White House Staffers Can’t Bear To Watch ‘Gaffe Machine’ Biden, so They Mute His Speeches: Report

Everyone knows the instinct: When you see a train wreck or other calamity about to happen, there is a natural reaction to turn away from the carnage about to transpire.

Welcome to the world of the White House every time President 👤Joe Biden opens his mouth in public, according to a new report from Politico.

Some in the White House reportedly cannot bear to hear a carefully crafted message blunted by the messenger, and either mute or turn off Biden’s remarks, unable to bear the suspense of what will go wrong this time.

Chief on the list of things that make White House aides tremble is that the president might say an unscripted word in response to a question, undoing all the work that went into his prepared remarks.

“I know people who habitually don’t watch it live for that reason,” a current official told Politico.

As noted by Fox News, Biden has made it clear he comes out to speak publicly after being told what to do and say.
