Fox News reporter Jacqui Heinrich grilled an irritated KJP over Joe Biden blaming his debate performance on having jet lag and a cold.

Here’s how it went…

HEINRICH asked: “How is it that the president was still tired 12 days after returning from Europe, had a cold but then went to the Waffle House and then the following day, staged such a huge comeback that he gave those North Carolina remarks? Help us understand…”

KJP interjected: “Have you had a cold before?”

HEINRICH: “Of course I have, but…”

KJP: Welp, come on, come on Jacqui. Let’s be very…

HEINRICH: It was 12 days after his return though and he blamed jet lag yesterday…

KJP: Hold on a second. There’s a cold. There’s a jet lag. You combine that. He continues to work for the Americna people day in and day out around the clock. Things happen. And the cold thing is something you all pointed out during the debate. We didn’t even point that out. You all pointed that out when you heard his voice being hoarse. Because he knew he had to push through….blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Let me just say that Politico reported the night of the debate that “A source familiar just texted to claim that Biden’s performance was due to a cold. But no one had mentioned that to reporters until Biden’s answers during the debate.”

The White House is trying to turn that around to say the media pointed out he had a cold, but I don’t believe that for a second. I think the Biden campaign put it out there because Biden was doing such a terrible job and they needed an excuse. So I call BS on what KJP said about that.

Otherwise, I love that Heinrich pushed KJP on this. It needed to be asked.
