Reporter SCREAMS at Biden and Begs Him To Take Questions: ‘PRESIDENT BIDEN, PLEASE!’

A reporter who wanted President Joe Biden to answer her questions screamed at the top of her lungs in a vain effort to get Biden’s attention.

On Tuesday, Biden wrapped up his trip to Brazil, where he attended the G20 meeting and met with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.

As Biden boarded Air Force One, an unidentified report yelled at him to try to get his attention. In doing so, she had to compete with the engines of the Boeing 747. It is unclear whether Biden was ignoring her or could not hear her entreaties.

C-SPAN Communications Director Howard Mortman posted the clip on X for all to enjoy:

During her unsuccessful attempt, the reporter’s voice became louder and increasingly hilarious:

Mr. President, happy early birthday! For your birthday, will you talk to us, Sir? As a gift to the press, will you please talk to us?! Mr. President! PRESIDENT BIDEN, PLEASE! WE HAVEN’T HEARD FROM YOU ALL TRIP! MR. PRESIDENT!!!

The reporter’s final “MR. PRESIDENT!!!” was preternaturally visceral.

Biden, who turns 82 on Wednesday, has long faced complaints from reporters for being less accessible than past presidents. Given that the election is over and he is a lame-duck president, he may not feel particularly compelled to change that.
