โPresident Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history. Why does the White House staff treat him like a baby?โ
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre became visibly agitated after receiving that question from Fox News Correspondent Peter Doocy.
Doocy asked the provocative question in response to revelations in a new book, claiming White House staff treat the 80-year-old president โlike a toddler.โ
Fox News has more, including Jean-Pierre's reaction:
โNo one treats the president of the United States, the commander in chief, like a baby. That's ridiculous. It's a ridiculous claim,โ Jean-Pierre responded.
Doocy citedย an upcoming bookย by The Atlantic's Franklin Foer, โThe Last Politician: Inside Joe Biden's White House and the Struggle for America's Future,โ in which the author writes that Biden, after appearing to call for regime change in Russia in March 2022, โfumed to friends about how he was treated like a toddler.โ
โWas John Kennedy ever babied like that?โ Biden asked, according to the book.
Jean-Pierre dismissed the excerpt, arguing that books inevitably get written about every administration with โa variety of claims.โ
When Jean-Pierre attempted to pivot to Biden's trip to the upcoming G20 summit in India, Doocy brought up a Wall Street Journal Poll showing two-thirds of Democrats believe Biden is too old to run for president.
โLook, here's what I know. Here's what I can speak to. I can speak to that โ a president who has wisdom. I can speak to a president who has experience. I can speak to a president who has done historic โ has taken historic action and has delivered in historic pieces of legislation. And that's important,โ an increasingly impatient Jean-Pierre retorted.

Bumbles biden still wears a diaper, so there’s that……
Biden is a idiot ! Put in office so Obama could finish off America. The Congress does nothing but talk. Mitch McConnell the zombie wouldn’t vote for impeachment of Joe but Mitch McConnell voted to impeach President Trump. Mitch McConnell is a traitor to America . He is not well and the doctor lied. Forget impeachment for Biden and Harris just arrest them for treason. Garland and Wray need arrested too.
Correction: I don’t think Mitch McConnell voted for Trump’s impeachment. However McConnell did blame Trump for the attack on the capital (which, BTW, I do not agree with).
Otherwise, I agree with your comments.
Stop treating Biden like a toddler, and start treating him for what he really is.
A criminally insane, dementia-infused, mental asylum candidate.
any wisdom Biden ever had has long since gone to the happy hunting grounds.
What this meat sack press sec is saying is books critical of Dimms are just lies and fabrications, but books written about Republicans are the undisputed truth.
Of course!!!
I’m glad somebody asks her those kind of questions, but he’s about the only one isn’t he? The rest of them are just there to spread the gospel according to Marx, the propaganda of the democrat party, and not report the toddler babbling of their moron in chief, Joe Biden.
It is very apparent the White House, the Democratic party in general, the media, his press Secretary Jean Pierre, the tech companies, ALL coddle Biden, and TRY to protect him from his dimentia-ridden self.
He is not capable of being the leader of the greatest nation in the world. We do not need a Wizard of Oz as our president. This country is becoming a third world nation under his watch.
exscert or excerpt?
Ok, so KJP says “Here’s what I can speak to. I can speak to that โ a president who has wisdom.(huh?I can speak to a president who has experience (in failures). I can speak to a president who has done historic โ has taken historic action and has delivered in historic pieces of legislation. And that’s important’.
She’s right on the legislation if you look at those as successful steps in destroying our country. (Parentheses mine)
