    Huh, that's somehow not a joke.

    And whose fault is it that the that deal, the ceasefire for hostages has not been consummated? Is it Hamas or Israel or both?

    Biden: Hamas. Hamas could end this tomorrow. Hamas could say (unintelligible) and done period. And, but, and the last offer Israel made was very generous in terms of who they'd be willing to release, what they'd give in return, et cetera. Bibi is under enormous pressure on the hostages, on the hostages, and so he's prepared to do about anything to get the hostages back.

    I love my coherent president that is totally not suffering mental decline that one could start to expect from someone born before Hitler forbade the German 6th Army from retreating from Stalingrad.

    This whole thing is a depressing hoot

    But Mr. President, won’t your newly announced tariffs raise the prices on American consumers?

    Biden: No, because here's the deal. There's a difference. I made it clear to Putin from the very beginning that—I'm not, we're not engaging in…For example, Trump wants a 10% tariff on everything. That will raise the price of everything in America. [Editor’s note: Biden appeared to mean Xi here, not Putin.]
