When asked a question about inflation by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy during a Monday press conference, President Joe Biden — apparently thinking his microphone was off — called Doocy a “stupid son of a bitch.”
Fox White House correspondent, Peter Doocy, got an earful from President Biden today after shouting a question about inflation. Doocy reports: This evening, President Biden called me to clear the air after a hot mic picked him up calling me a "stupid son of a bitch" "Nothing personal, pal" Biden said a few times on the call. I told him that I’ll always ask about different topics than the rest of the press corps.
Doocy asked the president if he would "take questions about inflation" as a White House event on Biden administration efforts against inflation was wrapping up.As Doocy was being escorted out of the building, Biden who appeared to believe his microphone was off, could be heard responding sarcastically, "No, that’s a great asset. More inflation. What a stupid son of a bitch."
Later on, Biden called to "clear the air" according to Doocy. Biden reportedly told Doocy that his comments were "nothing personal" and encouraged the Fox News reporter to continue asking about different topics than the rest of the press corps. Doocy has engaged in political jousting with the Biden administration in the past. During one of his rare news conferences as president, Joe Biden found himself in a heated exchange with Doocy who has been relentlessly critical of Biden. During an event on lowering prices for American families, President Biden was caught on a hot mic calling Fox News' Peter Doocy 'a stupid son of a bitch' after Doocy asked a question about inflation.
