A CNN commentator has challenged Vice President Kamala Harris' claim that President Biden's health has remained stable throughout his presidency, asserting that "nobody believes" such a statement. The commentator also criticized Harris' defense of Biden's economic policies, suggesting that she lacks introspection and remorse for the administration's record.
CNN commentator Scott Jennings has dismissed Vice President Kamala Harris' defense of President Biden's health, claiming that "nobody believes" the assertion that Biden has enjoyed consistent good health throughout his presidency.
"I also thought it was interesting that she didn't take any responsibility at the end for telling the American people that Joe Biden was fine and he was strong when we all know that's not true, that's why he's out of the race," Jennings stated.

Harris recently ended her extended media silence by appearing on CNN's Dana Bash, where she defended her role in the Biden administration and affirmed that her values have remained unchanged despite major policy shifts.
Jennings pointed out that Harris maintained Biden's health was "fine," despite widespread skepticism and Biden's subsequent withdrawal from the presidential race. He questioned why Biden was not running if his health was indeed stable.

Jennings further criticized Harris' defense of Biden's economic policies, highlighting her lack of introspection and regret. He accused Harris of embracing a "continuation" of Biden's policies without acknowledging their potential shortcomings.
"She's making it clear that she will embrace and be a continuation of Biden's economic policy, his record, what they've done," Jennings said. "She offered no remorse, no regrets, no introspection about anything they've done."

Jennings also referred to Harris' price control plan, accusing her of blaming inflation on "this fantasy price gouging idea" rather than addressing the broader economic situation.
"I don't believe it's tenable," he said of Harris' campaign strategy.
Jennings' comments align with broader concerns raised by Republicans about Harris' potential candidacy and her role in the Biden administration. The White House and the Harris campaign have not yet responded to requests for comment.
It remains to be seen whether Jennings' skepticism about Harris' claims will resonate with voters. However, his remarks reflect a growing trend of questioning Biden's physical and mental fitness, as well as the effectiveness of his economic policies.
