White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre found herself fielding tough questions from Fox News reporter Peter Doocy regarding President Joe Biden’s mental acuity in the wake of a recent incident where Biden appeared to confuse French President Emmanuel Macron with the late François Mitterrand, who died in 1996.
During Tuesday’s White House press briefing, Doocy pressed Jean-Pierre on how President Biden planned to reassure the three-quarters of voters who expressed concerns about his physical and mental health, citing the Las Vegas incident where Biden recounted a conversation with a French president who had passed away in 1996.
“I’m not even going to go down that rabbit hole with you, sir,” Jean-Pierre retorted to Doocy’s inquiry, visibly bristling at the line of questioning.
Persisting, Doocy challenged Jean-Pierre, asking, “What is the rabbit hole? He said he talked to Mitterrand.”
“You saw the president in Vegas, in California. You’ve seen the president in South Carolina. You saw him in Michigan. I’ll just leave it there,” Jean-Pierre responded, attempting to steer the conversation away from the topic.
Unfazed, Doocy quietly reiterated his question, expressing incredulity at Jean-Pierre’s dismissal of the issue. However, the press secretary moved on, leaving the matter unresolved.

He made a mistake . Wow ! Big News.
Meanwhile Citizen Trump was just told that he is going to be indicted on illegal and unconstitutional activities that he committed when he believed that as President he can send seal team six to assassinate his political rivals.
As Nikki Haley has pointed out Trump’s gaffes:
Trump accused Haley of being “in charge of security” at the Capitol on January 6, 2021.
Trump got confused and said he was running against Obama. ” He never ran against Obama!”
He slurs his words all the time now at every speech.
Funny but sad: Trump says he won the 2020 presidential election.
Actually, not funny at all.
OK, Trump never believed that as President he can send seal team six to assassinate his political rivals. And he never claimed that.
He did once, in the course of a long speech, say “Haley” instead of “Pelosi”. That was not a bad memory, it was a mere slip of the tongue. The context made it clear that he knew exactly who he was talking about.
He is running against 0bama; who do you think is running the “Biden” white house? Biden is clearly not in charge. It’s 0bama’s third term.
And it’s completely reasonable to suppose he did win the November election, and then had it stolen from him. It’s impossible to prove it, but there’s enough reason to suppose it may be true. There was definitely a lot of fraud, the only question is whether the result would have been the same without it.
