we finally know who let Biden’s disastrous speech go forward!
It is widely accepted by pundits on both sides of the aisle that Joe Biden did himself no favors by delivering an unplanned speech to the nation in the wake of the release of the damning Hur report.
… So who pushed for the impromptu address to the nation? Who thought it was a good idea for Biden to go up there and lie about what the report actually said and then proceed to give credence to the report’s conclusion that Biden is an “elderly man with a poor memory” and that he lacks the “mental state of willfulness” by mixing up the leaders of Mexico and Egypt?
During Tuesday’s White House press briefing, we got an answer. According to press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, the decision was made by Joe Biden himself. [emphasis added]
Well, then let’s just see the transcript of the interview and we’ll see exactly how Hur came to his conclusions, since Joe Biden disputes the facts! Oh, except the White House itself refuses to release the transcript. Gee, I wonder why?
The White House has to know that it’s fighting a losing battle here. The transcript will only prove the report right, and refusing to release the transcript just makes it look like the administration is trying to hide something.
Well, they ARE hiding something! Trying, anyway.
