After transitioning from the administration’s mouthpiece to a talking head on MSNBC, former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is telling it like it is about Democrats’ midterm chances. If the election is a referendum on her former boss, Democrats will lose. She also warned that “crime is a huge vulnerability for Democrats.”

Those comments caused a headache for current Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre on Monday when Fox News’s Peter Doocy pressed her to explain.

“Why would she say that,” he wondered.

Jean-Pierre countered by disagreeing with Doocy’s “characterization of what she actually said,” despite quoting her.

“It is not — it is not a — it is not a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ question; it is very much a question of what has he done,” Jean-PIerre responded, pointing to her earlier remarks about the American Rescue Plan.
