Joe Biden and his campaign are pitiful, but his despicable character makes it difficult to sympathize with him. Not to mention, his pathetic presidency. The desperate attempts to portray Biden as an effective leader have now reached a new low with the humiliating circus spectacle that was his campaign’s news conference on Tuesday morning outside the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse, where former President Donald Trump is on trial. As social media users pointed out, the event was a disaster from start to finish.
You read that right… Some idiot in Biden’s brain trust thought having a presser outside of Trump’s trial would make for good campaigning. This crap really writes itself.
By holding the conference outside the courthouse where Trump is facing charges of supposedly falsifying business records, the Biden campaign’s claims of impartiality regarding Trump’s prosecutions were exposed as lies. To make matters worse, the campaign featured actor Robert De Niro, known for his vulgar rants against Trump, and two Capitol police officers who have propagated the false narrative of an “insurrection” on January 6, 2021.
Everything about what the Biden campaign did this morning was absolutely hilarious.
They decided it would be great idea to show that Biden isn’t involved in prosecuting his political opponent by having a press conference outside the NYC courtroom where they also got the date… pic.twitter.com/qV6t4FieRt

Conservative commentator Greg Price captured the absurdity of the event on X, stating that “Everything about what the Biden campaign did this morning was absolutely hilarious.” Price mentions that the campaign was drowned out by Trump supporters chanting “FJB” and had to dodge questions about Biden’s involvement in multiple wars. The irony of the situation cannot be ignored – Biden, who ran on a platform of ending endless wars, now faces public scrutiny for his actions as president.
And while the Biden campaign desperately tried to paint the event as non-political, it failed spectacularly. The mere presence of these officials at the courthouse undoubtedly sends the message that these trials are politically motivated and have nothing to do with justice. It is disgraceful that the Biden campaign chose such a location and set of speakers for their news conference, further undermining their already faltering credibility.
Nothing says “this isn’t political” like the Biden campaign sending one of the most political movie stars in Hollywood to hold an embarrassing press conference outside the Trump trial.
The beeping horn car alarm is just the cherry on top.
DeNiro probably wanted another take. pic.twitter.com/0w59B0VAEN

Perhaps the most embarrassing aspect of the entire news conference was De Niro’s performance. Once regarded as a legendary actor, De Niro has now become known for his unhinged attacks on Trump. He appeared to be out of control during the conference, and even got into a shouting match with Trump supporters. It is clear that De Niro is not the right person to represent Biden’s campaign.
To top it all off, the loud honks of car horns and chants from Trump supporters could be heard throughout the event. This only served to highlight the stark contrast between Biden’s lackluster support and Trump’s loyal base in one of the most liberal cities in the country.
The news conference outside the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse was a complete disaster for the Biden campaign. It only succeeded in making Biden’s team look foolish, dishonest, and out of touch with the American people. The event did nothing to improve Biden’s chances in the upcoming election, and instead hilariously worsened his already struggling campaign.
It is a sad reflection of the state of our politics that a presidential campaign would resort to such a humiliating and ineffective publicity stunt. Biden and his campaign continue to show a lack of integrity and competence, making it clear that they are not fit to lead this country.
