Biden grabs Cinco de Mayo lunch after confusing ‘major press conference’ with MSNBC interview

WASHINGTON — President Biden avoided questions from reporters Friday by falsely announcing a “major press conference” — before ducking out to grab lunch at a local taqueria ahead of a one-on-one interview with MSNBC.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do and I’m doing a major press conference this afternoon,” Biden told reporters at a White House meeting with cabinet secretaries.

“So I love you all, but I’d like to ask you to leave so we can get down to business.”

Biden’s staff later told the press corps the president misspoke, possibly thinking of an interview with MSNBC “11th Hour” host Stephanie Ruhle that is set to air at 10 p.m. Friday — when many would-be viewers will be out marking Cinco de Mayo with a tequila or Mexican beer.

As reporters continued to shout questions, Biden added: “I’ll be happy to talk to you about that, but not now … we’ll get a chance to talk about all of those things, I promise you.”

Confirming Biden’s confusion, his press aides declared a “lid” for pool reporters at 2:21 p.m., meaning there would be no additional live events to cover.

Whatever.

Interesting...
In Ham Radio, a “lid” is a poor operator — one who acts incompetently or improperly.

How did the most prosperous and free nation in the history of the world ever let it slip away so fast ?

It all started with the passage of the 19th amendment.

“It all started with the passage of the 19th amendment.”

I agree and I support the repeal of the 19th Amendment.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do”

In other words, finishing off what’s left of the USA isn’t easy.

If it’s MSNBC, it’s not a major event.

Aren’t White People committing racist cultural appropriation when they celebrate Cinco de Mayo?

I'm far more concerned about Biden mistaking the red missile launch button for the toilet flush

And it was $10.00.
