Biden allies say president is ‘sharp,’ special counsel criticism is ‘B.S.’
President Joe Biden’s allies on Sunday defended the commander in chief and blasted a special counsel report that questioned the president’s age and mental fitness as containing “gratuitous, unnecessary and inaccurate personal remarks.”
President Joe Biden’s allies on Sunday defended the commander in chief and blasted a special counsel report that questioned the president’s age and mental fitness as containing “gratuitous, unnecessary and inaccurate personal remarks.”
Mitch Landrieu, a former senior adviser to Biden who is now a national co-chair of his re-election campaign, told NBC News' “Meet the Press” that “this kind of sense that he’s not ready for this job is just a bucket of B.S. It’s so deep [that] your boots will get stuck under.”
Landrieu added that as a longtime adviser to Biden, he can testify to his mental acuity.
“I’ve been knowing him for 30 years. I have met with him personally. I’ve met with him with two people, five people, 10 people. I have been on trips with him, crisscrossing the country, rebuilding America based on this incredible infrastructure bill that was passed. And I’m telling you, this guy is tough. He’s smart. He’s on his game,” Landrieu said.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas offered a similar defense, calling Biden “sharp.”
