Snub? What snub? Because he said he deserved it and didn't get it, that constitutes a snub??? There is a journalistic virus that causes its hosts to use language curiously framed from the rancid Trumpian perspective. What about "Ass kissing FIFA manufacture stupid award to appease man child".

Biden shows a bit of cognitive decline:
@jaketapper.bsky.social writes a whole ass book.
Trump falls asleep at his own cabinet meetings and daily acts like the most demented psychopath on Earth:
@jaketapper.bsky.social says "that's just Trump being Trump."
That's why Jake Tapper is a damn clown.
