#shorts On 3/30/2023, during press briefing, a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “I wanted to also ask about some comments that Speaker McCarthy made on Capitol Hill. He was talking about the debt-limit talks, and he said he didn’t know how much more easier he could make it for the White House. And then he said would bring lunch to the White House and, quote, “would make it soft food,” if that’s what the President wanted. It’s being interpreted as a dig at the President’s age. So, I wanted to give you a chance to respond but also just to ask, like, what kind of effect comments like this have on these talks.

MS. Jean-Pierre: Look, you know, I think the President is able to pick out his own Starbucks.
