White House press secretary Jen Psaki avoided responding to questions about whether President Biden still believed Gov. Andrew Cuomo is the “gold standard” in leadership during the coronavirus pandemic.”
Jonathan Karl said, “ Andrew Cuomo under fire for allegedly not being transparent and misleading on the number of nursing home deaths in New York. Last spring, President Biden cited Andrew Cuomo as the gold standard for leadership during the pandemic. Take a listen.”
In a video clip Biden said, “Your governor of New York has done one hell of a job. I think he’s sort of the gold standard.”
Karl said, “So, now, we’ve seen that Governor Cuomo has allegedly undercounted nursing home deaths, misled legislators in New York and he called the New York Assemblyman Ron Kim, raising questions basically threatening to destroy him, I think was his actual words. So does President Biden still consider Andrew Cuomo the gold standard when it comes to leadership on the pandemic?”
Psaki said, “Well, Jon, we work with Governor Cuomo just like we work with governors across the country. He’s also the chair of the NGA, so he plays an important role in ensuring that we are coordinating closely and getting assistance out to people of his state and states across the country. We’ll continue to do that. Of course, there will be a process, an investigations, we’ll leave that to others to determine how that path is going to move as we look forward. But we’ll continue to work with a range of governors, including of course Governor Cuomo, because we believe the people of New York, states across the country, need assistance not only to get through the pandemic but to get through this difficult economic time and that’s where our focus remains.”

Psaki said, “Well, it doesn’t always have to be a yes or no answer, Jon. I think the president is focused on his goal, his objectives as president of the United States. I’m not here to give new labels or names from the president, I’m here to communicate with you about what our focuses are and what his objectives are as president of the United States. He’ll continue to work with Governor Cuomo as well as other governors across the country. I’m not here to give new labels and names from the president. I’m here to communicate with our focuses are.”

Cuomo is the “gold standard” in leadership during the coronavirus pandemic.
"Goebbels Barbie"
An honest answer would allude to that being a NY problem.
Democrats have different standards.

Why is this news? What questions has she NOT dodged?
If she didn’t say no, she said yes.
Cliff Notes version:
Karl: *resident Biden has said Cuomo represents the “gold standard” with regard to his handling of the pandemic. Does Biden still think this?
Psaki: Um, oh, so, BS BS, BS.
Karl: Jen, you didn’t answer my question.
Psaki: Um, oh, so, BS BS, BS.
LOL!! At least she didn’t circle back :) And Karl’s question, which is a ‘gotcha,’ remains unanswered.
The Press Secretary just gave the Nuremberg Defense:
“I am just following orders.”
