On 11/9/2022, Joe Biden delivered remarks on the 2022 midterms and called on Preapproved List of 10 reporters.
Q: GOPs investigate you & Hunter Biden? A: “Lots of luck in your senior year … just almost comedy”
Reporter: Republicans have made it clear that if they do take control of the House, that they want to launch a raft of investigations on day one into your handling of Afghanistan, the border. They want to look into some of your Cabinet officials. They want to investigate you. They may even want to investigate your son. What’s your message to Republicans who are considering investigating your family and, particularly, your son Hunter’s business dealings?
Biden: “Lots of luck in your senior year,” as my coach used to say. Look, I think the American public want us to move on and get things done for them. And, you know, I heard that there were — it was reported — whether it’s accurate or not, I’m not sure — but it was reported many times that Republicans were saying, and the former President said, “How many times are you going to impeach Biden?” You know, impeachment proceedings against Bi- I mean, I think the — I think the American people will look at all of that for what it is. It’s just almost comedy.
Biden: open to any good ideas Republicans, but not walk away inflation, not climate, “let me say this: Regardless — regardless of what the final tally in these elections show — and there’s still some counting going on — I’m prepared to work with my Republican colleagues. The American people have made clear, I think, that they expect Republicans to be prepared to work with me as well.”
“I want to be very clear: I’m not going to support any Republican proposal that’s going to make inflation worse … And I’m not going to walk away from the historic commitments we just made to take on the climate crisis. They’re not compromise-able issues to me, and I won’t let it happen.”
Biden: “Whether or not [the Russians are] pulling back from Fallujah …” Biden said, “I didn’t have any in mind. You have asked the question whether or not, if I recall — whether or not — what would happen if, in fact, after the — this — I think the context is that whether or not they’re pulling back from Fallujah. And the — I mean, from the —”
Reporter: “Kherson.”
Biden: Kherson. The — the city of Kherson.
Biden started with, “Well, we had an election yesterday. (Laughter.) And it was a good day, I think, for democracy. And I think it was a good day for America. (Clears throat.) Excuse me, I’m a little hoarse. Our democracy has been tested in recent years. But with their votes, the American people have spoken and proven once again that democracy is who we are.”
“While we don’t know all of the results yet — at least, I don’t know them all yet — here’s what we do know. While the press and the pundits are predicting a giant red wave, it didn’t happen. And I know you were somewhat miffed by my — my obsessant [sic] optimism, but I felt good during the whole process. I thought we were going to do fine. While any seat lost is painful — some good Democrats didn’t win the — last night — Democrats had a strong night. And we lost fewer seats in the House of Representatives than any Democratic President’s first midterm election in the last 40 years. And we had the best midterms for governors since 1986. And another thing that we know is that voters spoke clearly about their concerns — about raising costs — the rising costs and the need to get inflation down.”
“we’re going to continue to fund the environment, et cetera. What — we have to — I hope — I think there’s a growing pressure, on the part of the American people, expecting both parties and all elements of both parties to — to work out their substantive differences”
