CNN's Jennings: Biden to Leave Office in 'Disgrace'

CNN's conservative commentator Scott Jennings told members of a panel discussion on Sunday that President Joe Biden would leave office in "disgrace."

Speaking alongside CNN's Dana Bash and contributor Karen Finney during an appearance on "State of the Union," Jennings pushed back against panelists that it wasn't just the president's mental state that would commemorate his legacy but the wars the United States is involved in as well as the inflation hampering the economy.

"Joe Biden's record with regard to the things that he's accomplished, I think will stand the test of time," Finney said.

"Now, what my dear friend Scott and others will talk about and quite frankly, I'm going to say this on it's rightfully so: It was very disturbing to learn late in the year about just how bad, how poor his health has become. And like many, I did not realize that it had gotten to that point. That being said, I think ... he showed up for the job. He got the work done. I think some of the accomplishments also in the Middle East and foreign policy will also stand the test of time."

"You think the Middle East is in better shape today than when he took office?" Jennings interjected.

"Look," he added, "I think he's going to I think he's going to leave office in disgrace! The Hunter Biden pardon was disgraceful. He's going to be remembered largely for inflation and for the disastrous Afghanistan pullout. And I think as we continue to we're just getting the first draft of this now. But as we continue to learn about the massive cover-up that went on, not about his health, but about his mental acuity to cover that up, the efforts that were undertaken by the White House staff, by his family, not in the last couple of months, but for all four years. I think it's going to be a really ugly chapter. It's a diminished presidency because of it."

"I think we still don't know the full extent of what they did to try to hide what they've been doing over in the West Wing," Jennings noted.
