢percent support compared to Trump’s 44 percent.

A seasoned politician like Biden could normally be expected to⁣ hold his temper even in the face of such dire statistics being spewed by an adversary.

However, Biden is used to being treated with kid gloves, especially ⁢by the‍ media, so he is sorely out of practice.

In the past, his handlers​ have hand picked the journalists, selected ‍their questions, ⁣and provided cheat sheets — complete with reporters’ pictures‍ — to ensure the president‌ is never asked any difficult or surprising⁣ questions⁣ during news ⁣conferences.

Perhaps that’s because they know that Biden’s notoriously short fuse is down to a nub due ⁤to his advanced age and the stress ‍involved in ruining the country‍ as president.

But without such⁤ a safety net, Biden is at the mercy of his own bad ⁢temper, and that has resulted in ‍revealing ‍meltdowns, including one ⁤instance where he allegedly kicked one of his dogs in anger.

Biden is prone ⁣to such displays whenever he feels cornered or attacked in some way.

Still, there’s something in⁣ particular about Peter Doocy that causes⁣ Biden’s nice-guy ⁤veneer to dissolve in an instant —⁢ and we’re here for ‍it.
