Honestly, that is for people much smarter than I to make that assessment, that decision, she told Doocy. Obviously, voters will decide. That is not something for me to decide.I cannot predict the future, so that is not something that Im going to do from here, she added.So, no leader of the party, Doocy responded.Thats not what I said, an exasperated Jean-Pierre replied. Im regretting this right now regretting all of this.You asked me about what 2028s gonna look like between now and 2028, she continued, explaining Doocys own question to him along with her answer. Thats not for me to decide. Thats not for me to speak to.Doocy shared a similar moment with Jean-Pierres predecessor, Jen Psaki, when she stepped down in May 2022, telling her that he was sorry to see her go.Are you? Psaki asked, eliciting laughter from other reporters. Doocy told Psaki that she had always been a good sport, and added that he couldnt wait to see Jean-Pierre, the first LGBTQ+ person and the first Black woman to be named White House press secretary, in the role.During an interview with the hosts of Pod Save America, Psaki had previously suggested that she didnt hold Doocys muckraking against him. He works for a network that provides people with questions that might make anyone sound like a stupid son of a b***h, she said.Subscribe to theLGBTQ Nation newsletterand be the first to know about the latest headlines shaping LGBTQ+ communities worldwide.
