HuffPost
Reporter Jacqui Heinrich took issue with Biden's strong language, and the press secretary firmly responded.
White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich went back and forth Tuesday over a possible verbal misstep by President Joe Biden regarding Obamacare. (Watch the video below.)
Jean-Pierre ended the debate with an impassioned endorsement of the health care program, officially known as the Affordable Care Act.
Heinrich, whose conservative network zeroed in on Biden’s language, had objected to the president’s use of the word “killing” in a speech Tuesday. She asked Jean-Pierre if Biden meant to “essentially accuse Republicans of murder.”
Biden had said his Republican opponent Donald Trump wanted to “terminate” the ACA. “Killing millions of Americans — taking them off of health care insurance and stripping others of services like home care,” Biden said.
A week earlier, though, Biden used the word “kicking” in a similar statement, saying Trump was interested in “kicking millions off Americans off their health insurance.” Mediaite speculated that Biden may have gone off-script Tuesday and it came out wrong.
