[ laughter ] >> greg: i getnfor the sense that this was an intentional project from the democrats, not from the republicans. dan >> dana: it would not surprise me. a remember the abc pole, 86% ofl h americans, including democrats, believe that biden was too old to run. it was also because these things were happening and then peoplee were talking to the media. and yes, one of the reporters was a democratic house press a b carrier -- secretary i believe and then became a reporter. for people to say this is a hit job on the wall street journal, i think it is just belying the facts. kevin mccarthy is quotedn th throughout on the record. but you also had this, the wall street journal did their work but then the white house went into overdrive. and then they tried to overcorrect and they asked toemc the democrats who were quoted in the article to call the reporters back and to say, int t just want to make sure you knowl that biden is really with it.ry in the story it says, the whitec house told me to call you back.a so then they are overplaying their hand.an and so everything is just too much. do you remember when the newtime york times i believe did a story about kamala harris. they had 70 sources saying she was a tough person to work for, this is before the manye ma makeovers took over. it wasma a new york times. was that a hit job? the other thing i wanted to point out is that i'm concerned. i feel like there is no vision for the country coming from the candidates at the moment. trump tries i believe, but thent he gets pulled into talking e about his trials and everythingn that the democrats have thrown e out them. the debate is three weeks from tomorrow. maybe wero will see them set out this vision but i feel like the country is like where are we going? what are we doing? on immigration, the executive's order, he's not, he is, he's not. and the ukraine.les, they can use the missiles, theyo can, they can't, they won't.isra then on israel biden is like he is, he's not, he is. he's an ally but he's not. and i'm thinking is it incoherence as a policy or is the president not being clear in his thinking to tell the people who work for him this is what he wants? that's kind ofth the conclusioni came to after all of that.d. >> greg: i think this was -- that was the point that was being made by the people that want him out. jesse, i have a theory i like to share with you.h >> jesse: pleaseyo. >> greg: this article has a e bigger mission to tell everyone it's okay to vote for trump. remember, in 2016 and 2020 you did not go out of your way toer say that you were voting fore to trump because there would be too much risk. the article is basically giving you the blessing to say yes i'm going to vote for trump. i'm not crazy about him but look at this guy. dow it comes down to what is riskier. this article said biden is far more risky as president.t i that's what i got. i think that's the mission.: >> jesseit: it's a great cover story, a great excuse for people who are looking for an excuse tj tell their friends and familynd and coworkers about why they arr not voting for joe biden. and i want to be fair to the president, it is a hard job for it'sanybody.he's he's got two wars going on, you've got intelligencell officials telling him things that we don't even know about that he's probably stressed about, his sonobab is on gun chs in trial. i don't know, he's got to dealwk with peter do see every time he walks around. >> greg: he got to you jesse. >> jesse: i'm a little morettle compassionate than i used to be. but let me pivot now. [ laughter ] >> greg: it was a set up.se >> jesse: het ran for this office and he has the greatest support staff anywhere in the world. he has hundreds of people in the white house, he has people polishing his shoes, he has taylor's, he has people briefing him, he's got people making sure he does not trip and fall, he's got a guy cutting his hair, heai has chefs, pilots.s they are presenting the best version of joe biden that we arg ever going to see. out when he goes out in public, the are giving us the best version of joe ever, and that is joseph lobbing, is stumbling, telling stories about his uncle who was eaten by cannibals. itit is not get any better than that. what we are seeing right now in public is the most alert ander alive and polished joe biden ever. and so the public is now -- has now gotten three times to see what it's like behind do you had that book out. saying he was old and doddering. a report saying he was too old and doddering to even stand trial and now this, 45 republicans and democrats went on the record here. this wasn't like mccarthy just spilled the beans to theng w journal, this is 45 peopleis saying what it's likehe behind-the-scenes. he loses track of negotiations in the middle of the negotiation , he needs note cardsin to sit in the room and say obvious things to the other people in the room. for he forgets names. at one point he said the meeting was delayed almost ten minutes because the president was moving so slowly to get into the chairr and he keeps his eyes closed for so long people think he's dozing off. so when you have a president who is creating crises he's creating a crisis on the border, creating an inflation crisis, theys, connect to the crisis with his y age and they say his age and mental faculties are causing these bad policies.we now we resent the white house for covering it up. w and that is where we get now, b when joe biden loses eventually someone is going to spill the beans and say how this was onesn of the greatest white house coverups of all time. >> greg: you know, judge, iicle believe this article was planne. for this specific time. it's already june, we already knew that jimmy carter was done in mayca, around memorial day. and the other secret message?ge forty-five sources, . who is also 45? trump. see what i'm talking about.tell >> judge jeanine: i tell you, greg. the truth is we did not need thw wall street journal or new yorkh times to tell us what we already knew, what we had been talkingid about, what we had been criticized for talking about, but now the liberal outlets are saying it and so i go to theth very question you are asking,le why? is it to give other people permission, to let them say it's okay? but i've got to tell you, i come down -- i mean the obvious stuff, the rambling, the m mumbling, and they are not releasing the audio of the report, they will release the transcript but not the audio because it's an ai fake or because it may hamper thete integrity of investigations. that's agr bunch of nonsensee th because the closing of his eyes, the pausing, the fact he did not know when his son died, he did not know when he was vice president, when he started, whee he stopped. and i had to say to myself, you know, is joe biden so obsessedoe with being -- is jill biden so obsessed with being first lady e that she's convinced yourself joe biden is the only person whn could be commander-in-chief, or is it really an obsession with power and luxury and all the things that she's not willing to live without? irrespective of the health and-i well-being of her husband. i mean this man, it's not about his age, it's about his cognitive decline. how can a party let him go out there, how can these politicians lie to us? are we know they are lying to us when they are saying these things. did he not just go to normandy and skip the events and just gon to the hotel? this is them trying to conners. americans don't like that. >> greg: i'm afraid we are out of time, harold, but i promise you next time we will get around to your response, just submitted in writing. [ laughter ]it i >> greg: i think it is stating the obvious. and harold, it's kind of like, i mean, the conclusion, they aresa basically saying he's not competent or reliable to remaino in office. i go back to my first questionow to dana, he's a danger to the country, he poses -- i walked p osaway with -- you would never have this guy in office given what they are saying. >> the great thing about our system, good to be back with everybody, is that you can vote for someone else. ifeopl people don't want to voti joe biden, and i don't think it's a rea l headline that he'sed a old and slow to bit, and i think it makes it even more important. my take on it is a bit 78- different. i think it makes it even more important who the 78-year-old chooses for his vp also because some of the data suggest that maybe vice president harris isra not as popular amongst americans or even amongst democrats.putt i think it will put pressure on trump to choose a viable and serious and well thought out vp choice. finally,well tho this headline r forgotten on june 28th, theif day afte hr the debate. if he stands there and performs well, that will be the real test, just like the state of the union was a test and heif performed well. if he does well in the debate,be this will be forgotten.rs >> ita just don't understand why he's so vigourous and alert in private and why don't we ever see that in public?do why do they always have to tellj us behind the scenes that he's just so amazing when these 45 people are saying actually not, so much. >> greg: you would notally belie how well behaved am in private.
