    The 1st amendment does not guarantee anyone the right to ask The President questions.

    yet imagine if biden or obama had tried… just imagine

      If Biden had even entertained the idea of banning focks nooz it wouldve been 24 hour cycles on every right wing propaganda channel and the reds would be filing impeachment docs in a heartbeat

        [Edit to cater to sensibilities]

        Is telling the difference between a thought exercise and whataboutism that hard for you?

        Let me fill in that gap: a thought exercise is when you change a scenario so that the core idea can be explored under different circumstances, to see if it still holds up. It’s a way of deepening our understanding.

        Whataboutism is when you point to wrongdoing by someone else to make the current accusation seem invalid.

        If you can’t tell the two apart, shut up. If you can tell the two apart and you’re trying to subvert conversations with malicious intents, then we’re here to call you out.

          LOL that sounds like a whole lot of mental gymnastics, but let me spare you the burden of insulting me for no reason in the future and block you. Goodbye!

            Can’t be an insult if you keep proving it to be true.

            While it’s clear that you’re just a troll, the reply stands as the refutation of the poison you’re trying to inject.
