Rep. Pramila Jayapal Drops Perfect Response For Fox Reporter's Biden 'Decline' Talk
HuffPost
The Washington Democrat offered Hillary Vaughn a question of her own before she promptly walked into an elevator.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) declined to answer a Fox News correspondent’s question about President Joe Biden’s well-being by hitting back with an inquiry of her own on Capitol Hill.
“Do you think it’s OK to have a president where there’s this open question about whether or not he’s in cognitive decline?” asked Hillary Vaughn on Wednesday.
“Do you think it was OK to have Trump in cognitive decline for his entire four years?” said Jayapal before she promptly walked into an elevator.
Donald Trump’s cognition has also been questioned as the former president was reportedly unable to “keep a thought straight” in a meeting with CEOs, had “severe memory issues” during an interview with an author and publicly misnamed his former doctor.
The exchange arrives amid calls from Democrats for Biden to either prove that he has what it takes to be president another four years or abandon his reelection bid.
