A Washington socialite and journalist accused former first lady Jill Biden of “elder abuse” in an explosive new interview after former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer.

Sally Quinn, a D.C. insider and longtime columnist for The Washington Post, took aim at the former first lady during a wide-ranging interview with journalist Tara Palmeri on the “Tara Palmeri Show” on Wednesday. She accused Jill Biden of pushing him to run for re-election despite his apparent cognitive decline.

“I blame Jill Biden for this. Jill Biden is his wife. And if Jill Biden had stood up and gone to him and said, ‘Joe, you can’t do it’… He wouldn’t have run,” Quinn told Palmeri. “She clearly was in favor of his running and I just think it was a terrible disservice to the country.”
