Following former President Joe Biden’s diagnosis of advanced prostate cancer, a journalist and socialite from Washington accused former first lady Jill Biden of “elder abuse” in a shocking new interview.

In a lengthy interview with journalist Tara Palmeri on the “Tara Palmeri Show” on Wednesday, Sally Quinn, a D.C. insider and veteran columnist for The Washington Post, attacked the former first lady. She claimed that despite his apparent cognitive decline, Jill Biden pressured him to run for reelection.

“Jill Biden is to blame for this. His wife is Jill Biden. Additionally, if Jill Biden had told him, “Joe, you can’t do it,” Quinn informed Palmeri, “He wouldn’t have run.” “I just think it was a terrible disservice to the country, and she was obviously in favor of his running.”

After the “hideous” June 2024 presidential debate, which sparked debate over whether Biden was fit to serve another four years, Quinn said she was appalled by Jill Biden’s continued push forward and mobilization of support for her husband’s campaign.

“She wasn’t keeping him safe. Really, I believed it to be elder abuse,” Quinn said.

Quinn, who has been dining with the Washington establishment for decades, claimed that the elite in Washington were concerned about Biden’s capacity to manage another four years in the White House and that they were aware of his apparent deteriorating health.

“Everyone believed that he shouldn’t run,” she informed Palmeri. “He was running, and it was awful for the party, so people were just upset.”

“I think everyone was appalled that his wife and staff put him in a position where he was permitted to run,” she added. People sympathized with him. However, his self-centered choice to remain in office is still evident in what transpired.
