Potato Psaki is pretty graceless at her job.

She's at Sean Spicer levels

she called the WH press pool an insane asylum even though she gets layup questions about swimming pools and Biden’s ice cream flavor choice. the (D)s have all the institutional power now though so making fun of the #fakenews media is quite alright again

I think she's been completely solid. It's telling that so far the right-wing has almost no material on her, beyond making fun of her use of "I'll circle back". We're back to criticism on the level of tan suits and dijon mustard. America is healing.

This is what happens when you're a diversity hire who hasn't faced actual strife.

A real pitcher gives you a fast ball and it nails you in the face.



She isn't prepared 60% of the time, says that she has to talk to experts and get back, but then she never follows up.

Then there is the lying about basic scientific details ie: the Trump vaccine numbers VS Biden.

She isn't blatantly racist like a few of Biden's other picks, so I will give her that. She could be much better at her Job.

better to circle back than just constantly say "i think the president made his stance very clear" when he was anything but clear and most of the time contradicted himself or just said confusing things if he was being "clear".

Yeah... I don't know how being honest about not having a specific answer goes against the Press Secretary, particularly in the first few weeks of the administration. Dr. Fauci said at the podium, "one of the new things about this administration, is if you don't know the answer, don't guess... just say you don't know the answer". I pointed out in this thread that Psaki didn't have an answer on Biden's position on the filibuster... the next day she did have an answer.

There's been some hubbub because Biden's communications team has asked journalists to submit questions in advance... but the whole point is so the Press Secretary can have an answer for them.

Again, this shows we're getting back to normal. The Press Secretary is having daily briefings, not shouting at reporters about crowd sizes, but telling them she'll get back on specific answers(which she apparently does). She's doing a good job.

stupid people are convinced by false confidence and flashy attire. my life insurance company used to do a tour of the upper peninsula and we'd fucking clean house on those idiots while wearing cheap JC Penny suits. i watched my manager multiple times just lie to their faces and tell me later the auditors would work it out with them on the phone at corporate.

they need softball questions like “what ice cream flavor today” in advance?
