In this instance though the problem is not just her irritation, it's that she made a big, big deal out of being offended by Biden's wording, as we know, and now she appears annoyed that someone asked her opinion of an infinitely more grievous offender. So it hints at inconsistency. And that's a euphemism for hypocrisy.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
