Democrat President Joe Biden snapped today when he was pressed on the baby formula shortage that’s hitting families across the country.
According to Biden, only “mind readers” could have prevented the shortage.
Biden said he would take a question on the formula shortage because “all of a sudden it’s on the front page of every newspaper.”
The president was asked why he didn’t take steps sooner to deal with the lack of baby formula.
“If we had been better mind readers, I guess we could’ve but we moved as quickly as the problem became apparent to us,” Biden fired back.

Not even CNN’s Jake Tapper brought Biden’s excuse.
“This is hardly the first time that there’s this slow-rolling anticipated disaster happening exactly as forewarned — whether it’s the exit from Afghanistan, the border surge,” Tapper said on CNN.

Biden continued:
“We’re going to be in a matter of weeks – or less – getting significantly where more formula is on shelves.
“This is a process we working very, very hard.
“There’s nothing more urgent we’re working on that right now.
“And I think we’re really making some significant progress,” he said.
