CNN’s Tapper to Schiff: Hur Report On Biden’s Mental Decline ‘Pretty Accurate’

CNN host Jake Tapper reminded Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., how he was “relentlessly harsh against Special Counsel Robert Hur” and his report on President Biden despite it being “pretty accurate” during a Sunday show segment.

During a segment on Thursday, Tapper referenced Schiff’s questioning of President-elect Donald Trump’s Attorney General nominee Pam Bondi, particularly in light of her claim that most Americans no longer trust the Justice Department, Fox News reported.

Schiff attributed the criticism of the DOJ to Republicans “trashing” the institution, but Tapper pointed out that he and other Democrats had also criticized the Justice Department in the past.

“President Biden gave a pretty harsh assessment of the investigation into his son Hunter,” Tapper began. “He basically threw the Justice Department under the bus there for those investigations. And Democrats, including you, were relentlessly harsh against Special Counsel Robert Hur for making an observation that proved pretty accurate, about how Joe Biden might appear to a jury as a ‘well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.’”

“I was critical of that for good reason,” Schiff argued. “And that is, you don’t put gratuitous personal observations like that in a prosecutorial memo. You just don’t. And it was done for a political reason,” Schiff claimed, ignoring the fact that Hur’s assessment wasn’t ‘personal’ it was an observation based on his interactions with Biden — and that it was spot-on.

“So it’s not that, you know, everyone, including special counsels, necessarily follow [Department of Justice] policy the way I believe they should. And when they don’t, I call it out. And as indeed I did, I disagreed with the president’s comments about the prosecution of his own son,” Schiff said.
