Report: Biden Has a ‘Short Fuse’ — Goes on Profanity Laced Tirades at Aides
GATEWAY PUNDIT ^ | 5/14/2021 | Cassandra Fairbanks

Posted on 05/15/2021 9:20:33 AM PDT by bitt

President Joe Biden reportedly has a very short fuse and a tendency to go on profanity-laced tirades at his staff, according to a report from the New York Times. You know things are bad when even the Times has to acknowledge it.

The newspaper spoke to over two dozen current and former Biden staffers, who painted a portrait of a “president with a short fuse, who is obsessed with getting the details right – sometimes to a fault.”

The Times reports that “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.”

“Mr. Biden is gripped by a sense of urgency that leaves him prone to flares of impatience, according to numerous people who regularly interact with him,” the report continues. “The president has said he expects to run for a second term, but aides say he understands the effect on his ability to advance his agenda if Republicans regain power in Congress next year.”

They added, in no uncertain terms, that “he will often snap.”

The report says that Biden “takes days or weeks to make up his mind as he examines and second-guesses himself and others” and that it is a “method of governing that can feel at odds with the urgency of a country still reeling from a pandemic and an economy struggling to recover. “

We had a family member with Alzheimers who first became angry and profane, then paranoid, then violent.

Same here. He didn't last long after the violent episodes. I don't know if they increased the sedatives and that helped finish him off but his mind was mostly gone. When he was lucid, he was really really angry that he was locked up. But I thought it was poetic justice as he had my grandmother committed to a nursing home that I was thought prematurely. But it allowed him time to "manage her assets". When she passed, the fortune she had had strangely dwindled to small potatoes.

If you have ever had the misfortune of dealing with a relative with cognizant decline, this is common. In their moments of clarity they realize that they are going down and being treated as a puppet — not in reality but that is what it looks like to them. So, they lash out.
I say, give him a gun. One with a big clip. He’s bound to take out a bunch of losers before the SService tackles him. Overall, small loss. Darned interesting play on MSM, tho.

His “sense of urgency” is dementia.

“Mr. Biden is gripped by a sense of urgency that leaves him prone to flares of impatience ...” the report continues.

“The report says that Biden “takes days or weeks to make up his mind as he examines and second-guesses himself and others...”

Hey NYT, WHICH IS IT? A) Biden is gripped by a sense of urgency; or, B) he takes weeks to dither and second-guess indecisively? Aren’t these mutually exclusive concepts? It’s almost as if the NYT is foundering in BS to make it seem as if Biden is engaged...

Or, what happens if he goes into the Oval Office with the Colonel carrying the Football and orders a strike somewhere.

“president with a short fuse, who is obsessed with getting the details right – sometimes to a fault.”

A hundred, billion, million percent of the time. There must be a contest among the media; who can write the most ridiculous BS and keep a straight face.

Your wording “if he goes into the Oval Office with the Colonel carrying the football” instantly reminded me of the board game, “CLUE”.
Only in this case, it’s “CLUELESS”!
