When Joe Biden ran for President in 2020, he made countless promises to be transparent and honest with the American public.
However, most Americans would agree that Joe Biden and his administration have been anything but honest and transparent.
And Karine Jean-Pierre just made one bizarre move that set the internet on fire.
Joe Biden has his lips sealed when it comes to his many legal woes
Transparency is a common campaign promise in American politics.
Joe Biden certainly has thrown this word around quite a bit over the years.
However, most Americans have struggled to see exactly what Joe Biden and his administration have been transparent about.
Joe Biden has been particularly candid about his legal woes and the investigations swirling around him and his son Hunter Biden.
At Wednesday’s White House Press Briefing, New York Post White House correspondent Steven Nelson seized on the opportunity to uncover more information about the ongoing corruption charges against Hunter Biden.
Nelson asked Joe Biden’s Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, “can you explain why the President interacted with so many of his son’s foreign business associates? More than half of voters told CNN they believe the President was involved and he lied! You can’t have a response to that, Karine?”
However, Jean-Pierre refused to answer his question and immediately packed up her bags and walked away from the podium.
This cold reaction unleashed a firestorm of criticism online from politicians, pundits, and even comedians.
Comedian Tim Young claimed on social media that “KJP runs away from questions about Biden working with Hunter’s business associates…And the fact that Americans believe Joe to be a complete liar.”
Congressman Bob Barr said “this Administration is completely dysfunctional and corrupt, yet the mainstream media and Democrat Party blithely act or pretend it is a perfectly normal situation. And sadly, perhaps it is the ‘new normal.’”
Since taking the position of White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre has received considerable backlash for what many believe to be a poor job performance.
Rarely does Karine Jean-Pierre take difficult questions, and when she does, she often fails to provide any meaningful answers, even going as far as to get combative with reporters.
Many pundits believe that Karine Jean-Pierre’s inability to effectively respond to criticism is symptomatic of the regime’s handling of sensitive issues like the Hunter Biden investigations.
Joe Biden’s inability to effectively communicate only adds fuel to the fire
Whether it is Karine Jean-Pierre’s walkouts or Joe Biden’s inability to complete an entire sentence, many Americans are growing tired of the lack of effective communication coming from the administration.
Instead of being transparent, Joe Biden and his administration have kept their lips sealed about nearly every controversial issue presented to them.
This may have worked for him when he served as Vice President under Barack Obama.
But based on his embarrassingly low approval ratings, this strategy does not appear to be working for him as President.
