‘Unbelievable’: Scott Jennings Doesn’t Let CNN Panelists Off The Hook As They Bring Up Trump’s Age

CNN senior political commentator Scott Jennings scoffed at his fellow “State of the Union” panelists Sunday as they suggested President Donald Trump is cognitively declining.

Corporate media rushed to highlight how Trump went off topic from affordability during his Friday speech in North Carolina by discussing his wife’s lingerie drawer, furniture, and other topics. CNN’s Bakari Sellers and Kate Bedingfield tried to blame Trump’s age during Sunday’s broadcast, prompting Jennings to argue they cannot attack his age after the alleged coverup of former President Joe Biden’s decline.

Like he’s extremely old, and he is burgeoning on senility, and we can see that. And the fact that we just went through a president who went through that, and Scott and Kristen, they can’t … They are not going to say anything without mentioning Joe Biden,” Sellers said.

“Are you really going to try this today?” Jennings pushed back. “Come on. Come on, Bakari. Unbelievable.”

“I mean, he’s talking about undergarments, panties. He’s talking about— it’s not a weave. That’s not what we’re seeing. We’re seeing somebody’s old uncle. I mean, let’s just call it what it is. Yes, yes, the American public saw Joe Biden get old and decrepit in the White House,” Sellers said.

Before Biden’s disastrous performance at the June 27, 2024 presidential debate, Democrats and legacy media outlets brushed off any concerns about Biden’s physical and mental decline despite his not appearing in public often and suffering several falls. The Democrats and corporate outlets initially branded these concerns as a “right-wing conspiracy” until after the debate.
