WATCH The AG Of Alabama Make A Fool Of Himself When Asked If Biden Was ‘Duly Elected’

Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall appeared at the request of Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee to testify at the confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on Thursday, and he quickly made a complete fool of himself when asked a simple question by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI).

The question Whitehouse asked was:

“Is Joseph R. Biden of Delaware the duly elected and lawfully serving president of the United States of America?”

Questions don’t get much easier than that. The only question that would have been equally as much of a slam dunk for Marshall to answer might be “Does two plus two equal four?”

And yet, Marshall couldn’t answer the query from Whitehouse, remarking:

“He is the president of this country.”

The senator asked again:

“Is he the duly elected and lawfully serving president of the United States?”

At that point, Whitehouse paused for a second and asked Marshall if he was deliberately omitting “duly elected and lawfully serving” from his response.

Marshall:

“I’m answering the question. He is the president of the United States.”

Once more, Whitehouse ran the question by Marshall:

“You have no view as to whether he was duly elected or is lawfully serving?”

The AG replied:

 “I’m telling you he’s the president.”

Cleary disgusted, Whitehouse said:

“No further questions.”

It probably won’t surprise you to learn that Marshall is up for reelection in November and is clearly trying to curry favor with Republican voters who still support failed, one-term former President Donald Trump and his “Big Lie” that the 2020 election was stolen from him. It wasn’t, but the GOP has to pretend it was so Trump doesn’t say mean things about them.

If you want to see the perfect example of a gutless eunuch, just watch the performance AG Marshall gave today.
