CNN Republican commentator Scott Jennings believes President Joe Biden will leave office “in disgrace.”
During a CNN panel, Karen Finney, a Democrat, expressed that she felt “Joe Biden’s record with regard to the things that he’s accomplished, I think will stand the test of time.”
“It was very disturbing to learn late in the year about just how bad, how poor his health has become. And like many, I did not realize that it had gotten to that point,” she said during the segment on Sunday. “That being said, I think he’s still look, he showed up for the job. He got the work done. I think some of the accomplishments also in the Middle East and foreign policy will also stand the test of time.”
Jennings pressed Finney, then added, “Look, I think he’s going to I think he’s going to leave office in disgrace.”
“The Hunter Biden pardon was disgraceful. He’s going to be remembered largely for inflation and for the disastrous Afghanistan pullout,” Jennings declared.
He continued: “And I think as we continue to we’re just getting the first draft of this now. But as we continue to learn about the massive cover-up that went on, not about his health, but about his mental acuity to cover that up, the efforts that were undertaken by the White House staff, by his family, not in the last couple of months, but for all four years. I think it’s going to be a really ugly chapter. It’s a diminished presidency because of it.”

The conversation comes amid a recent report by The Wall Street Journal titled, “How the White House Functioned With a Diminished Biden in Charge.”
“Presidents always have gatekeepers. But in Biden’s case, the walls around him were higher and the controls greater, according to Democratic lawmakers, donors and aides who worked for Biden and other administrations. There were limits over who Biden spoke with, limits on what they said to him and limits around the sources of information he consumed,” the report read.
