WATCH: KJP Botches Both Hawaii Senators’ Names In 15 Seconds

Published

During Monday’s press conference, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre made some glaring errors while referencing Hawaii’s senators.

In the span of 15 seconds, Jean-Pierre mistakenly pronounced Senator Mazie Hirono’s name as “Hirino” and misgendered her, referring to Hirono as “he”. But the errors did not stop there.

The Press Secretary went on to mispronounce Hawaii Senator Brian Schatz’s name, calling him Senator “Shartz.”

Later she was asked by a reporter, “Given what the administrator said about the perils of the president traveling to Hawaii now, does he want to travel there eventually to survey the damage and meet survivors?”

Jean-Pierre responded, “Look, I don’t have anything at this time.”

Given the weight of the situation in Hawaii, the administration is exhibiting quite a lack of care and attention to detail.
