Biden’s national security team says he’s up for 4 more years
UPI | July 20, 2024 | Ehren WynderJuly 20 (UPI) — President Joe Biden’s national security advisers say he’s up to the job while former officials cast doubt on his ability to protect his legacy from Donald Trump.
National security adviser Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Joint Chiefs Chair C.Q. Brown at this week’s Aspen Security Forum in Colorado insisted Biden is fully capable of steering the United States through a global landscape marked by fears of Russian and Chinese aggression.
“I am damn glad we have that guy sitting at the head of the table in the Situation Room,” Sullivan said Friday in a press conference.
It’s rare for national security officials to voice their opinions about domestic partisan politics, but growing Democratic concerns about Biden’s fitness for office topped with the recent assassination attempt on Trump has made the topic virtually inevitable in national security discussions.
Sullivan, when pressed about Biden’s acuity, pointed to his alert and engaged response to Iran’s April 13 missile attack on Israel, which the United States helped fend off.
At that time, “you get to see in living color, in real time, the capacity of a commander-in-chief,” Sullivan said.
And apparently Kamala Harris’s way with words is spreading:
Brown echoed Sullivan’s testimony, saying “all the times I’ve been engaged with the president, he’s been engaged.”
Does the fake doctor know he’s engaged?
President Joe Biden’s national security advisers are still looking to fight the last war, so it stands to reason…
Well then, let’s get him the nomination…stat!
