Reporter's ringing phone gives Biden a chance to let everybody know who's on his mind

President Biden delivered remarks about vaccines today and then took a few questions (miracles do happen). At one point a reporter’s phone rang, which was like an audio Rorschach test of sorts:

“If that’s Trump, tell him I’m busy,” Biden says after a reporter’s ring goes off

“Remember that we all have an obligation to accept the legitimacy of these elections,” Biden says at White House after Democratic losses in Nov. 2 elections.

When Biden was in Virginia campaigning for Terry McAuliffe he mentioned Trump’s name in his speech well over 20 times, and obviously Trump’s still living rent-free in a certain place.

At least the former president is still present in the White House in his own way, thanks to Biden.
