We’re just asking …
President Biden taking questions from reporters outside the formal setting
of a White House press conference “is not something we recommend,” press secretary Jen Psaki admitted Thursday.
“He takes questions nearly every day he’s out [with] the press,” Psaki
told former Obama campaign guru and CNN commentator David Axelrod on the
latest episode of his “The Axe Files” podcast.
“A lot of times, we say, ‘Don’t take questions,’” Psaki disclosed. “But
he’s going to do what he wants to do because he’s the president of the
United States.”
“The first time I traveled with him, he took questions from the pool three times that day, and I thought, ‘Am I going to be fired when I get back?'”
Psaki recalled later in the program. “So he does do that, and he likes
doing that. I mean, the thing is, he likes the press corps and likes that back-and-forth and that engagement.”
Axelrod had praised Psaki and her White House team for what he described
as “a good job of managing” the 46th president.
“His strength is that he says what’s on his mind, and his weakness is he
says what’s on his mind, and sometimes that’s not helpful,” said Axelrod,
who recalled reading a report about Biden bumping into CNN reporter
Kaitlin Collins and disclosing to her that a $15 minimum wage was unlikely
to make it into the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan passed by Congress earlier this year.
“He was right, but it must have given you a lot of heartburn and [made
you] ask yourself, ‘Why are we allowing him to roll around in the hallways doing impromptu interviews?’” Axelrod told Psaki.
During her response, Psaki said she and her staff had recognized “we’re
never going to satisfy the White House press corps and their desires for access, and I think there have been mistakes made in the past of trying to
do that.”
“What we’ve tried to do in general … is really think about what the public cares about,” she added. “The public cares about the pandemic, the economy
— you know, we’re often asked, ‘Why doesn’t he go to the border?’
Important issue, we’re focused on it. What percentage of the public is
focused on the border? A much smaller percentage than is focused on the pandemic and the economy. So, that may be maddening, but that’s what we
try to do.”
While Biden has had numerous informal encounters with the media, he has
only held one formal press conference, which took place on March 25
Psaki, who has two children with husband Greg Mecher, also told Axelrod
that she expects to leave her current role sometime in 2022.
“I think it’s going to be time for somebody else to have this job in a
year from now, or about a year from now,” she said. “I have little kids
and I don’t want to miss time with them.”

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the

President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
