Biden Angry Oh My God
We shouldn’t let this story completely disappear without noting how the mainstream media could not handle that Joe Biden…might occasionally get pissed off at people.
In public, President Biden likes to whisper to make a point. In private, he’s prone to yelling.
Behind closed doors, Biden has such a quick-trigger temper that some aides try to avoid meeting alone with him. Some take a colleague, almost as a shield against a solo blast.
Why it matters: The private eruptions paint a more complicated picture of Biden as a manager and president than his carefully cultivated image as a kindly uncle who loves Aviator sunglasses and ice cream.
Some Biden aides think the president would be better off occasionally displaying his temper in public as a way to assuage voter concerns that the 80-year-old president is disengaged and too old for the office.
Zoom in: Senior and lower-level aides alike can be in Biden’s line of fire. “No one is safe,” said one administration official.
Biden aides still talk about how angry he got at Jeff Zients, then the administration’s “COVID czar,” in late 2021 when there was a shortage of testing kits as the Omicron variant spread. (The rage was temporary. Zients is now Biden’s chief of staff.)
Wow, I know I am shocked. Outraged even. Plus this is just awesome.
He told of a time during the 2008 presidential campaign when a 23-year-old fundraising staffer got into the car with Biden.”Okay, senator, time to do some fundraising calls,” the aide said. Biden responded by looking at him and snapping: “Get the fuck out of the car.”
I’m sorry, that is just funny.
At least this gave the MSM something to gnash their teeth about for a day or two.
