Press briefings these days are a little more interesting than they would be without Peter Doocy.
As a youth Doocy was beaten by his few friends, acquaintances, total strangers and his family. And now, he has earned a degree of notoriety as Press Secretary Jen Psaki’s personal hacky sack. She delights in kicking him around the briefing room after he shows a ‘firm grasp’ of national matters by asking the most inane, off topic, irrelevant questions - questions he thinks are ‘gotcha’ questions.
The Press Secretary rolls her eyes and gives him a verbal spanking.
“If I don’t, he’ll be peeing and pooping all over the briefing room. We’ve seen it time and time again with these right wing wannabe journalists.”
.And he is fast becoming a punchline and cautionary tale to the rest of the world.
Even the way his name rolls off the tongue indicates like that he’s a total fuck up, God’s little practical joke. Not to be taken seriously - ever. Try it - say his name out loud a few times - see if you can do it without giggling an Anderson Cooper style giggle.
His daddy, Steve Doocy, bought him a BA in Poli Sci from Villanova where, reports indicate, he excelled in spending his time attempting to get laid without any cash exchanging hands and failing miserably at that task.
Journalists look forward to seeing him rise at the end of a long daily press briefing frustrating Jen and providing some comic relief to a COVID weary world.
Jen finds him funny. A mindless distraction in an otherwise hectic day. Taking his questions is like taking a coffee break for her.
And at the end of the day Jen gives him a swirly before stuffing him in a locker.
