Joe Biden snaps at ANOTHER reporter over question about his family's 'conflicts of interest' in the Ukraine and demands media 'focus' on Trump doing 'what no president has ever done'

Biden lashed out at the reporter at an event on Friday in Los Angeles

'It's not a conflict of interest,' Biden snapped about his son's work in Ukraine

Biden insisted that the press 'focus' on Trump instead of questions about himself

Biden has previously demanded that reporters 'ask the right questions'

Joe Biden has lashed out at a reporter in response to a question about his family's potential conflicts of interest in the Ukraine, insisting that press should focus on allegations against President Donald Trump.

At a Service Employees International Union forum in Los Angeles on Friday, Biden was asked about his work overseeing foreign policy for Ukraine as vice president while his son Hunter served on the board of a major Ukrainian company.

'It's not a conflict of interest. There's been no indication of any conflict of interest, in Ukraine or anywhere else. Period,' Biden snapped.

Asked how his son's cushy $50,000-a-month gig didn't at least create the appearance of a conflict of interest, Biden rejoined: 'I'm not going to respond to that. Focus on this man. What he's doing that no president has ever done. No president.'

This would never be happening if Creepy Joe was the only Democrat Party candidate.

The ascension of the Hillary Elizabeth Warren ticket is in process. Trump actually wanted to run against Joe Biden. “Easy to beat joe”.

Slow Joe is a nasty piece of work. An absolute thug. Only now he has to start answering questions and facing the music and his only reaction is “stop asking me questions!”

Well, him AND his son were both interested in bribing money from the Ukraine, so there was no conflict there....

Not only is it a conflict of interest, it’s bribery.

Yo, Gropin' Joe, would it be a conflict of interest if it involved Donald Trump, Jr. or Eric Trump or Barron Trump?

Asking for a friend.

‘Likewise, China should start an investigation into the Bidens,’ Trump insisted, ‘because what happened with the Bidens in China is just about as bad.

‘President Zelensky – if it were me I would recommend they start an investigation into the Bidens because nobody has any doubt that they aren’t crooked,’ he added, as he prepared to leave for a trip to The Villages in Florida.

‘So if I were the president I would certainly recommend that of Ukraine.’

Asked if he had requested Chin’s president Xi Jinping to launch a corruption investigation focusing on the Bidens, Trump replied: ‘I haven’t, but it’s certainly something we can start thinking about.’

Trump controversially congratulated China on the 70th anniversary of the declaration of its modern Communist state earlier this week and talks on a trade deal between the U.S. and Beijing are to resume next week.

He said he suspects Xi ‘does not like being under that kind of scrutiny where billions of dollars is taken out of his country by a guy that just got kicked out of the Navy.’

That was a reference to Hunter Biden, who was discharged from his officer’s commission in the Navy Reserve early in 2014 after testing positive for cocaine.

‘He got kicked out of the navy. All of a sudden he’s getting billions of dollars. You know what they call that? They call that a payoff.’

Joe Biden boasted last year about threatening to scuttle $1 billion in U.S. loan guarantees if Ukraine’s government didn’t fire the lead prosecutor investigating the energy company where his son Hunter held a lucrative Board of Directors seat.

‘I looked at them and said: “I’m leaving in six hours. If the prosecutor is not fired, you’re not getting the money”,’ the former VP recalled in a January 2018 speech. ‘Well, son of a b***h. He got fired. And they put in place someone who was solid at the time.’

The finger-pointing and the voice raising Joe was about to lose it. A little more pressure and he’ll be screaming. Bernie’s through your own deck Joe.

I cannot believe that EW is going to take the VP position. She is 70 years old- this is her only chance at POTUS. Additionally, the country is sick to death of HRC. Had she been a gracious loser, she might have a shot but she has blamed something like 400 different people/ circumstances! Her most recent tour with WJC was a gigantic flop- they had to abandon it b/c NO ONE was buying tickets- they couldn't even GIVE them away. Plus, EW and HRC? Egads! An extra dose of nastiness!

It’s hysterical he says there is nothing but then wouldn’t properly answer the question about his son’s huge pay per month for a job that his son had no experience. That says a lot.

Biden should have never run. Should have gotten out while on top. But alas, his ego is too big for his pea brain. Now he will suffer the consequences of his ill gotten gains. Better get right with God Joe. Your time is limited.

Joe’s time to run was back in 2016. But like Nita Lowey, he stepped aside for the hag.
