“President Biden, on the 800,000 coronavirus deaths, do you have a statement on your responsibility? And why haven’t you asked China to do more to be transparent on the origins?” the reporter asked.
As he left for Kentucky on Wednesday morning, Joe Biden briefly took questions from a gaggle of reporters on the White House lawn.
One reporter asked him to address his responsibility for the 800,000 COVID deaths that have occurred under his watch, and why he hasn't pressed China to be more transparent on the origins of the virus.
Biden's response? He laughed and walked away.
