In yet another embarrassing display for his administration, President Joe Biden smugly responded to reporters’ questions on Tuesday with silence.
Biden turned to his handlers as expected once he had finished his prepared remarks from a White House set on Tuesday, saying “you gotta let me know when I’m supposed to, uh, stop here.”

As the press was being shooed out of the room, there was apparently nothing else for the president to do but sit and watch as if amused by the spectacle.
At one point, a question could be heard, asking him “Do you think you may have underestimated Putin?”
There was no move by Biden to address the inquiry and his response was to continue sitting, almost smirking and staring before he began to pick his teeth while cameras still rolled.
As tensions escalate with Russia threatening to invade Ukraine, Biden managed a blustery response earlier in the day to Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“Who in the Lord’s name does Putin think gives him the right to declare new so-called countries on territory that belong to his neighbors? This is a flagrant violation of international law and demands a firm response from the international community,” Biden said.
A video montage flashback made the rounds on social media.

Biden’s embarrassing display as he ignored reporters’ questions amid multiple crises ignited plenty of reactions on Twitter.
I’ve never seen anyone look simultaneously smug and confused. He wears that expression a lot.

Well, nothing instills confidence like petulance (assuming he heard the question) and old man tooth picking
