<p>Viral clips showing President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> in situations in which he looks to be frail or confused are being dismissed as &#8220;cheap fakes&#8221; by the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/white-house" target="_blank" rel="noopener">White House</a>.</p>
<p>Press secretary <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/karine-jean-pierre" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Karine Jean-Pierre</a> sought to discredit the videos, which have proliferated amid concerns about 81-year-old Biden&#8217;s mental acuity and physical fitness as he runs for a second term, when a reporter pressed her to address them during the White House <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRkaQElaZ5c" target="_blank" rel="noopener">press briefing</a> on Monday.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think you all have called this the cheap fakes video, and that&#8217;s exactly what they are. They are cheap fakes video,&#8221; Jean-Pierre said from behind the podium.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">REPORTER: &quot;There seems to be a rash of videos that have been edited to make the President appear especially frail or mentally confused&#8230;&quot;</p>
<p>KJP: &quot;They are cheap fakes video. They are done in bad faith.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/uXJ2sgxMiE">pic.twitter.com/uXJ2sgxMiE</a></p>

<p>&#8220;They are done in bad faith,&#8221; she continued. &#8220;And some of your news organizations have, have been very clear, have stressed that these right-wing, the right-wing critics of the president have a credibility problem because of the fact-checkers have repeatedly caught them pushing misinformation, disinformation.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jean-Pierre went on, &#8220;And so we see this, and this is something coming from your part of the world, calling them cheap fakes and misinformation.&#8221;</p>
<p>One recent video showed Biden <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-mocked-for-wandering-away-from-world-leaders-during-photoshoot" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wandering away</a> from other G-7 leaders watching skydivers descend during a photo op in Italy. Another from over the weekend showed former President Barack Obama grabbing onto <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/obama-grabs-bidens-hand-leads-him-off-stage-at-hollywood-fundraiser" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Biden</a> at a fundraiser in Los Angeles and walking with him off the stage.</p>
<p>Such clips are often posted to X and the media coverage they get have prompted <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/06/14/cheapfake-biden-videos-enrapture-right-wing-media-deeply-mislead/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fact-checker criticism</a> and denials from the White House and Biden&#8217;s allies.</p>
<p>Jean-Pierre called the Italy clip along with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-raises-eyebrows-at-d-day-ceremony-gets-escorted-away-as-macron-greets-veterans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">another from Normandy</a> &#8220;cheap fakes&#8221; that &#8220;actually attack the president for thanking troops.&#8221; What happened at the fundraiser, she added, <a href="https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1802780295373918359" target="_blank" rel="noopener">was a display</a> of how Biden and Obama &#8220;are friends.&#8221;</p>
<p>An X account for the Republican National Committee, which often posts the unflattering clips of Biden that go viral, fired back at the White House press secretary.</p>
<p>&#8220;Karine Jean-Pierre is BIG MAD that we distribute unfiltered, unedited, publicly available clips of Biden in public. (We&#8217;ll do more),&#8221; the account <a href="https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1802775343582925191" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>. &#8220;Jean-Pierre has a conniption over raw footage of Biden wandering around in public,&#8221; it <a href="https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1802780877123936611" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> in another post. &#8220;This level of coping and seething hasn&#8217;t been seen in YEARS!&#8221;</p>
