White House press secretary Jen Psaki dodged a question about the nationwide crime surge during a press briefing Monday.
Senior Daily Caller White House correspondent Shelby Talcott pointed to President Joe Biden’s low approval numbers on crime and asked Psaki if this was an indication to the administration that “Democrats are out of touch when it comes to criminal justice and safety.”
Psaki answered by immediately bringing up former President Trump, claiming there was “a record jump in murders under the former president” and the FBI has not released new crime data.
“Our view is that instead of turning this into a political football, we need to be focused … on reducing crime and keeping our communities safe. And that’s why he’s been a long-time advocate for more accountable community policing,” Psaki said.
She then listed several actions Biden has taken against “rogue gun dealers” and ghost guns. “His objective is to work with Democrats, Republicans, mayors, and local leaders to work to address what we’ve seen as increases in crime in some areas,” the press secretary said.

Psaki recently expressed confusion about the attention the crime wave is garnering during an interview on the “Pod Save America” podcast.
As of Jan. 31, Biden is facing a 41% overall approval rating, according to Rasmussen Reports.
