Newsmax criticized President Joe Biden for picking a dandelion for First Lady Dr. Jill Biden on Thursday.
The network ran the chyron: “Biden bizarrely gives Jill a dandelion,” while showing footage of the first couple walking across the south lawn of the White House, to board Marine One to Georgia.
“All right folks, take a look at this. Joe Biden, getting on Marine One, and he stops and picks up—I think it’s a dandelion? But it’s a dandelion that hasn’t even blossomed into a flower yet, like it gives everybody asthma. So you blow it, it goes everywhere, and then everybody starts sneezing,” host Grant Stinchfield said. “He picks up the weed and gives it to Jill in what I guess is supposed to be some kind of a sweet gesture. I say it was a planted dandelion there. Who knows?”
