During a White House event on Sunday, President Biden made headlines not only for signing the Social Security Fairness Act, but also for his pointed remarks directed at the press. Following the signing, Biden addressed questions from attendees, including one regarding former President Trump's impact on democracy. Biden affirmed his belief that Trump's actions posed a "genuine threat."

The event took a contentious turn when Biden, responding to a question about birthright citizenship, directed a comment towards the assembled reporters: "I might be the oldest president, but I know more world leaders than any one of you have ever met in your whole life!" This statement ignited immediate reactions on social media, with some commentators criticizing Biden's tone and others defending his experience. Several journalists and political commentators weighed in, offering a mix of humorous and critical perspectives on the president's remarks.

This isn't the first time Biden has engaged in tense exchanges with the press. He has a history of responding sharply to reporters' questions, sometimes with personal jabs. One notable instance involved a sarcastic response to a reporter's question about negotiating a hostage deal. In another incident, Biden privately referred to Fox News reporter Peter Doocy with a derogatory term, though he later apologized. These instances highlight a pattern of strained interactions between the president and members of the media.
