Hanity finds it humiliating
This week, asked by ABC News if he considered Vladimir Putin a “killer,” President Biden responded in the affirmative. Putin responded by challenging Biden to a debate this weekend. At this point, Donald Trump’s allies immediately weighed in on Putin’s side.
Putin “is openly mocking the president of the United States for his own amusement,” Fox News host Sean Hannity proclaimed last night, “and frankly, I find it, as an American citizen, humiliating.”
Junior got in on the act.
Yeah right Biden is the empty suit.
What’s more significant is the context of Putin’s taunt. Biden’s response was a reference to Trump’s repeated refusal to acknowledge that Putin murders his political opposition in a way American presidents don’t. In 2015, he batted away Joe Scarborough’s accusation against Putin by responding, “Well, I think that our country does plenty of killing too, Joe.” In 2017, when Bill O’Reilly tried the same argument, he shot back, “There are a lot of killers. We have a lot of killers. Well, you think our country is so innocent?”
As Jonathan Chait points out, funny how Putin never challenged Trump to a debate. It’s not because Putin thought he would lose…
Pootie Poot trying to be relevant again, and perennially irrelevant Donnie Dipshit Jr. with the schoolyard taunts. Hannity has good reason to be humiliated. We’ll see if Biden takes any of this arm flailing seriously.
This seems to be the salient point here. They’re accusing Biden of being weak because… he didn’t side with the bully?
It’s consistent, I’ll give it that.
