Biden's Handlers Step in When He Starts Yelling at House Democrats, and It Leads to an Awkward Moment.
Speaking to the Congressional Progressive Caucus in an attempt to assuage fears about his declining mental and physical health, Biden grew angry and started yelling. He offered no plan and instead sunk further into his delusions when pressed on how to turn his campaign around.
A lawmaker on the call says the president was "making fun of his staff" who passed him the note, and context was him acknowledging the note but then being the way he wanted to be on the call. "Not like he didn’t know what he was doing."
Without the audio, we simply can't know for sure whether Biden accidentally or purposely read the note aloud. So the "fact-checkers" salivating over this article can calm down.
Regardless, what does it say about the president that his handlers are having to step in and slip him notes? Who is actually in charge? That's the chief concern of many Americans, including a majority who say Biden is too old to perform the duties of the office.
The fact that the president continues to struggle with anger is also not reassuring. As a recent call-in to MSNBC's "Morning Joe" showed, Biden is easily triggered, which is a symptom of his possible dementia. This was a call with his fellow party members. Instead of yelling at them, he should have been sweet-talking them. That he couldn't control himself (again) says a lot.
I don't think Biden is going anywhere because he's simply too stubborn and surrounded by a family of grifters who don't want the gravy train to end. Still, these incidents aren't going to stop. There will continue to be a steady slew of stories about his condition leading up to the final debate. If he stumbles at all there, it's hard to imagine how he recovers. Heck, it's already hard to see his pathway forward, and it's only July.
