Joe Biden quickly refused to give a comment and turned away from the media after being asked about the indictment of 45th President Donald Trump, which many conservatives believe to be political in nature.
Listening with his arms crossed and mouth hanging open as a woman asked him a question about the Trump indictment, Biden raised his hands defensively before formally offering no comment.
“I have no comment,” said Biden, showing raising his hands to show his palms to the camera. After trailing off, Biden added “At all.”
Biden, jaw agape, then looked left and right before turning and leaving the interaction. The camera, alongside the media procession, followed Biden as he meandered elsewhere in the room.

The 80-year-old refused to give a comment after making remarks at Nash Community College in Rocky Mount, North Carolina this afternoon. He and wife Jill Biden toured the community collegeas part of their “Investing in America Tour”.
However, Biden’s reception may have been less than supportive in the Tar Heel State. Local media outlet ABC11 reported:
Biden’s motorcade arrived at Nash Community College at 12:38 p.m. On his route, thin lines of onlookers took video of the motorcade. At least a half dozen bystanders displayed Trump 2024 flags. A Ukrainian flag flew from a Jeep. Other people waved.
Last night the former president revealed that Biden’s Department of Justice has indicted Trump on claims that he mishandled documents he declassified during the final days of his administration in January of 2021.
Immediately after Trump revealed the indictment, conservatives flocked to social media to show their support for the former president.
Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican candidate for president currently polling in the single digits, differentiated himself from his primary rivals by promising a pardon for Trump and any other victims of the Biden administration’s “politically motivated prosecutions” should he be elected president in 2024.
