Joe Biden really imploded today.

He did that angry dementia thing, in a way it was very hard to ignore, losing it at a CNN reporter who asked a perfectly reasonable question to him.

CNN's @KaitlanCollins: "Why are you so confident [Putin] will change his behavior, Mr. President?"

Biden: "I'm not confident I'm going to change his behavior. What the hell? What do you do all the time? When did I say I was confident? I said….let's get it straight…." pic.twitter.com/h3wctccQRz

Of course, media being media immediately did their best to smooth it out and excuse it for him.

This is how CNN described what had occurred. Here’s CNN’s Jeff Zeleny spin on what you just saw. It doesn’t even begin to reflect reality.

President Biden tells @kaitlancollins he’s not confident Putin will change his behavior — but he made clear as he leaves Geneva that he is confident in his role on the world stage. This first trip, of course, is likely the easiest. But for now, he has a bounce in his step.

Now, they’re writing this, even with the video going viral. Yet, still, they’re trying to gaslight you about what happened. Imagine how much they are spinning about things where you don’t know what happened. This takes some kind of nerve to present it that way.

As we noted earlier, Biden’s people knew he had blown it big time so they rushed him out to apologize for losing it and being nasty to Collins.

“Maybe I shouldn’t have been such a wise guy, the last answer I gave,” says Biden, stopping to apologize to reporters before boarding his Air Force One

Biden made sure to walk to the press on the tarmac before boarding AF1 to apologize for being such "a wise guy" at the end of his press conference when he was answering @kaitlancollins tough questions.

But even then, even when supposedly apologizing, Biden still couldn’t stop carping that they actually dared to ask him a question and put him on the spot. He’s been so coddled by them, he gets bent out of shape when they bother to come close to doing their job.

His initial reaction looked like a classic dementia reaction to being challenged; it’s happened before and will happen again with him.

Even the reporter who he yelled at and insulted, CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, said that he didn’t need to apologize, that she was just doing her job.

Kaitlan Collins accepts Joe Biden’s apology on the air – noting that he didn’t have to do that, but adds that “it was not necessary” as she was just doing her job.

Now, everyone knows that if it had been President Donald Trump that said what Biden did, CNN would be exploding at him about it and Collins would have plenty to say about it. She wouldn’t be giving it a pass. Nor would the rest of CNN or media be quiet, they’d be all over it, 24/7.

But that’s the bottom line here. They can be pushed around by the Russians and have Biden laugh at that. They can have Biden be abusive and insult one of their own. They can have their people denied access to meetings and pushed out by White House officials and they’ll still lick Biden’s boots.
