Biden snaps repeatedly at Lester Holt in combative NBC interview days after Trump assassination attempt: ‘What’s with you guys?’

MILWAUKEE — President Biden repeatedly scolded NBC anchor Lester Holt in an interview Monday — exclaiming at one point, “What’s with you guys? Come on, man!” — as he defended his criticism of Donald Trump despite calling on Americans to “lower the temperature” after the assassination attempt on the former president Saturday.

The 81-year-old president lashed out when Holt pressed him on his disastrous June 27 debate performance and bristled when the journalist asked him about former Trump’s running mate J.D. Vance.

“Are you seeing what [viewers] saw, which was moments of frankly, that appeared to be — you appeared to be confused?” Holt asked the president.

“Lester, look, why don’t you guys ever talk about the 18, the 28 lies (Trump) told? Where are you on this? Why didn’t the press ever talk about that? Twenty-eight times it’s confirmed he lied in that debate,” Biden exclaimed.

“Seriously, you won’t answer the question, but why didn’t the press talk about all the lies he told? I haven’t heard anything about that.”

When Holt protested, “We have reported many of the issues,” Biden snapped back.

“No you haven’t! No you haven’t! God love you,” fumed Biden — who falsely claimed at the debate that no troops died on his watch and confusingly said he “finally beat Medicare.”

Later, Biden raised the fact that Vance, an Ohio Republican senator, had criticized Trump in 2016.

“Well, he said something about you,” Holt replied.

“He said some things about me, but see what he said about Trump. What’s up with you guys? Come on, man,” Biden chided.

You tell 'em Brandon. They're supposed to be on your side. Brush it off. Only three short months to go. It's in the bag. Stay strong. Let's go Brandon.

I'd like to know what the lies were that biden is referring to. I wouldn't be a bit surprised to learn that he doesn't know how to count or no longer understands basic arithmetic.

I’ve long thought that the USA needs less Holt.

Doesn’t look like Biden wants to “turn down the temperature “ to me. I hope Trump sees this and knows that he should respond in kind.

He’s no longer mentally competent enough to use his slick politicking so now all he can manage is deflection by whining.

He would never be that disrespectful to a white journalist.

Lester, give the guy some space. After all, did you hear his son died in the war? Go, Big Brandon!

Re “ Twenty-eight times it’s confirmed he lied in that debate,” Biden exclaimed.”

Reminds me of the scene in “The Manchurian Candidate” (the original) where James Gregory was having trouble remembering “how many communists were in the government” as he was slamming a bottle of Heinz 57 ketchup…

So they settled on 57…

There’s not enough JD at the 3 nearest liquor stores to get me through the next three months.

And there’s not enough on the planet if the jerk wins.

So tell all of your friends and family that they are spporting alcoholism if they vote for biden!

It’s a stetch...but what the heck. It’s worth a shot :)

When a politician starts a reply with “look” don’t believe anything that comes next.

Maybe because I’m biased against democrats, but he seems to me a very unlikeable man. Biden is, maybe the most unlikeable POTUS in my life.

Here are the ones I can remember
Nixon
Ford
Carter
Reagan
Bush
Clinton
Bush
Obama
Trump
This guy. NOPE he is definitely the most unlikeable weirdo.

How in the hell did he ever get there?

I went to the CNN website to see what they were talking about as lies after the debate. Many of their "lies" were what could easily be differences of opinion. Two for example, DJT said the 18 to 20 million illegals that have invaded the country under Biden's watch. Maybe the actual number is lower but there is no doubt it is in the double digits in millions - CNN said that was a lie. They also said that DJT's statement about the discrepancies in the 2020 election was a lie. Well just because they want to LIE about the integrity of that election, there is plenty of (unrecognized by CNN) evidence that that election was fraudulent.
