Note to MSNBC's Kasie Hunt: perhaps you might want to check your own tweets for self-contradictions before you post them. Such was the case on Friday when Hunt foolishly tweeted that Joe Biden stonewalled on a question about if he had talked to Mitch McConnell and in the very next sentence praised Biden for his supposed honesty.
The inevitable smackdown was both brutal as well as hilarious. Among the most cutting of the responses came from Glenn Greenwald who pointed out just how honest Biden really is.
Thank you so much for refusing to answer my questions and provide even the most minimal transparency about whether you spoke with the Senate majority leader. It's so refreshing to be treated this way, Mr. Biden. 😍

Dilbert creator, Scott Adams, also weighed in on how this is yet another example of the fraudulence of the media.
It's just comedy at this point, watching the media pretend to be legitimate.

Lyndsey Fifield, the Social Media Manager for the Heritage Foundation noted how absurdly sycophantic Hunt was acting towards Biden:
He didn’t answer the question and you’re slobbering over him like a golden retriever.

Finally we have a blast from the past video clip demonstrating just how honest Biden has been:
