Sarah Huckabee Sanders digs at Joe and Jill Biden amid mental acuity concerns

MILWAUKEE — Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R-AR) compared taking her son to the White House for "Bring Your Kid to Work Day" to first lady Jill Biden encouraging President Joe Biden to remain commander in chief despite his debate performance during her address to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.

“When I was President Trump’s White House press secretary, the best job, I got the chance to take my 4-year-old son Huck to Bring Your Kid to Work Day, much like Jill now drags Joe to Bring Your Husband to Work Day,’” Sanders told the crowd Tuesday.

Reflecting on last weekend's assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump , Sanders said her one-time boss "holds the future in his hands."

"Not even an assassin's bullet could stop him," she added. "God Almighty intervened because we are one nation under God, and he certainly wasn't finished with Donald Trump."

In a speech that echoed her appearances earlier Tuesday at a National Federation of Republican Women luncheon and Moms for Liberty town hall, Sanders quipped that Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris cannot explain what it means to be a woman.

"The Left loves to talk about the war on women, but the only war that I see being waged is from the far Left against the conservative, strong women in this country," Sanders told the luncheon. "And when they learn that you are a Trump-supporting Republican woman, they'll attack you even more relentlessly."

"Believe me, because I've been on the receiving end of those attacks as governor and as President Trump's press secretary," she said. "But like all of you, I know how to tough it out. No nasty comment is going to stop us from protecting women's sports or banning offensive, nonsense words like 'birthing person' and 'pregnant people.'"

After the debate, the Biden campaign confirmed to the Washington Examiner that the first lady and the president's family implored him to remain in the race, regardless of Democrats' concerns regarding his age and mental acuity. During the debate, the incumbent repeatedly lost his train of thought and did not effectively prosecute the political case against Trump.
