Biden reportedly growing frustrated that aides ‘rush to explain’ his statements, worried he looks weak

Biden is reportedly annoyed with his staff's walk-backs of his remarks

Joe Biden is reportedly frustrated with his staff in the White House and their efforts to “rush to explain” something the president has said.

“The so-called clean-up campaign, he has told advisers, undermines him and smothers the authenticity that fueled his rise. Worse, it feeds a Republican talking point that he’s not fully in command,” NBC News reported Tuesday.

The White House has walked back several of the president’s statements, including when Biden said that Russian President Vladimir Putin “cannot remain in power.”
