Well, there were a series of bizarre moments at the White House Easter Egg Roll.
This was just one of them when President Biden answered a reporter's question on Afghanistan
when he was suddenly whisked away, get this, by the Easter Bunny.
This latest awkward moment comes as The Hill reports President Biden told former President
Obama that he plans to run for a second term despite his lagging poll numbers.
Kennedy, I wonder a lot, I get asked a lot who's running the country, who is they telling
the president what to do.
There are far more sinister theories than the Easter Bunny, so I guess I'll take it.
I don't know.
I know the president and you would know this far better than anyone.
No one has proximity to the president.
Like no one can just reach out and touch the president, get within inches of that
person, because that is the most powerful person in the world.
So how is the Easter Bunny right up in his grill, waving in his face?
And why is that not a security threat?
And why was that giant rodent not tackled by the Secret Service?
And if if the bunny was a high placed operative, I want to know who that was.
And obviously that was someone that that's a minder.
You know, that that's part of the that's part of the machine.
That's, you know, one of the actors in The Truman Show trying to distract the principal.
And that's what was happening there.
And frankly, it's creepy because someone in that suit was told to give the president,
you know, the stop talking signal.
And by the way, if he was just being summoned to go to the Easter egg hunts, then someone
could just said, Mr. President, you're wanted at the Easter egg hunt.
And that would have been weird.
But the Easter Bunny waving in his face, scaring the living crap out of him.
That's weird.
Well, I don't know if the Easter Bunny is contracted to speak.
Good point.
Could be like a Disney character.
All he can do is, you know, I'm glad we showed the longer video of that rather than just
the close up, because you see the journey that the bunny made.
You're right.
There's nobody stopping him or her.
And how much planning went into it?
Maybe it was something that they were that they were concerned about beforehand.
And they're like, OK, you're going to wear the bunny suit.
Make sure he doesn't answer any questions, because because to your point, that's how
much planning goes into this stuff.
And I would imagine when you have a sort of non-cognizant person, even more planning
goes in.
Because he did put his arm around the president.
Like, come on.
No bueno.
And no, you make a great point, because I mean, in no universe would a member of my
press shop, certainly a lower level member, be able to just like walk up to President
Trump.
And maybe it speaks to the power of the press shop, if anything, to have this coordinated
plan in the Biden White House.
I don't know.
But, Emily, let's remember, this isn't the only time this Easter egg roll.
President Biden said they won't let me read, but he said something similar a lot.
Let's take a listen.
They're not going to let me read at all.
They will not let me understandably, I guess, cross the border and take a look at what's
going on in Ukraine.
Ladies and gentlemen, I gave me a list here.
The first person I was instructed to call on was Kelly O'Donnell of NBC.
I'll take your questions.
And as usual, folks, they gave me a list of the people I'm going to call on.
Any guess as to who they is, Emily?
I feel like we should amend those stickers that are on all the gas things instead of
I did this.
It should be like I did this.
And then underneath that, they told me to.
They my biggest pet peeve.
Grammatically, I hate it when people say that because of that vagueness, because of the
imprecision and coming out of the mouth of the commander in chief.
It just sounds ridiculous.
Maybe once or twice.
Sure.
But what he does is vest him of the power that we the people put into his hands.
It makes him seem weak and ineffective and even more incompetent than he already is.
And I'm sort of sick of it, frankly.
I'm sick of this Illuminati, Donnie Darko, Bunny, whoever it was, like I'm out of here.
It's just it's so annoying.
But despite that fragility, I've always said I think President Biden's running.
People tell me I'm crazy, but I just oh, I think he'll run.
He won.
He's apparently told a president.
Oh, my God.
That ego.
There's no way he's going to sit down.
Exactly.
And he's got his crew crazy enough to dress up like a bunny to come and save him.
I loved I loved what Charlie said, OK, now you're going to wear the bunny like they work
this out.
And the fact that they kind of had to shuffle.
That's why I like this video.
I don't know if they want to put that longer shot up again where the person in the bunny
suit puts an arm around the president and sort of because the president actually is
still standing there.
He's like, no, no, Afghanistan.
It's now the Afghan.
I mean, look at this.
And then he kind of goes to the next person and the bunny look.
The bunny's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
If he can speak.
I think Kennedy and I are still wondering whether or not he actually hi, I'm right here,
Mr. President.
Susan Price.
No complaints from the press corps.
You think they'd complain about this?
Let us know.
of access. But Charlie, if President Biden tells President Obama, I'm going to run, he may run into
some troubles. Our brain room digged up the numbers from last time an incumbent got a primary
challenge or a serious one and landed in a contested or a brokered convention. Check this
out. So when Reagan declared a primary challenge to Ford, 41 percent was Ford's approval. Kennedy
to Carter, Carter's approval was 32 percent. Last Quinnipiac had President Biden at 35 percent. So if
he does run, I mean, Buttigieg, I don't know. And I mean, they have nothing but bad options,
which is why which is why they're in the situation they're in. And it's and it's and of course,
the what we're going to see this fall will be a precursor to what we see in three years. But
that that that footage of the bunny rabbit and the president is a is is the perfect video of
this presidency and of our times. It is it is so beyond absurd. It is so ridiculous.
And, you know, and Biden comes off, you know, he kind of comes off as sort of harmless,
which is, of course, why President Obama picked him in the first place, because he was kind of
harmless and he makes everything seem sort of harmless. And go back to what you're saying
about the they thing. That's a really big issue. The idea that he keeps talking about they means
he's not president or somebody else is in charge. That's not how this whole thing works.
The way this works is people elect somebody to be president and then they are president and they
make the decisions or that by they I mean that person, you know, different. But but when he when
he starts talking about they being in charge, we're in deep that's deep, deep constitutional
because the left did not elect an empty vessel. They elected what they deemed to be a benign
individual, to your point about being harmless. Right. This was someone that was supposed to,
in their words, restore a semblance of of civility and and sort of bridging the gap,
restoring decorum, peace. Again, we've we've gotten, frankly, none of those things. Everything
has been exacerbated. Then obviously everything out of this policy has destroyed this country.
But in terms of he himself, all he has proven himself to be is this empty vessel. And he speaks
to that higher source, the they. And I'm not quite sure when that's going to stop,
because I don't know if we can take another three years of him essentially delegating power
elsewhere. Speak his mind on things the day, which I would assume include the White House
press secretary. Yes, it does. Jen Psaki, they come in and they and they clean up after him.
So you don't even know if they are on the same page. What's scarier, a geriatric man in cognitive
decline who actually has power or the faceless people around him who are pulling the levers
and ruining our lives. I think both of those are bad options. Just last week, you had Jen
Psaki cleaning up. He said he was going to Ukraine and she said we are not letting him.
So to your point, press secretary is among the we I would think. And I think and I think voters
are getting to the point where they sort of miss the the calm days of the Trump administration.
I think so. On to something there, Charlie, just.
