Doocy touches a nerve.
In this short clip from a press briefing, reporter Peter Doocy raised the issue of Hunter’s 4-year-old daughter with his stripper Baby Mama, a grandchild Biden only recently, and reluctantly, even acknowledged.
Uncle Joe’s snarky response demonstrates that he is quite touchy about the subject. Check out the very short clip below:

JOE BIDEN is known as a serial liar, a "public servant" who has somehow managed to accrue tremendous wealth, a race-baiting opportunist, a Catholic-in-name-only, and a bought-and-paid-for politician in bed with criminal cartels and foreign foes. In another era, Joe Biden would have been run out of his country much the same way Benedict Arnold was two and a half centuries ago; in an era when integrity, honor, fortitude, fidelity, and grit have been jettisoned for immorality, unscrupulousness, weakness, betrayal, and craven pliability, however, he is elevated to king sleazeball in a city drowning in sleaze.

WATCH: Joe Biden's 'Sad and Disturbing' Journey to Accepting His Granddaughter's Existence
The cruelty is the point, folks
What happened: President Joe Biden finally acknowledged his seventh grandchild—a four-year-old girl named Navy Joan—more than three years after an Arkansas court established "with scientific certainty" that Hunter Biden was the child's father.
• The 80-year-old president admitted to having seven grandchildren in a statement provided to People magazine late Friday afternoon.
What they're saying: "This is not a political issue, it's a family matter," Biden said in the statement. "[Dr.] Jill and I only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy."
Why it matters: Biden claims to care about family more than anything else. Nevertheless, the president repeatedly refused to acknowledge his granddaughter and ordered White House staff to deny that she existed.
When asked to comment on the innocent little girl, Biden and his aides responded with a mix of indignation and indifference. Biden only relented after Maureen Dowd wrote a scathing column in the New York Times last month denouncing his behavior.
Crucial context: Hunter Biden claims to have no memory of a romantic encounter with the child's mother, Lunden Roberts. In his 2021 memoir, Hunter explained that during his crack-fueled "rampages," he would cavort with untold numbers of women who were "hardly the dating type."

Republican political strategist Scott Jennings set the record straight on President Joe Biden’s treatment of his seventh grandchild during a CNN panel on Sunday.
"It's not Republicans, with all due respect, who made Hunter Biden into a complete scumbag on this and other issues," Jennings said on CNN’s State of the Union. "The ignoring his own daughter, for four years! And the president of the United States hanging up a stocking for the dog, and not for his seventh grandchild!"
Jennings was responding to his fellow panelist, former Biden senior aide Michael LaRosa, who criticized Republicans for "weaponizing" the president's grandchild. CNN anchor Kasie Hunt said that Joe Biden has made "being a family man a central part of his political identity." She later interrupted Jennings to tell him to "keep this conversation respectful," saying we can "have sympathy for people who are struggling with addiction."
The discussion comes after the president finally acknowledged his seventh grandchild late Friday in a statement to People magazine. After years of refusing to acknowledge his granddaughter’s existence, Biden said he and first lady Jill Biden "only want what is best for all of our grandchildren, including Navy," the daughter of Hunter Biden and his former mistress Lunden Alexis Roberts.
The statement followed mounting pressure on Joe Biden to recognize Hunter Biden’s lovechild. A New York Times profile on the child and her mother published earlier this month preceded a piece by columnist Maureen Dowd declaring, "It’s Seven Grandkids, Mr. President."
Jennings reminded Hunt, "Where I’m from, a lot of families deal with addiction."
"You know who ends up picking up the pieces?" Jennings said. "The grandparents. And in this case, the grandparents would not acknowledge this little girl. It is offensive."
