Joe Biden just can’t seem to handle when reporters ask him a tough question.
Not only is Joe Biden prone to making gaffes, but he’s also known to have a short temper.
And Joe Biden flew off the rails when Fox News Channel’s Peter Doocy asked him this question about his son Hunter.
Biden lashes out
President Biden recently attended an event in the town of Belen, New Mexico to discuss jobs and manufacturing.
The Commander-in-Chief has been touring the West Coast in order to promote his economic agenda and discuss his administration’s key priorities.
On Wednesday evening, Biden lashed out at Fox News reporter Peter Doocy after he asked the President about something that made him uncomfortable.
The question referred to recent Congressional testimony given by ex-Hunter Biden associate Devon Archer, who stated that Hunter communicated with his father about his business dealings with foreign countries like China and Ukraine while he was serving as Vice President.
Archer said that Biden spoke approximately 20 times with Hunter’s business associates on the phone.
The testimony contradicts the President’s claim that he never talked about business with his son.
Doocy decided to bring the issue up in New Mexico by saying that “there’s this testimony now where one of your son’s former business associates is claiming that you were on speakerphone a lot with them talking business.”
“I never talked business with anybody,” Biden angrily replied. “And I knew you’d have a lousy question.”
The response prompted Doocy to dig deeper, but the President only answered “because it’s not true.”
But according to Archer, Hunter Biden used his father’s political influence to help secure lucrative deals with international business leaders.
He alleged that the phone calls were Hunter’s way of showing potential foreign business partners that he could secure some type of influence with his father.
The angry response from the President comes as the GOP and the House Oversight Committee continue to delve into the business dealings of the Biden family.
The current investigation includes an alleged bribery attempt where the CEO of Ukrainian energy company Burisma may have paid Hunter and another Biden family member $5 million each to get a Ukrainian prosecutor investigating the company fired.
Biden did concede that he got Ukrainian Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin fired, although he claims it was simply a matter of executing an already established foreign policy.
The spats continue
The exchange between Peter Doocy and President Biden is not the first time the two have come to verbal blows.
Last year, Biden got caught by a hot mic calling Doocy a “stupid son of a b***h” after he asked him a question about the economy.
Doocy just returned to work last week after some time away on paternity leave, and he’s already back to business.
Meanwhile, Joe Biden is still clearly unable to handle anything other than softball questions.
