She can be tough as well
Traditionally, after the president delivers a speech or press conference and does not address all the follow-up questions, the burden falls on the press secretary.
As we all know, Donald Trump was known for making shocking statements in his own style, and then the press secretary would have to react to the backlash.
However, it seems that Psaki was handling it remarkably well from her first week, responding to questions calmly and respectfully. But during that same week, she clearly avoided discussing Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Green.
She can find humor in adversity
Psaki also possesses a sarcastic sense of humor. In one of the press conferences, she was asked about President Joe Biden’s opinion on her predecessor, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, announcing her candidacy for the governorship of Arkansas.
With a smile on her face, as usual, she humorously stated that it was not high on President Biden’s list of concerns. She concluded her statement in a light-hearted manner, mentioning that she also had no plans to run for the governorship of Connecticut in the near future.

I always enjoyed briefings from Jen Psaki, and I still watch her when whe is on MSNBC.
Jen Psaki is great. I always watch her show; I hope MSNBC will give her more airtime.
She was an excellent press secretary; calm, non combative, assertive without being rude, and knowledgeable. She is missed!
I DO NOT LIKE OR RESPECT JEN PSAKI. SHE CAN LOOK RIGHT AT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND LIE RIGHT TO THEIR FACES. SHE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED. SHE FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE REST OF THE CORRUPT DEMOCRATS. EVIL…OUT FOR HERSELF ONLY. SHE NEEDS TO GO.
Spoken like the hater so many Republicans have become. You have chosen to be so uninformed, that you don’t want facts to get in way
What did Jen Psaki lie about? Sarah Sanders sure did. That women lied and then had to admit she lied when she was interviewed for the Mueller Report. White House correspondent April Ryan said and I quote “she should be fired, end of story”, meaning Sanders. Sanders is an embarrassment to the office she currently holds and was also an embarrassment to the position she held in the past. Jen Psaki was 100% better than the garbage we had to listen to during the Trump administration.
I think you have her confused with Sarah Huckabee and Sean Spicer
Yes , she does have them mixed up!
My goodness Linda that’s exactly what I thought when I read that comment.
She worships the Baphomet
Typical Maga Trumper
You’re threatened by her intelligence and strengths I see.
I can tell because you used all caps and bad grammar. Just like a 300 pound former president.
I believe Jen Psaki would be a great President!!!
I’m arepublican, turned Democrat after the last president. I liked Jen, from the first press meeting. She was direct, never seemed paniced, very knowledgable and when she wasn’t sure or didn’t know something she sid so. Admitting you don’t know something is a strength not a weakness, e.g Biden -he makes a great point and then “drones” on with facts, (employment statistics, etc.) that noone hears or cares about. I love Biden and will vote for him again but those that advise him in his presentations should be fired. Make your point, in a few words people remenmber and shut up. Don’t drone go on and have republicans say you sound old and feeble. Churchill, Reagan -make a point and leave.
no republican in their right mind would ever vote for Joe Biden. He was never very bright, but now he is a mess. He will also prove to be corrupt. For you to even consider voting for him again especially with the state of foreign affairs and the economy, I give up on your judgment.
great president of the liars club.
This woman is hand selected by the globalist cabal. She can lie at the drop of a hat. Paid hired gun that must be stopped. EVIL– no truth !!
I never cared much for Jen Psaki as Biden’s press secretary. After she stepped down and we got KJP to replace her I gained a great deal of respect for Psaki. She always seemed prepared to answer questions posed by reporters. Her responses may not have been wholly truthful but at least they weren’t inane like those of her successor. I feel I could discuss topics for which we have differing opinions with candor. Jen, please come back and replace KJP. I may not agree with you but at least you don’t make me sick to my stomach as KJP Does.
I really liked Jen Psaki. I wish she were still the press secretary. But let’s face it this is a very difficult job that burns most people out. What more can be said…
Jen Psaki is the greatest. Very, very smart with good judgement.
How did Psaki maintain her balance with so much “circling back”…? Lying Communist Democrat.
Why is it these Republicans can only use such disgusting adjectives for their response?? You can disagree without calling someone a liar. To what are you referring when you do so??
I like Jen Psaki a lot and am grateful for this piece of information.
The true liar in this country that I love is Donald Trump and the Republican Congress and Trump followers. It seems that if you don’t like someone you threaten to kill them or call them a liar. Really???
After I watching the news yesterday and witness an idiot President that I voted for nibble a little girl in Finland that squirms away from him was the last straw. I can see the reason that Jen resigned she continued to lie because what he told her what to say. This 95 year old first vote was for a great president Harry S Truman that was a business man and Democrat from Independence MO, owned a men’s clothing store. Now we have a president to never worked a day in his life and thinks his dictatorship is the best for we the people. I’m changing my party as of today. It took me after 95 year of age to see what the Democratic Party has come to, yes dictatorship. I’m so glade that I watch different news channels one that is truthful and it not what I use to watch NSBC. It open my eyes. My food Bill since Biden is horrible there is times I can only eat a banana for dinner to make it for my next unemployment check. I’m happy I don’t have a car anymore I would not be able to drive it gas in Calif over 450 cents a gallon but enough is enough from 95 year old that finely came to his senses. Your young people if you were fishhooked like me be ware.
Jen resigns because she was tired of what she had to say from the Biden administration.lies lies lies
Jen Psaki lied from the first day she took the podium and never looked back. Now spewing her propaganda on the leftist network. She is smart, I’ll give her that
Jen Psaki never answered relevant questions, her replay was mostly “circle back” to that and never did answer questions.
She is rude and snarky and totally full of bovine fertilizer.
Strange that you do not mention Kayleigh McEnany who was an excellent Press Secretary for the previous president.
For anyone who reads a respectable newspaper (i.e., The New York Times) or has a decent high school education and who doesn’t watch only Fox News, Jen Psaki is intelligent, forthright, sensible, and impresses everyone with her veracity and knowledge.
We probably wouldn’t have millions of people following a cult leader like the former guy who lacks all the positives that Jen Psaki has. I want us to continue to have a democracy which we nearly lost with the narcissist who lies, steals, and lacks any semblance of morality.
She is so knowledgeable and easy to follow and understand.
