Watch: Reporter Asks WH Press Sec if Biden Is ‘Woke’

In recent years, conservatives have been warning against “woke” politicians, corporations, and policies.

And on Tuesday, a reporter asked if President Joe Biden is “woke.”

During a press briefing, Newsmax reporter James Rosen noted, “One of the most prominent themes that we hear from both elected Republicans and candidates has to do with what is called ‘wokeism.’ And we hear about an ‘anti-woke’ agenda.”

“And so, we hear so much talk about ‘woke capitalism,’ a ‘woke military,’ and so on,” he continued before asking, “I wonder if we couldn’t begin with a threshold question to wit: Is President Biden woke?”

One reporter appeared to ask, “what?” when he heard the question.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre responded, “The President doesn’t concern himself about what Republicans are trying to do in creating political stunts, in making an issue out of the things that they feel benefits them politically — not the American people, not what matters to the American people, but what benefits them politically for their ability to move forward.”

Apparently unsatisfied by her response, Rosen asked, “So you wouldn’t describe him as ‘woke'”?

Jean-Pierre continued to say Biden wants to work with Republicans on “how we are going to build on the economic progress that we’re seeing.”
