"Does the president have the stamina, physically and mentally, do you think to continue on even after 2024?"
"Don, you're asking me this question," a visibly stunned Jean-Pierre exclaimed. "Oh my gosh. He's the president of the United States."
The press secretary then laughed and told Lemon that she, 47, sometimes struggles to keep up with Biden, 79.
Keep up with the gaffe corrections, or his naps?
"That is not a question that we should be even asking," she added. "Just look at the work he does. And look how he's delivering for the American public."
That question was only appropriate for Trump.
Jean-Pierre then brushed off criticisms from a New York Times report that surfaced earlier this week that questioned the president’s mental capabilities as "hearsay" and "not what we care about."Right, nobody cares about the New York Times. Waitaminute...
The article quoted several prominent Democrats who questioned whether Biden was the best choice to lead the party into the 2024 election. Concerns about Biden’s age and ability to lead the Democratic Party have also extended to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 82, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, 71, Axios reported.
Jean-Pierre added: "We care about how we are going to deliver for the American people. How we're going to make their lives better. That's what the president talks about. That is his focus and that's what we'll continue to focus on."
He's doing a terrific job; just ask him!
