During a recent press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed questions regarding President Biden's debate performance and health concerns. The President had previously attributed his poor debate showing to jetlag and health issues.
One reporter pointed out that despite Biden's claim of being affected by international travel, he had ample time to recover before the debate. Jean-Pierre reiterated that the President's travel schedule, presidential duties, debate preparation, jetlag, and a cold all contributed to his condition.
When pressed about the perceived shifting explanations, Jean-Pierre emphasized Biden's commitment to fulfilling his responsibilities and serving the American people. She highlighted the President's resilience in pushing through challenges, citing his post-debate rally in North Carolina and visit to a Waffle House.
Despite criticisms and questions surrounding Biden's health and debate performance, the White House continues to stand by the President's dedication to his duties and his determination to represent the interests of the American public.
