Criticism of Jean-Pierre began to escalate even before her book announcement. Sources within the Biden administration portrayed her as "one of the most ineffectual and unprepared" press secretaries they had ever seen. Allegations surfaced regarding her management of press briefing sessions, with claims that she struggled under questions that didn’t align with her prepared responses and contributed to an environment fraught with tension.
Further critiques came from former aides, suggesting that instead of concentrating on critical issues, much of the administration's time was devoted to appeasing her, underscoring broader issues within the White House’s communications strategy.
