Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer insisted that Democrats didn’t gaslight the public on President Biden’s cognitive state and hailed his accomplishments as commander-in-chief.
The top Senate Democrat also appeared to insinuate that Biden, 82, wasn’t experiencing a significant decline in his mental faculties, but sidestepped whether the outgoing president could’ve served another four years.
“Look, we didn’t,” Schumer (D-NY), 74, told NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday when asked about Americans who felt he and other top Democrats weren’t forthcoming about Biden’s mental acuity.
“Let’s look at President Biden. He’s had an amazing record. The legislation we passed, one of the most significant groups of legislation since the New Deal, since Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society, putting in 235 judges — a record,” Schumer continued.
“He’s a patriot. He’s a great guy. And when he stepped down, he did it on his own because he thought it was better, not only for the Democratic Party but for America. We should all salute him.”
