Presser?

We’ll see. A Presser is news speak for Press Conference.

A Press Conference is one where the Press gets to ask questions during the conference. Biden doesn’t do that.

Joe Biden sat for an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on Wednesday to talk Afghanistan and Covid-19 — among other things. The real news in the interview, however, was that Biden was doing it at all.

The Stephanopoulos interview was only the 9th one Biden has done with a media organization since being sworn in as president seven months ago, according to statistics kept by longtime CBS Radio reporter Mark Knoller.

Which, again according to Knoller, is far — FAR — behind the pace that Biden’s two predecessors gave interviews in their first term. Barack Obama had given 133 interviews by this point in his first term while Donald Trump had done 50.

Trump did a LOT more. He spoke to the press every time he went on the helicopter, outside, or just waiting for something.
