"At no point did the teleprompter tell joe biden to say this."
-Anthony Blinken

[HealthyandLovingLife]

It looks like it caused him physical pain 😂😂😂

[Michael_Dominik]

To be fair, that's his reaction any time Biden deviates from the teleprompter

[micahmackinnon]

Oh my God everyone in the front row reacted in different ways this is golden.

[PD-ldsq]

That’s how the majority of Americans reacts when Biden speaks

[lxjilyfe]

you can see him sitting there nervously even before the question was asked

[Ericah]

Blinken has that kill me now look!😂😂😂😂😂

[TheOkieLife]

Body language speaks louder than words.

[rider]

Look at how Blinken rubs his fingers. Poor guy must be thinking "Oh f$#@, not again".

Watched it 25 times, gets funnier every fucking time, thanks Brandon.

His reaction was probably the reason China didn't overreact.
Xi was probably laughing at the whole thing.

[arinco]

That startled look from Blinken tells me a lot. Biden is going to get in trouble from his handlers.

[mlw]

Look, it's not about whether the statement is accurate. It's that we seem to have no one who is a grown-up diplomat anymore.

[joesr]

the simultaneous alertness at 0:05 of the people in the front row is kinda hilarious too, its as if they know he is gonna mess up

[dennismyl]

Instead of looking to create thriving relationships with China, he calls him out as a dictator. It's so disgusting hosting someone in your home and aweeks later talk so bad about him publicly.

[jaylenreed]

Y’a know this look from Blinken has to underscore just how difficult of a job it is to be the Secretary of State 😭

[kbro]

Blinken was thinking ouch that gonna cost us some money.

[mingdashe]

when your boss destroy your weeks of working

[cylenebrennan]

First truthful thing Biden ever said..I think he forgot to be a Pinocchio for a second.
