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.'

It is _never_ a conflict of interest if Democrats do it—they are royalty and are not subject to laws that apply to the deplorables.

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

Biden has been in the cross hairs since before the Mueller withhunt ended and before he declared his candidacy.

Rudy Giuliani acting as the President’s defense lawyer against the Mueller and democrat allegations was in Ukraine based on firm evidence that the Russian-Collusion hoax had its origins there.

Rudy has been traveling and maintaining contact with Ukrainians for well over a year. In the course of his evidence gathering, Ukrainians approached him and informed him of the known and provable massive corruption of the former US Vice President.

I am not at all certain that Donald Trump wouldn’t pull the corruption trigger if Biden were the only democrat candidate.

Trump leads me too believe he’s not scared at all to do the right thing, even if controversial.

“stop asking me questions!”
Who ever asks this type of question “presses” the right button.

All three of them need to face a court of law and answer for their crimes.

Hillary is not well. Bernie’s body is falling apart like the corpse bride. Mr Biden’s family and mind are failing him. The rest of the dem field are Stalinists.

I'll bet. Quid Pro Joe is now reduced to pointing at the back, shouting "Look! Squirrel!" and scooting out the door.

If he were to get into a position of power and control anyone asking that question would disappear like in the old USSR.

Quid Pro Joe can do this because he doesn’t have to run right now. His ascendancy to the democratic nomination has been assured by the DNC and their super-super-delegates.

Slow Joe thinks that he can “command” the press to cover what he wants covered and ignore anything that would be even slightly bad for him. Slow Joe is living in the 1970s when the only press there was took marching orders from the democrats. Now the alphabet networks are an ever shrinking part of the press corps and if they don’t cover something, someone else who isn’t taking orders from Soros will.

President Trump could phone this canpaign in.

That reporter is taking a great personal risk. SEIU union leaders are marxists. I’ve seen them in action at the State Capital (Harrisburg, PA). The Lunatic Fringe.

Biden doesn’t know when to shut up, the Obama administration used the IRS to go after political opponents.

“Trump actually wanted to run against Joe Biden. “

On the surface, it would seem that way, but the Trump campaign and the RNC just bought ten million worth of ads attacking Jo, after they had already released an anti-Bidn ad a couple of weeks ago.

I’m guessing that the Trump campaign WANTS to run against Warren because Jo is too brain-addled to coherently articulate the lunatic leftist positions, and therefore the only way the Trump campaign has to attack Jo is to point out that he’s too brain-addled to articulate anything, which is pretty thin campaign gruel.

OTOH, attacking Warren is easy because all you really have to do is attack her on her clearly articulated insane positions and there are YUGE numbers of those insane positions and tons of captured video of her articulating those insane positions. Not to mention, Warren is a shrill and extremely unlikable person, a lot like Hillary, but possible even worse if that’s even possible.

Also, Warren is complete anathema to Wall Street and the rest of mega business, whereas they would probably figure Jo would continue the do-nothing polices of the Obama administration towards Wall Street and the rest of the latter-day robber barons, whereas Warren scares them to death because she might mean what she says when she attacks them.

And there’s also no way that Warren’s insane policies will appeal to whatever is left of the sane part of the Democrat voter base, whereas Jo could probably come across as your harmless old uncle.

And finally, Jo has tremendous support in the black community that still strongly associates Jo with the Obama administration, and it’s highly doubtful such strong loyalty automatically transfers over to Warren ....
