'Speech aimed at far-left': Kayleigh McEnany criticizes Joe Biden's SOTU speech on 'Fox & Friends'
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany joined co-host Ainsley Earhardt to share her take on Joe Biden's State of the Union speech on the March 8 episode of 'Fox & Friends.'
The 'Outnumbered' co-host claimed that the incumbent was playing "progressive's greatest hits" on the House floor as he was worried about his poll numbers, ahead of the presidential election in November. She also called him out for his criticism of Supreme Court justices, stating that they were "almost a threat."
Pandering to the far-left
"We learned what keeps President Biden up at night," McEnany told Earhardt. "It's his predecessor and likely, his predecessor's poll numbers, given that Donald Trump is beating him in almost every poll, save a very few."
She continued to paint a better picture, saying, "I watched the speech and realized (Biden) must see a mutiny, a bloodbath in his poll numbers among progressives. This was a speech not aimed at the suburban mom, not aimed at independent voter, (but) aimed at far-left AOC types."
"That's why he gave a Gaza deliverable, it's why he did not take immigration executive action, it's why he was angry, defiant, mentioned Donald Trump (as) perils of Democracy - these are progressive's greatest hits. This was geared towards a far-left flank, and really at the detriment of gaining anyone new to his voting base," she added.
Slamming the Judiciary
Earhardt mentioned Biden calling out Supreme Court justices in his speech on March 7. The president spoke of the Alabama Supreme Court shutting down access to IVF, and the overturning of Roe v Wade, labeling them as an "assault on freedom."
"The irony of someone who talked about democracy being at risk, the very next breath, then attacking an American institution, one of the three branches of government," observed McEnany.
"Obama got criticized in 2010 when he attacked the Supreme Court but it was a minor mention. Last night it was almost a threat to the Supreme Court. If you care about democracy, Mr President, maybe try not attacking one-third of the federal government of the United States," she concluded.
