Joe Biden tells Trump to ‘get a life’ and makes strange Netanyahu joke in bizarre end to Hurricane Milton briefing

Joe Biden mumbled through a public update on Hurricane Milton’s response, awkwardly ending the briefing with an attack on his predecessor and a joke about the Israeli-Hamas war.

The president told Donald Trump to “get a life” as he criticized the former president and his allies during the brief briefing for spreading disinformation about the federal government’s response to the simultaneous storms.

“It’s bizarre,” Biden said of claims online that FEMA is providing only $750 in aid and will try to seize Americans’ land if they contact the government for help.

As the president wrapped up the briefing, he was asked if he had spoken to Trump.

“Are you kidding me?” the 81-year-old chuckled awkwardly.

He then delivered a message to the former president: “Mr. President Trump, former President Trump – get a life man, help these people.”

As he started to walk out of the room, Biden stopped and turned abruptly when asked if he planned to hold the 2024 Republican nominee accountable for spreading lies.

“The public will hold him accountable. You better—the press,” he said, pointing a finger at the reporters, “hold him accountable because you know the truth.”

Asked if he plans to talk to Trump, Biden, without turning around and while standing halfway across the room, said, “No.”

Before that moment, Biden made a very off-color joke when a reporter tried to ask an off-topic question about the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas terrorists operating out of Gaza.

“What has Prime Minister Netanyahu told you about his plans for retaliation?” posed a reporter.

“He’s coming to help with the storm,” Biden clapped back.

The White House revealed that Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for 30 minutes about the conflict, but did not share specific details of their conversation.

As reporters continue to press for answers about the ongoing conflict, Biden and his team focused on continuing Thursday’s discussion on rescue, recovery and relief plans for Hurricanes Milton and Helene.

And the president wanted to make sure Americans don’t listen to what Trump says about the federal response.

“Our fellow Americans put their lives on the line to do this dangerous work and received – some received the death penalty yesterday (sic) as a result of reckless, irresponsible and ruthless disinformation and outright lies that continue to flow,” Biden said during his appearance . to confuse the words ‘threats’ and ‘punitive measures’.

“These lies also harm those who need help most,” Biden added in Thursday’s briefing. ‘Lives are at stake. People are in desperate situations.”

“Have the decency to tell them the truth,” he demanded of the former president.
