Politico has a new report out this morning explaining how Biden’s very tight inner circle in the White House has gone out of their way to ensure not pissing off Joe Biden during his briefings, “because he is not a pleasant person to be around…”
One senior Biden official said “people are scared shitless of him.”
Here’s the report:
Over the course of his presidency, Joe Biden’s small clutch of advisers have built an increasingly protective circle around him, limiting his exposure to the media and outside advice — an effort to manage public perceptions of the oldest person to ever hold the office and tightly control his political operation.
But inside the White House, Biden’s growing limitations were becoming apparent long before his meltdown in last week’s debate, with the senior team’s management of the president growing more strictly controlled as his term has gone on. During meetings with aides who are putting together formal briefings they’ll deliver to Biden, some senior officials have at times gone to great lengths to curate the information being presented in an effort to avoid provoking a negative reaction.
“It’s like, ‘You can’t include that, that will set him off,’ or ‘Put that in, he likes that,’” said one senior administration official. “It’s a Rorschach test, not a briefing. Because he is not a pleasant person to be around when he’s being briefed. It’s very difficult, and people are scared shitless of him.”
The official said, “He doesn’t take advice from anyone other than those few top aides, and it becomes a perfect storm because he just gets more and more isolated from their efforts to control it.”
Wait, I thought Biden was the nice guy you’d want to have at the dinner table and Trump was the hateful bully. Now we find that Biden is the bully and nobody likes being around him, so much so that his closest aides have to walk over eggshells around him to keep from pissing him off. How can another false narrative have lasted for so long without getting reported???
I’ve long suspected that all of these people in power are divas behind the scenes, and the more power they have the more diva they become, just like Biden. So this isn’t really a shocker, to say the least.
As a side note I love it how these reporters act as if they are giving us new information, claiming that Biden’s “growing limitations were becoming apparent long before his meltdown” last week. Yeah, we know. We’ve been watching him for years and have seen his brain short-circuit many, many times – almost on a daily basis. My favorite is still the one late last year, when Biden said he’d been talking to dead people.
The truth is that these reporters have turned a blind eye and tried to hide Biden’s cognitive decline from the American public because they want access and don’t want to upset the Democrat establishment – like the very truthful WSJ piece did over a month ago. Now, suddenly, they are willing to report on it because it’s now en vogue. But by doing so, they reveal their journalistic malpractice for all to see.
