If you thought White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre’s response to today’s deadly shooting at Covenant School in Nashville, Tennessee, was bad, wait until you find out how President Joe Biden handled the news.

‘It’s sick … It’s heartbreaking. A family’s worst nightmare.’ — Pres. Biden said gun violence is ‘ripping the soul’ of the U.S. apart following the school shooting in Nashville. Biden called for a assault weapons ban after police reports of the weapons the shooter carried. pic.twitter.com/lT2hIgzhIG

OK, so in fairness, you no doubt totally expected Biden to politicize the shooting. It’s just what he does. It’s just what the Democratic Party does. It’s appalling, but not surprising.
What’s appalling and somewhat surprising is what else Biden discussed during that same press event:
Did he say this before or after he made jokes about ice cream? https://t.co/6h9YErZHkj

Wait … jokes about ice cream? What? No way would he talk about ice cream on the heels of learning that three children and three adults were murdered in cold blood at a private Christian school.
Except that’s exactly what he did:
Biden: "My name is Joe Biden. I'm Dr. Jill Biden's husband. And I ate Jeni's ice cream. Chocolate chip. I came down because I heard there was chocolate chip ice cream. I have a whole refrigerator full upstairs." pic.twitter.com/W3vu3XXSgU

Ice. Cream. He’s talking about ice cream. People are dead and he’s grinning about effing ice cream.
Wait.. was this in the same briefing where he talked about the shooting? https://t.co/5LOIIgLeXN

Of course it was!
And would you believe it gets even ickier? You’d better believe it:

How do you spell “inappropriate”? B-I-D-E-N.
In the wake of a school shooting, Joe Biden says he came down to speak because he heard there was ice cream and gets distracted by “good looking kids” in the audience. pic.twitter.com/7d3Utjn0Uv

Why is anyone in the audience laughing? There is literally nothing funny about any of this.

What. In the hell. Is this.

The President of the United States has acknowledged the murder of innocent people by politicizing their deaths and talking about ice cream.
