WILMINGTON, DELAWARE: On a recent episode of Fox News' 'The Five,' former judge and commentator Jeanine Pirro criticized the Democratic National Convention for scheduling President Joe Biden's speech so late into the evening.

Pirro, known for her staunch support of Donald Trump, expressed disdain over the timing of Biden’s address, suggesting it was deliberately done to 'keep him as far away from the public'.

When fellow host Jesse Watters inquired about her experience watching Biden’s speech, Pirro responded, "Well, I'll tell you, even my dogs fell asleep." She added, "Jesse, look, half of America didn't see Joe Biden's speech because it came on at 11:30."

Pirro further accused the Democrats of undermining Biden’s presence, stating, "I mean, they torched this guy, they threw him over a cliff and then they hid his final, you know, his final eulogy."

She characterized Biden's speech as a classic display of his tendency to lie, highlighting the contrast between the convention's joyful facade and the president’s alleged dishonesty.

Jeanine Pirro criticized the Democrats for not prioritizing Biden's speech over other convention segments, such as those on abortion, suggesting that this was a deliberate attempt to keep him out of the spotlight.

She asserted, "And in that eulogy, I mean, Joe Biden was classic, Joe Biden. He lied in this convention where all they talk about is joy and love and we're so joyful and it's so wonderful and they could have bumped some of the other speakers, they could have bumped the abortion speakers, but they didn't want to do this. So, what does it tell you? They wanted him as far away from the public as they could."



 

Pirro also drew a contrast between Republican and Democratic party loyalty.

She noted, "The Republicans stick with Donald Trump, through Russia collusion, through impeachments, indictments, convictions, and attempted assassination. And with Joe Biden and the Democrats, hey, as soon as it doesn't look like the guy is gonna win, to hell with democracy, forget the fact that Kamala hasn't gotten one vote. We're gonna have her run for president ... in the end, it was simply about the fact that they're getting rid of him as quickly as they can."
