Kayleigh McEnany, former White House Press Secretary for President Donald Trump and current host of “Outnumbered” on Fox News, asked for answers from Jen Psaki, Biden’s former press secretary.
Jen Psaki had recently come clean about rising crime in the United States.
“I think that Democrats, if the election is about who is the most extreme, then they’re going to win. If it is a referendum on the president, they will lose. And they know that,” Psaki said.
“Crime is a huge vulnerability for Democrats. I would say one of the biggest vulnerabilities. And if you look at Pennsylvania, for example, what’s been interesting to me is it’s always you follow the money, and where people spending money.”
She went on to talk more specifically about crime and the election.
“And in Pennsylvania, the Republicans have been spending millions of dollars on the air on crime ads against Fetterman because that’s where they see his vulnerability.”
“So, yes, the economy is hanging over everything.”
“But you do have to look at state by state factors.”
“And crime is a huge issue in the Pennsylvania race,” she said.
Kayleigh had something to say about the comments.
McEnany said, “Jen Psaki is exactly right.”
“You don’t hear me say that often, but good for her for giving this really sober, clear-eyed assessment to her party.”
“If it’s a referendum on President Biden, Democrats lose.”
“She went on in that clip to say, ‘A weak kind of Achilles heel for my party is crime.’”
“And the immediate question I had was, ‘did you tell your boss that?’”
McEnany mentioned that Jen Psaki has access to President Joe Biden and wonders if she ever brought that up to Biden.
“She still would, presumably, especially if she had Oval Office walk-in privileges.”
“So I wonder if at any point she said to him, ‘Hey, Mr. President, this is a weak spot for us.’”
“Because we know it took President Biden six months into his presidency to even give an address on crime, to even acknowledge it as an issue.”
“Did she push for that to happen?”
“Because it is now the number four issue among voters,” she said.
Lara Trump recently spoke about rising crime in the United States on “The Big Sunday Show” on Fox.
“It’s the reason so many people have left New York,” Trump said.
“It’s the reason New York and California have lost congressional seats, Florida and Texas have gained congressional seats. … People don’t want to live like this. How do you exist when you don’t feel safe?”
The Democrat’s push to defund the police in 2020 was not a popular position for many Americans, who feel the effects of an increasingly unsafe America.
