Karine Jean-Pierre Gaslights: Biden ‘Is As Sharp As Ever’
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed on Wednesday that President Joe Biden is “as sharp as ever” as he faces growing calls to step down following his disastrous debate performance.
Her remarks come as the president, vice president, Biden’s campaign, and the Democratic Party have remained united publicly about Biden remaining as the party’s nominee heading into November.
A reporter asked Jean-Pierre during the press briefing if she believed “that the president is as sharp today as he was when he took this job” and if she’s noticed any kind of “slowdown.”
“What I can say is this is a president who is strong and resolute in delivering for the American people,” she claimed. “That’s what I see. I see a president, when I’m in, sitting in front of him, you know, going through the day or talking about what he’s doing next, he is someone that engages with us. He wants to know, he pushes us, he — you know, probes us, wanting to figure out, like, the bigger picture of whatever we’re trying to explain to him or even granular details.”
“He is as sharp as ever, as I have known him to be,” she continued. “In my engagement and my experience with him, I know, when I walk into the Oval Office or, or see him on Air Force One, I have to be on top of my game. I do. That’s just kind of my engagement with him and how it’s been for the past couple of years.”
@sunsporter1649 You think Hur recorded a confession and kept it secret🤣😂 DUUUDE!!! You are still ducking the question🤣😂
How do you explain the fact that the House Oversight Committee, who have been investigating Biden since Jan 2023, is STILL emptyhanded? Twenty six members and their staffs with nothing to show for 18 months of work except for an FBI FD-1023 form that exploded spectacularly upon contact with reality – how do you explain it??
@sunsporter1649 You are confused, ijit. YOU are the ijit trying to sell the phony bridge of "corrupt master criminal Joe biden."
How do you explain the fact that the House Oversight Committee, who have been investigating Biden since Jan 2023, is STILL emptyhanded? Twenty six republican members and their staffs with nothing to show for 18 months of work except for an FBI FD-1023 form that exploded spectacularly upon contact with reality – how do you explain it??
Oh, and let's not forget the Trump appointed Special Investigator John Durham! Touted as the 'lefts' worst nightmare,' Durham had all the subpoena powers of the DoJ and he spent FOUR YEARS investigating all thing Biden. Durham ALSO came up empty handed – how do you explain it??
The media has been gaslighting the public with the "Biden is as sharp as ever" narrative since people noticed his cognitive decline during his 2020 campaign. To be fair, Biden was never that sharp to begin with, so KJP might not be exaggerating as much as we may believe.
@BizSuitStacy That's why when their golden candidate was tossed out early on in 2020 they pushed BinBiden, so they could put in Kackler as his veep. Their plan was to Article 25 the Sniffer within 30 days in Fabruary 2021, however, they quickly realized that she made Quayle seem intelligent and decided to keep the geezer.
Well your candidate doesn't need to sharp. He just has to say emotional stuff... angry emotional stuff... true or not true? It doesn't matter, as long as he keeps saying angry stuff.
@Thinkerbell But your explanation or added content doesn't make sense. When you mention the border disaster, that's a thing that went on during his entire presidency (and pretty much every presidency before him for the last 20 years). So what you and Leopold (his quote is really clear too) were talking about, where Bidens' policies. And when it comes to those, according to you, Biden would win easily if it wasn't for the border. And what ever happened in the debate, has no bearing on that neither does it matter what the media say.
You are bringing in all this extra stuff, because it's just hard to talk about it. Just a couple of messages ago, what I said never happened. But once I gave you the receipts, then we had to talk about your media obsession, inflation, the debate... it's all pretty tiring to listen too when we can just go back and read what you said in that conversation.
Yes, yes, Kweki, Leo also made that same lame excuse.
It's really not a lame excuse... you can just read the transcript and check what was being said. The problem is just that for people like yourself, substance just ain't that important. What is important is aesthetics, emotions and conspiratorial meanderings. Your reasoning is as sharp as the memes you post and the short easily digestible social media posts that you read, because those are the things that educate you. And that's why it's so hard to care about substance. Because it requires a bit more concentration and it's just not that amusing.
Honestly, if I was an American citizen and I had the right to vote. I would vote for a potplant over Donald Trump. You can run a rotten banana against him, and it will still get my vote. Do you know why? Because Donald Trump represents a theocratic oligarchical project that doesn't give 1 cent about me because I'm not part of the oligarchical class and I'm not a christian. Next to that, the project Trump spearheads has no interest in protecting my health or my environment, because the project gladly sacrifices all of those to oligarchs that want to plunder the commons for their own financial gains. Or he lies about a pandemic, because he was afraid it would hurt him in the polls. In the mean time, Trumps project wages war on minorities, the free press, the freedom of speech, the right to protest, human rights and the rights that I have as a citizen. The supreme court that he helped to shape, actually is the first court in a long while, that took away a right that people had since 1973. Something he's taking credit for. He openly declares, that it's okay to strip citizens of their citizenship, when they don't fall in his favor. He doesn't respect democratic outcomes and can't accept defeat. He doesn't believe in expertise and weaponizes ignorance, which makes it easier to cut regulations for his oligarchical backers. He pampers to a christian clique that wants the federal gouvernement to establish a religion. He wants the state to dictate history, and history should be a mythical narrative that needs to be given in the schools sold as: "a pro-American curriculum that celebrates the truth". His movement is devoided of self-reflection, and any issues it might create are easily blamed on scapegoats that are gleefully bullied by those that can't take personal responsibility. And he openly states that it's okay to break the law, as long as it helps him win. He goes as far as having his lawyers argue in his favor, that the president is immune if they murder a political opponents as long as it's an official act as a president, making sure the law doesn't apply to him. So yeah... Pot plant Vs Authoritarian dictator... for me it's an easy choose.
BTW, if you and sunsporter, were trully and honestly caring about bad performances and sharpness, you would have left your sympathies for Donald Trump behind a long time ago. If you want to watch one of the better ones, just look at the AXIOS interview during the COVID years. That was wild. I don't really care that much about performance though, I rather look at the substance.
Did you hear that she published a book about her time as political director for John Edwards? In the book, she stated that she always had to paste a cheerful smile on her face, and get out there and LIE.
Obviously, that is why the Biden team hired her...for her vast experience in lying.
Don't underestimate the "Biden had a cold" excuse. The Democrats used the same tactic when Mitt Romney destroyed Obama in a debate. They claimed Obama was suffering from the altitude change (which I DO believe he was), and it worked.
Also never overestimate the attention span of the general American voting public, the dullards who decide elections.

Trump made 30,573 false or misleading claims during the four years of his presidency, according to a Washington Post tally. He was also convicted of fraud in February in a case that could ultimately cost him nearly half a billion dollars in fines, penalties and interest.
