Whitmer on if She Saw Signs of Biden’s Decline: ‘I Can’t Speak to That Directly’
Breitbart ^ | 05/16/2025 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 05/16/2025 5:51:19 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Thursday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) responded to questions on if she saw signs of President Joe Biden’s decline by saying that she didn’t see Biden that often and she “can’t speak to that directly.”

Co-host Pamela Brown asked, “You were a co-chair of the Biden-Harris campaign. You stuck with Biden until he dropped out of the race. Given your position in the campaign, what signs of decline did you notice?”

Whitmer responded, “I have not read the book. I can tell you this, that, if, as the book reports, Cabinet members didn’t have access, that tells you that — as a governor in a state halfway across the country who was working her tail off, 160 stops on a bus tour that I had lined through swing states, I didn’t — I was busy working. I was busy doing the connection and the voter registration. And so, I can’t speak to that directly.”

Brown then cut in to follow up, “So, you didn’t see signs of decline? So, you didn’t see any –.”

Whitmer responded, “I didn’t see the President frequently. And I can tell you, I can’t speak to that directly.”

She’s taking the Fifth! There’s going to be a lot of dancing around this issue over the next couple years as ambitious Dems who want to run for president try to put their part in one of the most monumental coverup scandals in US history behind them.

“”””You were a co-chair of the Biden-Harris campaign.””””

So, you are either flat out lying or you worked hard to get someone elected you had not fully investigated for their qualifications to lead the country.

Reminds me of that scene in Best Little Whorehouse In Texas where a reporter asks Gov. Lepetomaine a question and he goes into a song and dance routine called The Sidestep.

If you turn a blind eye, you can not see.

I never met or talked to Biden ever in my life—and I knew he was as senile as a fence post.

What a joke.

She will later say she never said this. That it was misinterpreted and the decline was obvious.

If she says no, she’s an idiot, she says yes, then why didn’t she do anything about it?
