The transition from the surreal and hostile psychoses of Donald Trump, to the decidedly more rational and stable personality of Joe Biden, has a produced a series of “eye rolling”<\/em> moments that can provoke both laughter and confusion. There has been a desperate struggle by Fox News and other right-wing media to contrive “scandals”<\/em> from trivialities. Whether it’s mocking the romance in Biden’s marriage<\/a><\/strong>, or lying about Kamala Harris selling books to migrant children<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The latest hypocrisy by Fox News is their expression of horror because, as they put it<\/a><\/strong>, “President Biden snapped at a reporter at the end of his press conference.”<\/em> The reporter, Kaitlan Collins of CNN, asked Biden why he was “confident”<\/em> that Vladimir Putin would change his behavior. Biden’s reply resulted in this exchange:<\/p>\n

Biden:<\/strong> I’m not confident he’ll change his behavior. What in the hell, what do you do all the time? When did I say I was confident? Let’s get this straight. I said what will change their behavior is if the rest of the world reacts to them and diminishes their standing in the world. I’m not confident of anything. I’m just stating a fact.
\nCollins:<\/strong> But given his past behavior has not changed, and in that press conference after sitting down with you for several hours, [Putin] denied any involvement in cyber attacks, he downplayed human rights abuses, he even refused to say [Russian dissident] Alexei Navalny’s name. So, how does that account to a constructive meeting?
\nBiden:<\/strong> If you don’t understand that, you’re in the wrong business.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
