But it surely exhibits the informal disdain this White Home has for voters, in addition to reporters who’ve been ready lengthy for a “massive boy press convention” from Biden, to not point out interviews with out licensed questions submitted forward of time.
Talking of which … will White Home press corps reporters increase this problem with Biden when — or possibly if — Is there a press convention this week? Do not maintain your breath.
