“Kirby’s tongue-in-cheek reference was actually a callback to an exchange last week between Jean-Pierre and Bloomberg journalist Justin Sink, who had asked her about the White House’s alleged strategy of shielding the president from “impromptu” settings in light of his disastrous presidential debate performance.
The press secretary had denied that Biden had anything to hide regarding his competence for office and duly promised a “solo” press conference from the president, which prompted Sink to ask for more specifics: “Is that gonna be kind of the real, big boy press conference that we’re used to or…”
Deadpan face.
Sure. Just like the parkinson's expert visiting the WH? Got it.

He already has the questions, his staff is rehearsing answers with him.
A radio station just fired an on air employee for admitting the Biden campaign gave the station the questions to ask Biden ahead of time.
I hope the foreign media at least has the guts to not play this Stalinesque charade.

The entire world is watching the American president being congratulated for answering questions and being called a big boy by his staff.
We are a joke with a wandering, senile punchline.

The result is a lack of self-critical reflection and these kinds of screw ups.

Ugh, he should go already. The longer he stays, the more humiliating this becomes.

My prediction: it will be mediocre, neither as horrible as the debate nor excellent to let doubts rest.
So the agony will continue.

After Jill Biden congratulated Joe for answering every question after the debate, why would the WH refer to Biden’s upcoming press conference as a “big boy press conference?”
It makes Biden look like a child. It’s so odd. I can’t imagine any other administration referring to the president as a “big boy,” that’s what people call babies and toddlers when they are learning new skills. Optics are straight ass with Biden’s administration.
