White House spokesperson Jen Psaki attempted to defend Joe Biden’s lack of support for Texas during the recent winter storm. “He was closely watching the news, talking to his team, and he is eager to go down to Texas and show his support,” Psaki stated. “But he’s also very mindful of the fact he doesn’t want to take away resources or attention.” In previous disasters, President Trump would immediately head to areas in need to lead the rescue and recovery efforts by his personal example, but Psaki appeared to admit Biden’s presence on the ground would not be helpful.
