Megyn Kelly DROPS Smug Karine Jean-Pierre Who's Trying to do Damage Control For Her Anti-Semitism Snafu

As Twitchy readers know, when Karine Jean-Pierre was asked if the Biden administration was concerned about the rise in anti-Semitism in America she blew off the question to babble and ramble on about Islamophobia.
We can't even make this crap up.
Welp, seems she finally figured out her answer was WRONG because she's very busy trying to do some damage control around that answer.
BWHA HA HA HA HA HA!!! Karine finally figured out that she didn't understand the question ...
Karine Jean-Pierre (@PressSec) ~ To be clear: the President and our team are very concerned about a rise in antisemitism, especially after the horrific Hamas terrorist attack in Israel.
Yashar Ali (@yashar) ~ This is odd ...
Karine Jean-Pierre was asked about anti-Semitism and said there were no credible threats and pivoted to talking about anti-Muslim/anti-Arab hate. It’s not an issue that she talked about Muslims and Arabs, rather that she seemingly dismissed anti-Semitism threats. In the clip on the right from July, she talked about the White House plan to combat anti-Semitism.

Ah, Karine ... the only thing that is crystal CLEAR is that you are a stone-cold idiot. BUT, thank goodness for you that you have your status as a bona fide African-American carpet muncher to fall back on, eh, dearie?
To be clear, that's not what Karine said.
Like, at all.
Enter Megyn Kelly.
Megyn Kelly (@megynkelly) ~ Weird how you didn’t say that when asked directly.
Weird, right?
Heh.
Well, poor lil' Karine suffers from persistent cranial flatulence.
Aleksandr Miguel (@AnothahWon) ~ Publicly - that is the difference.
The difference is she got called out and this didn't play well, like at all.
Lee Kuan Yew Wisdom! (@LKYMM23) ~ She saw what the reactions on X looked like!
Ding ding freaking ding.
Quidnam (@Quidnam) ~ It wasn't in her magic binder -- that's not the kind of thing one can simply come up with off-the-cuff!
Right? It's super hard to say, 'Yeah, we're concerned about what is happening to Jews here in America and around the world.'
Well, maybe it's hard for Karine.
Jean-Luc Canard (@JLCanard) ~ "To be clear: the President and our team are very concerned about how badly I whiffed on an easy question in the press briefing."
And THERE it is.
