Biden aides set up 'wall' to shield Biden from unscripted events, interviews: book

Top White House aides set up a "wall" to shield President Biden from unscripted events and long interviews amid fears of the president’s testiness and habit of mangling statements, according to a new book.

"Peril" by Bob Woodward and Robert Costa cited a number of incidents from the gaffe-prone president in the early days of his administration, including a back-and-forth with a CNN reporter for which he later apologized.

"That side of Biden -- his tendency to at times be testy or mangle statements -- was still with him and now part of his presidency," the book says.

In turn, a number of Biden aides told the reporters that Chief of Staff Ronald Klain and then-White House advisor Anita Dunn worked to prevent such incidents by keeping him away from "unscripted events or long interviews."

"They called the effect ‘the wall,’ a cocooning of the president," they wrote.

However, the authors note that those incidents still kept appearing, despite that protective bubble.

The book says that the White House had to go into damage control mode after Biden announced he had struck a major bipartisan infrastructure deal, but then said it was contingent on a more liberal spending package being passed. 

It reportedly surprised Democrats, who saw them as separate, and angered Republicans who were unhappy about the caveat. It led to officials working the phones to repair the damage, and Biden issuing a lengthy statement to clarify his position.

Glenn Greenwald used to be a respectable journalist. He must have realized there was more money to be made in peddling Q fantasies.

Yep. Reading through the entire thread, this homo lefty is clearly peddling Q fantasies. It's ok to have the position that acknowledges reality and being good with those behaviors due to the result they garnered.
