Testy Biden wags finger at Fox’s Peter Doocy when pressed on dismal new poll numbers

November 10, 2023 | | Print Article

President Joe Biden didn’t take kindly to being asked a question about a devastating recent poll showing that he’s losing in five of six critical swing states, snapping at Fox News reporter Peter Doocy in a brief exchange at the White House on Thursday.

The deeply unpopular Democrat was heading out to an event in Belvidere, Ill. where he would speak to United Auto Workers (UAW) union members when he was intercepted by the intrepid journalist whom he has a history of being grumpy with and snapped at him again when confronted about the New York Times-Siena College survey that sent shockwaves through the political world.

Doocy first asked the geriatric leader why “people should be more concerned about abortion access than your age,” speaking about the president’s party and the one issue that is the most important to its core voters, the right for expectant mothers to snuff out the lives of their unborn babies in the womb, one that will likely dominate the discourse as the election nears, even as inflation is eating Americans alive.

After Biden replied that he “doesn’t think it’s a comparable comparison,” the Fox News bulldog inquired about the numbers that show him losing in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, Michigan, and even on his home turf of Pennsylvania, a poll that has been a topic in the media for days.

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

“You don’t read the polls. There are 10 polls. Eight of them, I’m beating him in those states,” the testy octogenarian responded, angrily wagging his index finger at Doocy. “Eight of them.”

“You guys only do two. CNN and New York Times. Check it out. Check it out. We’ll get you a copy of all the other polls,” Biden added.

Another reporter then asked, “You don’t believe you’re trailing in battleground states?”

“No I don’t,” the president said as he scurried away from the press gaggle.

Biden was previously rude to Doocy during an exchange in August after he had just wrapped up a speech in Albuquerque, New Mexico while on a western swing to pimp his climate change agenda and tout the miracles of “Bidenomics” when he was asked about his involvement in the business dealings of his degenerate son.

Doocy was referring to testimony from the younger Biden’s former business partner Devon Archer who had just implicated “The Big Guy” in his testimony to Republican lawmakers.

“There’s this testimony now where one of your son’s former business associates is claiming that you were on speakerphone a lot with them, talking business,” he said.

“I never talked business with anybody. I knew you’d have a lousy question,” Biden snapped.

There was also the matter of Biden being caught on a hot mic after Doocy had asked him a question about the economy, muttering that he was a “stupid son-of-a-b*tch,” a remark that drew criticism over the president’s hypocrisy about civility.

While Biden may have a problem with the messenger, the numbers don’t lie and the New York Times-Siena College poll shows that his approval among Americans is sinking like a rock and there may not be enough pro-abortion zealots to bail him out this time.
