Former White House counselor Kellyanne Conway blasted President Joe Biden’s handling of classified documents, saying he is a “grown man” worthy of blame.
“We know that there has been reckless and negligent mishandling of classified documents. That alone makes them culpable,” Conway told Fox News’s The Next Revolution with Steve Hilton. “Every time they try to excuse it away, Steve, by saying, ‘But it wasn’t that many documents. But the search is over. But this is Biden; he is so grandfatherly and gracious. He’s not Trump, Trump, Trump.’ They make it worse because they are actually admitting culpability.”

Conway’s comments follow several batches of classified documents having been found in Biden’s possession over the past few months in multiple locations, including his home in Delaware and the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement.
The former White House counselor mocked the Biden administration’s criticism of former President Donald Trump.
“This was supposed to be the adult administration,” Conway said. “This guy, the biggest swamp creature of all, swimming around and splashing around the swamp for 50-plus years, is supposed to know how to properly handle classified documents.”

Conway added that Biden’s mishandling of classified documents is another example of his administration’s inability to tell the truth, citing past concerns regarding crime, inflation, immigration, and the war in Ukraine.
“This White House wants us to believe what they say rather than what we see,” Conway said. “This is a grown man, a commander in chief, president of the U.S., who can’t admit when they’ve breached transparency and accountability.”

Conway added that the White House’s handling of these documents sets the stage for the 2024 election cycle.
“People know what they see,” she added. “And that’s how they are going to vote — not according to what the Democrats say.”
