‘Read the room’: Joe Biden’s awkward announcement during raging LA wildfires

Sky News host Caroline Marcus has reacted to US President Joe Biden announcing he is a great grandfather during a briefing about the raging Los Angeles wildfires.

The timing of the announcement is being criticised.

“Seriously, read the room,” Ms Marcus said.

“Now is not the time Joe.”

He and the whole family also ignore one grand-daughter because she was 'illegitimate'.

Remember, after the fire stops and the rain starts, there will be mud slides. DON'T ACT SURPRISED !

Call for the IMMEDIATE resignation of Gavin Newsom.

They should all be arrested, this is complete mismanagement on a grand scale

[boxerdally]

The three stooges standing there at press conference then Biden dribbles again

[opinioned]

The real question is why Newsom had Biden fly out at all.

Typical Brandon. If these fires were in Ukraine big money and aid would be flowing

[Capt.]

We should expect something like that from him. The citizens of California are in a fight for their lives so it's time to send more money to a foreign country.

He also gave another $500 mil to his buddy, Zelensky.

Did he bring up his kitchen fire? I think an update would be well received.

🤔🤔🤔🙄🙄😬 not appropriate time to say your family's good news while people died, lost their houses, their animals're dead, wildlife animals died in the cruel bushfire like this 😢💔

Joey's motto: I, me, my, mine. I lead by example.

[RaisinBran-iriq]

"The president is coming to LA and will address the wildfire damage."
"President Trump?"
"No, Biden."
"Well, shlt."

And Anytime He's at a Funeral He always brings up his Son that Died.

[gerardleon]

Joe's motto: "It's all about me"

[linnetteklumpp]

Hopefully Hunter isn't the daddy.

[garywatson]

Come on now, we all know that it's all about Joe.

[Truth]

Biden I just saved 15% on my car insurance by switching to Geico.
Room stares

[dovetonsturdee]

Pity the poor child. Imagine learning later in life that that was your great-grandfather.

President Joetato: I know you're all suffering, but hey, I'm doing great
