Harris Faulkner Says It’s ‘Obvious’ Biden Was ‘Physically Struggling’ To Answer Questions On Middle East, Hurricane

Fox News host Harris Faulkner noted Monday that President Joe Biden was “obviously” struggling to answer questions during a press conference at the White House where he was pelted with inquiries about the Middle East.

Biden initially gave a statement about the effects of Hurricane Helene in the southeastern United States before he was asked about the potential for full-scale war between Israel and the radical Islamic terrorist group Hezbollah following strikes that killed the organization’s top leaders. Biden has reportedly urged top administration officials to quickly secure a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas in the hopes of staving off a wider regional war, as his term is set to expire in the coming months.

Biden told a reporter who asked about the Middle East he wanted to stick with the response to the hurricane.

“So that was the president of the United States and it was obvious that he was physically struggling trying to answer questions,” Faulkner said, before cutting to an exchange between Biden and the reporter.

“I need to ask my team, what was he just asked? I want to know what that response to. Okay, let’s roll back that tape and see what he was asked, please. That’s important to know. He was clearly struggling. We have not been given any indications to his health or anything at this point, but he wrapped that quickly,” Faulkner said. “When the questions moved to the pending wider war in the Middle East, which you know that we have to pay attention to right now. Our homeland looks like a war zone after Hurricane Helene and there is an actual growing dual war zone across the world, one of them in the Middle East. I want to know what he turned around and said, because the question might have been – my team’s gonna tell me – what are we doing about all of it?”
