It all began when Fox News reporter Peter Doocy asked Biden a question about inflation, which is at a nearly 40-year high.
Biden, who ran a campaign that promised to “restore decency” and “unite America,” is quickly becoming one of the most divisive and disgusting leaders to ever hold office.
Doocy asked, “Do you think inflation is a political liability ahead of the midterms?” Biden’s polling numbers have crashed as low as 33% amid staggering inflation and high consumer prices.
Biden responded with sarcasm, “It’s a great asset — more inflation.” Then he shook his head and added, “What a stupid son of a b***h.”

Wait, wait, MAGAs… so you want us to believe #SleepyJoe is now #TemperTantrumJoe? Which is it kids?
Maybe your problem is that he's #CompetentDecentCompassionateJoe and you're not used to competency, decency, or compassion in a president. https://t.co/vPHl6UUx55— John Pavlovitz (@johnpavlovitz) January 25, 2022
This isn’t Biden’s first outburst. In December 2019, he appeared to call an Iowan voter “fat” and challenged him to a push-up contest.
He proceeded to call him a “d*** liar” for asking questions about his son, Hunter Biden. Watch the clip:
In March 2020, Biden told a campaign aide to “hush” when she tried to pull him away from the confrontation and told a Michigan voter that he was “full of s***.” WATCH:
