That is an incredibly offensive question to ask,\u201d Jean-Pierre said. \u201cLet me be very clear about this. For the past several years, the president\u2019s physician has laid out in a comprehensive way the president\u2019s health. This is a president who, if you watch him every day, if you really pay attention to his record and what he has done, you will see exactly how focused he\u2019s been on the American people, how historic his actions have been. And so I\u2019m not even going to truly, truly, really, you know, take the premise of your question. I think it is incredibly insulting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kjp-hangs-up-on-north-carolina-radio-host-after-offensive-question-about-whether-biden-has-dementia\/\" title=\"KJP abruptly ends call with North Carolina radio host over question regarding Biden's mental state\">press secretary requested<\/a> the next question, which she also firmly answered, regarding gas and <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/money\">grocery prices<\/a>. Garrison questioned how the president can expect to win votes when voters have less disposable income.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the president walked into this administration, there were multiple problems happening,\u201d Jean-Pierre said. \u2018But the president took action on gas prices. Let\u2019s not forget, the Russian invasion of Ukraine skyrocketed prices of gas, and because the president took action, we are in a different place than we were a year ago on gas prices. Eggs, milk, seafood products, all the important groceries \u2014 those prices have gone down because of what this president has been able to do. And with that, thank you so much, Mark, have an amazing day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Jean-Pierre then appeared to hang up the phone, leaving Garrison and another radio host stunned.<\/p>\n<p>The White House responded to the report of Jean-Pierre purportedly hanging up the phone, saying the radio station \u201cartificially attached a sound effect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs she often does when the President travels, Karine had multiple back-to-back interviews with radio stations who were each offered 7 minutes,\u201d a White House spokesman said. \u201cOnce the agreed-upon time was over, she called into the next interview so everyone could get their full time. This particular station chose not to air the full interview and instead artificially attached a sound effect that our phones do not make when calls end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><strong>CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The interview comes after critics of the 81-year-old president have expressed concern over his mental capability to serve another four years as the commander in chief.
