A Democratic lawmaker claimed the White House "overprotects" President Joe Biden and called on the president to be more front and center during his bid for reelection next year. The comments come in the wake of the president's recent cheat sheet controversy.
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) said the president does a good job without his staff coddling him, even when he makes mistakes.
“I think he’s actually really good. I think his staff overprotects him,” Khanna told Fox News's America's Newsroom on Friday.
“I think, put him out there in a press conference. Who cares if someone makes a gaffe? Every person makes a gaffe in conversations. Let’s see the authentic President Biden. He’s an empathetic person. And I think the more he’s out there, the better," he added.
Biden recently faced backlash over an image of him holding a "cheat sheet" with a picture of a Los Angeles Times reporter and an outline of her question on Wednesday. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre denied that the sheet was a cheat sheet and denied knowing the question that the reporter would ask. She said it was normal for the president to be briefed on who would ask the questions.
"It is entirely normal for a president to be briefed on reporters who will be asking questions at a press conference and issues that we expect they might ask about," Jean-Pierre told reporters Thursday.
**SNIP**
Khanna admitted age would be a factor in the next election, but he said he appreciated how Biden was open about addressing his age. However, he said he did not believe people should make the election all about the candidates.
“Elections aren’t about the candidates,” Khanna said. “They’re about the American people.”

Biden is as “present” as is possible for a man in his mental and physical condition. The media portrays a man who can barely work four hours a day for four days a week, as a competent leader who is “unifying” our nation. That “work” consists of a few prepared unintelligible remarks before a hand-picked audience and pre-selected “journalists”.
And the destruction of our nation marches on.
They’re saying that he works 6 hours a day, and his day doesn’t start until 10 am, but I think the handlers may be over stating on his time card. He’s paid almost half a million a year for that.
Cool gig for a criminal who has spent his whole life grifting,laundering and skimming,oh say, ten percent.
I don’t believe for a second that most of these idiots think Slow Joe is mentally capable. I think this is all theater so they can claim, “I had no idea!” when he drags us into a nuclear conflagration.
“I think, put him out there in a press conference. Who cares if someone makes a gaffe? Every person makes a gaffe in conversations. Let’s see the authentic President Biden. He’s an empathetic person. And I think the more he’s out there, the better,” he added.

Obviously Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) has be successfully gaslighted.
Everything is a lie from them. Everything. Can’t get a straight answer from any of them, they are all bent.
This is where your BS goes sideways…….Ro, no matter how “moderate” you pretend to be, you are still a lying liberal.
President Donald Trump, was carefully walking down an icy or rainy ramp, he held on to a handrail. For days afterwards media and democrats suggested his health was failing, possibly a stroke and should be removed as POTUS by the 25th amendment.
Everybody knows Senile Joe is just a figurehead, but the Democratic Party loses face if it’s too glaringly obvious.
YES - this farce of Joe Biden: Extremely popularly elected POTUS is getting increasingly harder to maintain...and yet everyone who is anyone (with a few notable exceptions like Elon Musk) is all in on supporting this farce. At this point, it will only take a little adversity to collapse this stupid regime.
You mind can’t be present if your brain is on permanent vacation.
The fake media has been propping up President Retard for a long time
This is nothin new
The truth hurts, don't it?
Now tell us what they ARE about.
Chief Showers-with-daughter loves getting presence. He could be present any moment now. But he really loves getting presents, like little girls’ hair to sniff ...
Biden’s cheat sheet is being glossed over by the enemedia.
If Trump had done this, there would be DOJ investigations of collusion, calls for a special prosecutor, and Congress would have impeachment hearings.
Unfortunately, a large percentage of his supporters don’t care if he’s senile and a complete fraud.
It isn't a controversy, Biden took a cheat sheet, and it was the DNC propaganda rag LA Times that committed the fraud then denied it.
NOW, THAT'S a 'true believer'...
