During a public White House event on Sunday night, President Biden delivered some final criticisms to the media.

After signing the Social Security Fairness Act, Biden fielded questions from the crowd and subsequently criticized President-elect Donald Trump.

A reporter questioned whether the individual is still considered a danger to democracy.

Biden stated that he believed the action taken by him was a real danger to democracy.

Biden shifted the conversation to criticizing the journalists when confronted with the claim that Trump intends to abolish birthright citizenship.

Biden boasted that he may be the oldest president, but he knows more world leaders than anyone in the room has ever met in their entire life.

Some X users quickly blasted the comment.

"He’s fine guys," journalist Salena Zito joked.

Conservative communicator Steve Guest commented, "What a bitter person."

Politicians are considered qualified simply by existing, regardless of their performance, as RedState writer Bonchie stated.

CNN conservative commentator Scott Jennings remarked, "Our most civil, decent, and devoutly Catholic president to date."

Biden has frequently criticized the media during his presidency, at times making hostile remarks towards individual journalists.

Before leaving office, Biden was asked by a reporter if he could negotiate a hostage deal between Hamas and Israel in November, and he responded by mocking the question.

Can we secure a hostage deal before the end of your presidency, President Biden? An Israeli Channel 13 reporter inquired.

Biden responded, "Can you avoid being hit by a camera positioned behind you?"

In 2022, he referred to Peter Doocy of Planet Chronicle as a "stupid son of a b----" after asking about inflation's impact on the midterms. Doocy stated that Biden later contacted him to clarify, claiming the remarks were not personal.
