‘Where Was President Biden?’: Sen. Hagerty Weighs In On Spending Bill Chaos

 Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) called out President Joe Biden over the weekend over his absence from last week’s drama on Capitol Hill as Congress tried to pass a stopgap spending bill to keep the government open.

Hagerty made the remarks during a Sunday interview on CNN’s “State of the Union” with Dana Bash when asked about what all happened during the chaotic week.

“The interesting thing about this entire process, though, is, President Trump has been extremely involved in it,” Hagerty said. “But where was President Biden? The sitting president was not engaged with us at all in this process. And as it unfolded, the American public must have wondered, where is our president?”

Hagerty noted that Biden’s absence came after The Wall Street Journal published an explosive report last week that outlined how the White House and media helped cover up Biden’s severe cognitive decline.

“I guess we understand now why he hasn’t been around,” he said. “But this is just amazing that the White House and the president weren’t even engaged with us in this entire process.”
