Uhhh, that’s a weird way to dance around the fact that Joe Biden in fact did NOT put out the statement himself.
Either that, or it’s the equivalent of a student’s poor attempt to reach the essay’s word count.
When have you ever received, let’s say, an apology from someone and told your friends, “Hey, x put out an apology on my voicemail… I mean, in their voice.” That would be interpreted as robotics by, hmmm, EVERYONE.
What the heck kind of crap is that? We’re just supposed to believe alive-n-thrivin’ Joe put out this statement now, gobble it up, and continue on our merry ways? Give me a break.
Now, I’ll play Devil’s advocate here and suggest that the statement could be considered an unofficially released statement. BUT. All of Biden’s answers are, and forever will be, pre-scripted.
Listen for yourself – that’s literally how Psaki worded it. SMH.
“The statement…we put out in the president’s name this morning, in his voice of course"
So does that mean the statement didn’t come from Joe Biden?
