Fox News
2020 Biden campaign aide Ashley Allison said she felt "lied to" on Wednesday in response to new revelations from former White House chief of staff Ron Klain about the former president.
Allison said, "Yes. I think I hadn't been around the president before that debate, and I worked for Joe Biden. And if the people around him knew that he was not capable, it is unacceptable to me that they allowed him to go onto that stage. I deserve better as a voter, not even as a Democrat, as a voter and as an American, I do." Hanna Panreck is an associate editor at Fox News.
Ron Klain told author Chris Whipple that former President Biden was "fatigued, befuddled, and disengaged" during debate preparation, according to an excerpt from Whipple's new book, as reported by The Guardian. He also reportedly told Whipple that he was "startled" by Biden's exhaustion and said the former president seemed "out of it."
