The Post is very Left Wing
Longtime Washington Post columnist Sally Quinn claims establishment was 'horrified' by Biden's campaign decision
A Washington socialite and journalist accused former first lady Jill Biden of "elder abuse" in an explosive new interview after former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer.
Sally Quinn, a D.C. insider and longtime columnist for The Washington Post, took aim at the former first lady during a wide-ranging interview with journalist Tara Palmeri on the "Tara Palmeri Show" on Wednesday. She accused Jill Biden of pushing him to run for re-election despite his apparent cognitive decline.
"I blame Jill Biden for this. Jill Biden is his wife. And if Jill Biden had stood up and gone to him and said, ‘Joe, you can’t do it’… He wouldn’t have run," Quinn told Palmeri. "She clearly was in favor of his running and I just think it was a terrible disservice to the country."
Quinn described feeling aghast by how Jill Biden continued to push ahead and rally support for her husband’s presidential campaign immediately after the "hideous" June 2024 presidential debate, which sparked debate over whether Biden was fit to serve another four years.
"She wasn't protecting him… I thought it was elder abuse, really," Quinn declared.
Quinn, who has dined with the Washington establishment for decades, said Biden’s apparent worsening health was an open secret among the Washington elite, who were worried about Biden’s ability to handle another four years in the Oval Office.
"Everybody thought he shouldn’t run," she told Palmeri. "People were just distraught that he was running and terrible for the party."
"I think everybody was horrified that he was put in a position where he was allowed to run, by his staff and by his wife," she continued. "People felt sorry for him. But still it was his egotistical decision to stay in office and look what happened."
The journalist was famously married to Watergate-era Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee, who suffered from dementia until his death in 2014.
She said Biden’s forgetfulness and habit of wandering off reminded her of how her late husband acted during his last years of life.
"It looks like the beginning of dementia to me," she said of Biden.
