This Fox News vaccine ‘gotcha’ wasn’t the slam dunk they thought it was and it’s brilliant

To the White House, where Fox News reporter Peter Doocy had a killer vaccine question for Joe Biden’s press secretary Jen Psaki.

At least, we presume he thought it was a killer question. But the only slam dunk was Psaki’s forensic comeback which was as enlightening (for some) as it was supremely satisfying.

Fox News’ Doocy: “I’m triple-vaxed … You’re triple-vaxed, still got COVID. Why is the president still referring to this as a pandemic of the unvaccinated?”

Does the White House have a First Aid room? Anyone?

Here are just a few of the comments it prompted after the brilliant clip went viral on Twitter.

Peter Doocy being alive to ask the question answers his question.

How is it possible anyone cannot understand when hospitals are at capacity and bursting at the seams and death toll is rising at an alarming rate not be able to understand why it is the “unvaccinated”pandemic. Besides common sense, have we lost all understanding of logic?

And finally, this.

A romantic comedy starring Peter Doocy and Jen Psaki is the movie America is waiting for.
