That’s often the problem when using a front man. He doesn’t always know or follow what the real power holders want him to do.
Shades of Woodrow Wilson’s wife.

actually, i think the prez CAN declare a national emergency & mobilize the Guard. I’m guessing dementia joe’s handlers simply don’t want the problem fixed: all part of their deliberate destruction of the U.S., while laying the blame on clueless, confused, demented joe ...
lots of precedent for sending in the troops, e.g.:
Andrew Jackson became a strikebreaker in 1834 when he sent troops to the construction sites of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.3 War Department employees operated the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad during the Civil War .4 In the violent rail strikes of 1877, Rutherford B. Hayes sent troops to prevent obstruction of the mails.5 Grover Cleveland used soldiers to break the Pullman strike of 1894.

Did anyone—for even a nanosecond—believe this mushbrain’s promise to do anything remotely useful for the United States? He is a pool of fetid feces emanating foul smells and lies, disease and destruction.

Apparently, the president is not the one in charge.

Who in the White House decided Biden didn't mean what he said? It would seem that person or persons feels they have more authority than Biden. Imagine telling your “boss” he's wrong and something will not be done despite what the boss said. I'm not saying Biden is right or wrong, I'm commenting that people who work in the administration shouldn't be “walking back” his words.

I recently found out that “Bidens” is a genus of flowering plants!!!! Te name comes from the Latin for “two teeth”!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bidens
The common name for these plants is beggarticks. The fruits of the plants, most of which are bristly and barbed, have two sharp structures at the end. They will stick to clothing of humans, and fur or feathers of other creatures. That is how these plants propagate themselves.
The plants know as “Bidens” are thus a nuisance to people! The family known as the bidens are worse than a nuisance!! PHOOEY to them!!!!

I was a poll worker. There could not be enough cheating to win like Newsome did. Blacks and Asians made it impossible to recall him. CA is getting what they voted for. Problem is, repercussions now extend well beyond the border with throttling of port capacity.

Biden probably believes what he said. Until he gets the next order from Obummer...

Why was Biden trotted out on CNN to make a fool of himself? Who made that call?
And why were CNN’s questions intentionally long - making it harder for a mentally impaired person to follow?
The Townhall was a set up...

So what was the point of the Town Hall, then?
The only thing people will remember is that everything Biden said had to be corrected later.
