The RNC launched a new attack on the president on Monday, but it wasn't quite as strong as they thought. During an exchange with Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, the president was portrayed as decent and compassionate by many critics of the organization. The RNC highlighted this moment when Biden promised federal relief. BIDEN: "May I say something?"GOV. BESHEAR: "You're the president." BIDEN: "I still have to ask permission." pic.twitter.com/A2sJSgt4MV

“Holy shit Joe Biden was just polite to somebody. What an idiot! This is going to be the end of him. Post post post!” - @RNCResearch

"the president is polite and treats people with respect" is not the dunk you think it is dodos

Next time these clowns try to tell you that they are the party of morality and decency, just remember that they think it's a *bad* thing to be polite. https://t.co/NqcE7OgiTv

I am convinced more and more that whoever runs this account is a rouge Biden backer..
They always make him look good in their terrible hits https://t.co/MpGjfLlAQi

Courtesy and humility are virtues--especially coming from the most powerful person on earth.
The decency of Joe Biden offers a profound contrast to the pathological narcissism of Donald Trump. https://t.co/cpGSTRS8RU

Wow. I get that y'all love TFG and his special brand of rudeness, but ragging on Biden's politeness isn't the flex you think it is. In fact, it says a lot about the way you think more than anything.

The fact that he laughs and says, "Kidding aside" here is what really makes this an even more extraordinarily weird hit. Admittedly, mild self effacing humor is not in today's GOP wheelhouse. https://t.co/MntIUiN88G

Imagine being so far gone as a political movement you think this video of the President of the United States showing humility and respect during a meeting on emergency relief is somehow damning. https://t.co/6ug70DcmbX

What an absolutely bizarre party and political movement. I have no idea what this is supposed to be, but anyone who believes this is a (1) gotcha, (2) sick burn or (3) Biden character flaw should be kept as far as possible from the levers of power. https://t.co/g3ZaSBjs5S

More than what you say, people remember how you make them feel. Treating other people with respect even when you don't have to is one of the best habits anyone can work on for building a better life. It's all the better that the most powerful man in the world still practices it. https://t.co/lFhKa604Ge

Man, what's going on at the RNC that it feels the need to show Biden being mannerly to a governor during a visit to a disaster-ridden state? https://t.co/AJ03vJKXkV
