Karine Jean-Pierre has filled in for Jen Psaki enough times that this transition from Deputy to Press Secretary should not have been difficult.
Having said that, after seeing her performances before Psaki left, I warned that this was a train wreck waiting to happen.
My crystal ball was accurate, as she is getting crushed by the media after a horrific day one.
Excruciating to Watch
Fox News’ Peter Doocy absolutely demolished Jean-Pierre during her first presser.
When asked how raising corporate taxes helps inflation, she had no answer.
After dancing around the question several times, she finally gave this answer, apparently reading from the wrong cue card on the dais…
The media destroyed her after the presser.
Commentator Carmine Sabia stated, “Karine Jean-Pierre spent near 3 minutes on this and never answered the question Doocy asked her.”
Real Clear News White House reporter Philip Wegmann added, “She talks about the need for an equitable tax code and collective bargaining and climate change but does not address the root question.”
Manhattan Institute senior fellow Brian Riedl reiterated my point, stating, “This is excruciating to watch.
“Not only is she answering the question by reading from pre-written notes, but she seemed to have turned to the wrong page because she is not even remotely addressing the question topic (inflation).”
Considering corporate taxation to fight inflation was a Joe Biden talking point, one would have thought she would have been armed to the teeth with data on this, but she wasn’t, and that is because the data does not exist.
Psaki was bad, but Jean-Pierre is an absolute train wreck.

Out of the frying pan into the fire!!! Pretty sad effort. I’m sure she was patted on the back by her handlers but she obviously was not prepared.
Rerun Psaki OK
AWE, come on GUYS, what does ability have to do with IT. In this administration only COLOR and GENDER COUNTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything is blowing up in bidens face, no leadership skills, total family corruption, his America last policy has made him a traitor to the American people. Secure our borders, stop the drugs, once impeachment starts all the BS will be reversed. Jail time for all who have lied to Congress and broke their oath of office.
So we’ve gone from Peppermint Patty to Pitiful Pierre! This administration needs leadership so bad it hurts! When they start looking at qualifications instead of gender, race, or position they might finally find some qualified individuals! Not holding my breath but anything is possible! 😢
