White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany believes President Joe Biden will likely dodge questions during his press conference.
She told Fox News on Thursday, âI think heâs prepared to just entirely ignore whatever is asked of him and to pivot.â
McEnany added, âAny person up there at the podium is familiar with what a pivot is.â

Earlier this week, McEnany called on the media to ask Biden âreally hard questions,â as IJR reported.
McEnany told Fox Newsâs Sean Hannity, âIt is incredible what the Biden White House is able to get away with.â
When talking about the questions the media should ask of Biden, McEnany said, âAnd Iâm not just saying, you know, âWhat are your thoughts on the border?â Thatâs not a sufficient checking of the box question.â
She explained, âThey need to ask him, âYou say you blame this on Trump, explain to me specifically how this is Trumpâs fault when, in fact, numbers came down when he took historic immigration action in 2019. And theyâve gone up, and theyâre wearing Biden t-shirts, flying Biden flags.â
During Mondayâs appearance on Fox Newsâs âThe Faulkner Focus,â Trump argued the media protects Biden âtotally,â and his press conference would only include âsoftballsâ from the media.
He said there is no transparency from the Biden administration.
âI guess youâre supposed to have a press conference on Thursday ⌠Itâs ridiculous the questions that are asked. What did you have for dinner? What kind of ice cream do you have, as he walks out? They never talked to me that way. Thatâs OK,â Trump said.
The former president suggested the âway you get the press out is with press conferences.â Fox News noted Biden is the first president in a century to hold a solo press conference after more than 60 days.
âIf that were me that hasnât had a press conference for as long, with all the things going on, especially at the border, but really you have things as big as the border, weâre not going to be energy independent within three months,â Trump said.
Major networks cut away from Trumpâs press conference in November of 2020 after they accused him of making several false statements surrounding voter fraud following the presidential election.
