WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden responded to a question about inflation on Monday by calling a Fox News reporter a vulgarity.
The president was in the East Room of the White House for a meeting of his Competition Council, which is focused on changing regulations and enforcing laws to help consumers deal with high prices. Reporters in the room shouted a number of questions after Biden’s remarks.
Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked Biden about inflation, which is at a nearly 40-year high and has hurt the president’s public approval. Doocy’s network has been relentlessly critical of Biden.
Doocy called out, “Do you think inflation is a political liability ahead of the midterms?”
Biden responded with sarcasm, “It’s a great asset — more inflation.” Then he shook his head and added, “What a stupid son of a bitch.”
His comments were captured on video and by the microphone in front of him. Doocy laughed it off in a subsequent appearance on his network, joking, “Nobody has fact-checked him yet and said it’s not true.”
The White House did not immediately responded to a request for comment.

Keep it up, Biden!!!!
Biden is a senile old man. His caregivers should be ashamed of themselves for letting him embarrass himself in public like this.
He should have a hat made.
Quite the honor, and rubbing it in lasts a lifetime.
Can’t wait to hear how Psuki spins it...

Doocy tells Hannity that Biden “cleared the air” with him and that they had a nice call. Doocy says Biden told him “it’s nothing personal pal” and that they talked about moving forward. Doocy says he appreciated Biden reaching out.
You wouldn't be where you are (and we wouldn't be where we are) without Fox News Corp. and their continued silence on the 2020 election fraud to betray Trump, his supporters, their fans, viewers, and the entire country.
Sounds personal too me…xiden IS the stupid sob…
Yep mid-night raid for sure on the horizen for Doocy. Man, can you imagine Pres Trump calling a member of the press “stupid SOB”.
what a stupid idea that it wasnt personal. of course it was personal. Doocy lapping up the ridiculous apology
I’m not all that impressed with Peter Doocy. He often asks open-ended questions that Psaki always seems to answer him with a zinger back to him.
For Peter to kiss and make-up with Brandon sickens me.
Imagine President Trump in that scenario with any member of the press and him calling one of them a sorry sob and it would be 24/7 on mainstream news attacking Trump.
OMG. If I was him, I’d absolutely have a hat made now. I’d wear it EVERYWHERE.
ROFLMAO
In fact, I might send him one.
Am I the only one here gobsmacked thatAP us reporting this? R
According to comments from DM, and boy are they doozies. Biden called Peter about an hour later saying it wasn’t personal. No apology mind you just it wasn’t personal. I don’t know but in my neck of the woods those words would get you a fat lip.
You could put Joe Biden in any room in the world and he’d be the stupidest SOB in it.
remember this?

My question: Why is he sitting down? Cannot he stand like a strong man?
“Hey you kids, get off my lawn!”.

His handlers made him place the call for damage control.
