In a recent report by Alex Thompson from Axios, it was revealed that President Joe Biden has a tendency to lose his temper with his staff. However, the article tries to spin this as evidence that the president is more sharp and engaged than the public perceives.
This behavior from Biden is not new in Washington. It has been well-known for some time that in private, Biden can be quite a bully, which is in stark contrast to his friendly and personable public persona.
Thompson’s report indicates that Biden’s angry outbursts have escalated to the point where some aides try to avoid meeting with him alone. Instead, they bring a colleague as a shield against his potential rage.
Axios shares some examples of Biden’s profane outbursts, including statements like “God dammit, how the f–k don’t you know this?!” and “Don’t f–king bullsh-t me!” It’s worth considering how the media would react if a Republican displayed this kind of behavior.
Ironically, Mediaite’s Isaac Schor points out that on his first day in office, Biden promised to treat all staff members with decency and dignity. This contrast between his words and actions raises eyebrows.
According to Biden’s aides, these outbursts are a sign of his deep engagement in policy detail. They claim he becomes frustrated when staff members can’t answer his questions or communicate using wonky, acronym-filled language.
Those who question Biden’s cognitive abilities argue that these outbursts show his inability to handle the demands of the job. However, it’s also possible that he simply lashes out at those who tell him what he doesn’t want to hear.
This is evident in his insistence that no one warned him about the potential issues with his Afghan withdrawal, despite denials from Joint Chiefs of Staff chair Gen. Mark Milley and others.
In essence, Biden has a long history of being an “egomaniacal autocrat” according to a former aide. Now that he is president, no one seems willing or able to stand up to him. However, given his age and position, it is more important than ever for people to provide him with accurate information about how the world works.
