From Fox News: Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Sunday that they didn’t mislead Americans about President Biden’s decline or ability to serve despite the president dropping out of the race after being faced with a February 2024 clip of him declaring the debate over Biden’s health was “right-wing propaganda.”
NBC News’ Kristen Welker confronted the senator with a clip of Schumer talking about Biden on February 13, 2024. Schumer said, “His mental acuity is great. It’s fine. It’s as good as it’s been over the years. All this right-wing propaganda that his mental acuity has declined is wrong.”
After playing the clip, Welker asked Schumer what he would tell Americans who think they were misled by top Democrats. Schumer reportedly told the president he needed to drop out of the race after the debate.
Defiantly, Schumer declared, “Look, we didn’t. Let’s look at President Biden. He’s had an amazing record. The legislation we passed, one of the most significant groups of legislation since Lyndon Johnson’s great society, putting in 235 judges, a record, and he’s a patriot. He’s a great guy, and when he stepped down he did it on his own because he thought it was better, not only for the Democratic Party, for America. We should all salute him. We should all salute him.”
Welker refused to let it go, asking Schumer if he thought Biden could have served a second term if he had stayed in the race.
Schumer dodged, but claimed that Biden will “go down in history as a really outstanding president.”
