There's no way this guy received the most votes in U.S. history.

are we allowed to note how differently the press treats Biden compared to Trump, it's embarrassing.

[Laura-tpwz]

What he spoke for like 5 minutes than took scripted questions from chosen reporters and bumbled incoherently for the next

Not a real press conference, what a joke!

[chpsk]

That's one small step for an old man, one giant stumble for a nation.

[grdnfreeman]

Most popular president in history keeps getting ratio’d. Weird.

CRINGE. 80 million voters....I don’t think so 😂

I would call this "President Biden's first formal sh**show" but he's had 47 years of that.

[samsonsolomon]

Prearranged questions, prewritten answers, pre-recorded ‘live’ press conference. What an absolute embarrassment to America.

[mlrule]

"I am a nice guy." No you are the president and should be making hard decisions to protect the people of your country! Such a joke...

[IsThatWise]

Goodness me this is disturbing. Much of his response was incoherent gibberish.

[antoniopalmero]

I can’t watch this guy. Where’s the president ??.

[dobs]

The press are covering for him he obviously has demencia . He mumbles some complete rubbish for an answer and the repoters all nod and smile no wonder all the comment sections are turned off on all the US network sites .

[CharlesAgajanian]

I think this is the first presidential “press conference” to have the subject (the president) pick his own questions and call for the reporters by name, from a list, with pictures of their faces. That’s not a joke by the way, that actually happened.

[tommoroz]

Every channel covering this has more thumbs down then likes. Who voted this guy in? No way did he get elected

[mroche]

Softest press conference ever how on earth did he get elected

[novaguy]

This guy belongs in a senior care facility. Sad excuse for a president.

I want a dictionary where when you look up the definition of mental illness you see a guy opening up the boarders during a pandemic

[robinthompson]

This is like listening to your Grandfather tell stories after he has Dementia
