Scott Jennings: Dems Have ‘No One to Blame but Themselves’ for Biden’s Second Term ‘Charade’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BLITZER: “In September, Scott Jennings, Pelosi actually did say it was a blessing to avoid an open primary, listen to this.”

GOBA: “You’ve reportedly said that you wanted sort of an open primary if Joe Biden stepped down. Did you change your mind because you saw all of the excitement around Kamala Harris?”
Pelosi: “No, I didn’t change my mind, we had an open primary and she won it, nobody else got in the race. Yes, people could have jumped in, there were some people who were sort of preparing but she just took off with it and actually, it was a blessing because there wasn‘t that much time between then and the election and it sort of saved time. It wasn‘t that we didn‘t have an open process, it was just that nobody got in.”

BLITZER: “So Scott, what do you make of Pelosi’s about-face?”
JENNINGS: “Pretty wild stuff actually, Wolf. I think Democrats don‘t have anybody to blame but themselves and not just in the near term, thinking about this but the charade that was Joe Biden running for a second term at all, ever, the idea that we were all supposed to go along with this idea that he was up to the job or up to running for a second term until that debate in June remember, Pelosi, Harris, every single major Democrat in this country sat on this network and every other network and in front of TV cameras and said oh, he‘s vigorous, he‘s great, he‘s going to do well until it wasn‘t politically viable anymore, I have very little sympathy for all this, I‘m kind of watching it with my popcorn box like the rest of the Republicans. But they have no one to blame but themselves for constructing a charade around Joe Biden that he was up to this, he never was, the American people found out about it and that‘s part of why I think Harris lost.”
