Karine Jean-Pierre, White House Press Secretary is enjoying a memorable Tuesday. Earlier this evening Jean-Pierre shared a tweet that appeared to be meant for President Biden’s account. She wrote, “Investing in America means investing in ALL of America. When I ran for President, I made a promise that I would leave no part of the country behind.”
The internet moved much faster than she did, even though the message was deleted quickly. Jean-Pierre was soon alerted to the mistake by a series of messages.
Twitter user @ALX wrote simply, “Wrong account bro.”
Simon Ateba of Today News Africa’s Chief White House correspondent, gave his opinion. He wrote, “Oh wow! The wrong Twitter account was used! @PressSec Karine Jean-Pierre has not run for President, at least to the best of my knowledge.”
The Washington Examiner also chimed in and called Jean-Pierre’s mishap “a bizarre statement.”
Some pointed out the error as proof that Biden did not create his tweets and social media posts. Former president Donald Trump has pushed this allegation. The 2020 presidential election is fast approaching.
Columnist Joe Concha offered, “Welp. I guess we know who’s been writing President Biden’s tweets for him. (A) Karine Jean-Pierre (not good) (B) White House intern (also not good) (C) The person who left cocaine at the White House (*really* not good).”
Ashley St. Clair jokingly joked about the intern in the White House as the culprit. As she put it, “is karine jean-pierre writing joe biden’s tweets or are they using the same intern.”
Jean-Pierre still hasn’t commented on the problem.
