In a recent radio interview, the White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre acted stunned and shut down when asked a simple question of does President Joe Biden have dementia?
The White House is in full reelection mode and during a recent trip to North Carolina with the Vice President, Jean-Pierre went on a local radio interview with WBT Charlotte with news director Mark Garrison who asked if the president had dementia and it was the last thing she wanted to hear. The White House wanted to pitch the message of lower healthcare costs to the network but instead she melts down and hangs up the phone.
“When I told a number of people that I was talking to you today, it was interesting, though, they all said, ‘would you please just ask her, does the president have dementia?’ So before I move on from that, does he?” Garrison questioned.
“Mark, Mark, I can’t even believe you’re asking me this question,” the press secretary said extremely frustrated. “That is an incredibly offensive question to ask.”
“But, you know people ask it,” the radio host responded.
“Wait. Oh let me — no, no, no, no, no. You — Mark, you, you, you, you, you’re taking us down this rabbit hole. Let me, let me, let me be very clear about this,” the press secretary said stunned.
“For the past several years, the president’s physician has laid out very, in a comprehensive way, the president’s health,” she said. “This is a president, if you watch him every day, if you really pay attention to his record and what he has done, you will see exactly how focused he’s been on the American people, how historic his actions have been. And so I’m not even going to truly, truly, really, you know, take, take the premise of your question. I think it is incredibly insulting. And, and so we can, you know, we can move on to the next question.”
She then moved on to a question regarding grocery store prices giving a very deceptive answer followed by simply hanging up on Garrison.
Whats clear is just how bad the White House wants to change the subject of Biden’s age and mental capabilities to serve as president for another four years. However, they don’t have a plan on how to address these major concerns of the American people. Everyday it seems that Biden has senior moments and Americans have every right to question his supposed declining mental faculties. The press secretary of all people should have an eloquent answer to address these concerns.
Only a few days ago, the White House had to scramble to fix another Biden senior moment regarding his comments on the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore after a large container ship rammed into the trusses.
“At about 1:30, a container ship struck the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which I’ve been over many, many times commuting from the state of Delaware either on a train or by car,” Biden said Tuesday which caught the attention of the public because the bridge never had railroad tracks going over it.
The handlers for Biden are in constant damage control for his age and mental slip-ups not to mention the more severe accusations of mishandling classified materials, the Robert Hur report, and yes the very high costs of groceries which the press secretary was trying to explain away on the radio show before hanging up on the host.
