Stephen A. Smith Accuses Jill Biden of Lying on 2024 Debate as Memoir Revives Stroke Fear

Summary
Stephen A. Smith said Jill Biden and other Democrats were "lying through their teeth" after her memoir revealed she feared Joe Biden was having a stroke during the 2024 debate.
On his Wednesday podcast, Smith contrasted that private alarm with Jill Biden's public praise that night, when she told her husband he had done a "great job" and answered every question.
Smith argued the admission lands badly ahead of November's midterms, gubernatorial and mayoral races, saying it reinforces Republican attacks and weakens Democrats even in blue states like California.
Jill Biden's book says both she and Joe Biden knew he had botched the debate, reopening scrutiny of how Democrats publicly handled concerns about his age and health in 2024.
