President Donald Trump criticized the media for its presumed leniency toward Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden as he explained how he believes they are treated differently.
During the White House press briefing on Friday evening, Trump sounded off with remarks slamming the media after being asked about The Atlantic’s report, which focused on allegations about the president’s alleged remarks disparaging America’s war dead.
“I watched the interview with sleepy Joe Biden and.. you didn’t ask questions like that… They were like, meant for a child. Those questions were meant for a child. Smiles on faces of reporters — not like you and you,” Trump said.
He added, “They were smiles [on the reporters]. What do you think? Take a look at those questions that they asked him. They were not meant for a grown-up, they were meant for a child.”
Trump went on to slam The Atlantic’s report and the media’s treatment of Biden, deeming it “disgraceful.”
“When I have a report read like that from a third-grade magazine that’s not going to be in business much longer — I look at that and I think it’s a disgrace,” Trump continued as he shared his opinion of the report published in The Atlantic.
Trump added, “And then I watch Biden getting asked questions that are really meant for a child to answer, anybody could answer, and I look at the level of question that you people ask. I mean honestly, it’s disgraceful.”

Trump’s remarks came shortly after Biden took questions from the press. During the event, Biden slammed the president’s alleged remarks as he insisted the comments were “disgusting.”
“President Trump has demonstrated he has no sense of service, no loyalty to any cause other than himself,” Biden said. “That’s just another marker of how deeply President Trump and I disagree about the role of the president of the United States.”
