While speaking on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Reid insisted that Biden’s comments were far from the worst thing a president could say.

During a press event Monday afternoon, Doocy asked whether Biden thought inflation would be a “political liability” in the upcoming midterms.

“It’s a great asset, more inflation. What a stupid son of a b****,” Biden said sarcastically into a hot microphone.

The president later apologized for the remark and spoke to Doocy about it in a telephone call. Despite this, the president has been criticized for his words on social media.

Reid said there was an element of “snowflakery” in the complaints as some upset by about the remark have also laughed at the “let’s go Brandon” phrase, a codified “f*** Joe Biden.”

“Can I just tell you, I feel like this Republican crowd could not have survived Lyndon Baines Johnson,” Reid said when she was asked about the appropriateness of Biden’s comment.

She continued: “Lyndon Johnson used to say, ‘Come in here I am on the toilet, I need you, member of Congress or the Senate, to come to talk to me now, I’m going to flush before I’m done.’

“Total power play, this guy was vulgar, I am sure he called people much worse than a son of a b****.

“The snowflakery about people who love to say ’let’s go Brandon’ but it is like ‘oh my God, you can’t call Peter Doocy that’.

“Really? Grow up, that is not the worst thing a president has said. John McCain has said worse.”

Newsweek has contacted Reid for comment.

A video of the late Senator McCain has resurfaced showing him snap at Doocy over a question he asked him.

An exchange between him and Doocy from 2017 showed the reporter asking him about his relationship with then-President Donald Trump.

“Has your relationship with the president frayed to the point that you are not going to support anything that he comes to you and asks for?” Doocy asked.

“Why would you say something that stupid? Why would you ask something that dumb?” McCain answered.

“My job as a United States senator, as a senator from Arizona, which I was just re-elected to.

“You mean that I am somehow going to behave in a way that I’m going to block everything because of some personal disagreement That’s a dumb question.”
