really looks nothing like him is short tempered and obsessive

The New York Times apparently told the truth, and I will speculate on its ulterior motive later.
But first, allow me to examine, "Beneath Joe Biden’s Folksy Demeanor, a Short Fuse and an Obsession With Details," a triple-bylined piece that makes the man, who was known for his stupidity as a senator, out as some sort of Greek philosopher who spends months exploring options before making a decision. The piece said, "Quick decision-making is not Mr. Biden’s style. His reputation as a plain-speaking politician hides a more complicated truth. Before making up his mind, the president demands hours of detail-laden debate from scores of policy experts, taking everyone around him on what some in the West Wing refer to as his Socratic 'journey' before arriving at a conclusion."
Socratic journey is Times-speak for cannot make up his mind, which leads to why he is short of fuse.
The piece then said, "Those trips are often difficult for his advisers, who are peppered with sometimes obscure questions. Avoiding Mr. Biden’s ire during one of his decision-making seminars means not only going beyond the vague talking points that he will reject, but also steering clear of responses laced with acronyms or too much policy minutiae, which will prompt an outburst of frustration, often laced with profanity.
"Let’s talk plain English here, he will often snap."
Hmm.
Biden is acting like the Times accused Donald Trump of acting. Interesting.
In its summation of the piece, Breitbart said, "The report notes Biden holds lengthy deliberation meetings and demands obsessive details from his advisors. When advisors get too technical or obscure about an issue, Biden responds with “an outburst of frustration, often laced with profanity."
Hmm.
And Breitbart said, "The report also reveals Biden will hang up the phone on people who he feels are wasting his time.
"The president leans heavily on his inner circle for governing — chief of staff Ron Klain, deputy chief of staff Bruce Reed, senior adviser Mike Donilon, and Counselor to the President Steve Ricchetti.
"Biden stalls and deliberates intently on issues such as his tone toward Vladimir Putin, the report noted, appointing ambassadors, and his recent flip-flop on refugee caps."
If true — and the Times loves to spread malicious gossip — we can see just what the dangers of his presidency are. It is not that he will make some wild hare-brained decision. If he does, his aides will stop it. No, the danger is his aides will make some wild hare-brained decision, and he will be too addled of brain to stop them.
Biden is overwhelmed.
He should not be president.
In February 1988, Biden suffered two brain aneurysms. 33 years later, even with medication, we may be witnessing the damage done.
A wise reader wrote me, "A note on Joe. A person close to me had two brain aneurysm surgeries. They are in reality not the same mental person as they were before. Understanding the complex is no longer possible leading to frustration and early abandonment of the task at hand. The brain is the most complex thing known to exist in the entire universe. How it produces consciousness and its thought products is not really understood. But lest I state the obvious Joe is not really a fully functioning unit."
Everyone in the inner circle knows this. He is being used.
The wise man said, "His permanently altered analytic state is what made him truly attractive to the money men and clinched the deal: Not understanding leads to reliance on others who then do what they please."
They exploited Obama's laziness and ennui. Obama did not care what happened so long as he got to sit on the throne and put his feet up on the desk.
Now they exploit Biden's mental incapacitation.
He is short of temper because he is frustrated because his mind cannot wrap itself around the subject at hand.
This is why he abruptly hangs up the phone.
This is why he cannot make a decision.
They are dealing with someone who is not quite there.
The story said, "Over time, the president’s staff has learned the routine. They have padded his schedule with 15-minute breaks because they know he will not finish on time. He is allowed 30 minutes for lunch — a rotation of salad, soup and sandwiches — and because of the pandemic, rarely eats with people other than Vice President Kamala Harris, with whom he has a weekly lunch."
I wonder if they cut the crusts from his bread.
He is a president run by his staff. That has become common in Washington. These geezers in the Senate and the House do what their staffs tell them to do. I remember interviewing Byrd at an editorial board meeting in 2006. His arms flapped uncontrollably like wings while he read from a notebook prepared by his aides who sat at his left and at his right.
Our president is just such a puppet.
Now why would the Times bring this up? Are Democrats beginning to ease Biden out of the White House via the 25th Amendment? Has the matter become so obvious that even White House reporters see it?
Likely the situation is far worse than the Times let on.
He acts like an asshole not because he is an asshole but because he is frustrated to have power greater than his pea brain can handle.
Senior agitation. That’s where Biden is at. Happens to us old guys. For him though, we all suffer because of this dementia addled idiot.
Acts like???
But no mean tweets.
He acts like an asshole not because he is an asshole but because he is frustrated to have power greater than his pea brain can handle.
That would be a hard flip, Pelosi is the one who falsely certified the ineligible Obama.
Plus the GOP backed her up on that.
“He acts just like people who have a dread fear of responsibility.”
Maybe forty years ago, I read that Senators are the worst-qualified people to be POTUS because they hide behind 99 other colleagues and do nothing. They typically have no leadership or executive skills. Biden is the perfect personification of that.
Trump was a CEO and he acted just like one when he was president. I knew going in that Trump would be a fantastic president because he had been at the help of his own company.
Biden is a slow witted man child who has never made a good decision in his life he lies about everything makes things up has a ego problem and for the last 48 years in DC. he was just a boot licking yes man to keep a job.
The simple minded fools who voted for him must have the same problems idiots on the march.
“Trump was a CEO and he acted just like one when he was president. I knew going in that Trump would be a fantastic president because he had been at the help of his own company.”
Yup-HE signed peoples’ pay checks, so he knew about accountability!
true dat.
Considering the shape he is in, how can he possibly enjoy his presidency? He would be happier spending his waning days on a golf course in a sand trap.
Since my 87yo mother has started to sink deeper into a state of dementia, her temper has become so short that she gets seizures from getting so angry. President Silveralert is no doubt going through the same process.
There is no “acting” involved.
Wanna bet Madman Speaker who has had absolutely no hesitation about ignoring the Constitution, the law, and precedent in the past will let that stop her from seizing absolute power?
Any side bets on how loud the objections will be from CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, WaPo, NYT, and even Fox?
To quote (Edgar) the bug, "Your proposal is acceptable."
IMHO I never thought Alzheimer's was the condition that caused Biden's dementia.
I believe the above paragraph from the article is closer to the truth.
I am not close to him, so I don't hear the repetitious questions asked in a short period of time, or have witnessed his delusions and hallucinations , which are also Alzheimer's symptoms.
No doubt though , we all know he has some form of dementia, and Biden shows those symptoms. -Tom
It can be both.......................
NO ONE will publicly remember that in all the excitement.
You won’t see it on the news, you won’t read in on twitter, there won’t be single surviving faceboob post, and google will return no search results.
Anyone who says otherwise will become an instant non-person, and lose all internet presence, and any ability to earn a living or use a credit card...
...with his little plastic shovel and bucket!
Thank God my Alzheimer’s addled 92yo mom hasn’t gotten to that stage.
Perhaps we need a children of Alzheimer’s ping list? There are days I could really use the support.
