Some apparently prefer to forgo watching the president live and learn about any potential issues later, a strategy they claim saves them the mental anguish of listening to Biden screw up in real-time.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/newsletters\/west-wing-playbook\/2021\/09\/07\/biden-anxiety-levels-494228\">Politico<\/a> reports:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"18\">\n<p><em>When Biden gives public remarks, some White House staffers will either mute him or turn off his remarks, according to White House officials.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>It\u2019s not that they\u2019re indifferent to what their boss has to say. Indeed, their livelihoods are directly invested in it. Rather, they\u2019re filled with anxiety that he\u2019s going to take questions from the press and veer off the West Wing\u2019s carefully orchestrated messaging.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI know people who habitually don\u2019t watch it live for that reason,\u201d said one current official.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>White House staff often recommend that the president not take questions.

On several occasions, Biden has been <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/watch-biden-slammed-after-admitting-he-is-given-a-list-of-pre-selected-reporters-to-call-on\">caught<\/a> using a preselected list of reporters to call on during press conferences put together by his staff.<\/p>\n<p>Politico recounted a list of Biden\u2019s \u201cverbal miscues\u201d and \u201cself-inflicted wounds\u201d:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"16\">\n<p><em>The 2020 election may have proved Biden\u2019s point. But lately, his verbal miscues have been causing headaches for him and his team. Biden has delivered several self-inflicted wounds during freewheeling Q&amp;A sessions that required immediate clean-up. On Afghanistan, he told reporters that a Taliban takeover of the country was \u201chighly unlikely,\u201d said Al Qaeda was \u201cgone\u201d from Afghanistan when it wasn\u2019t, and declared that he\u2019d seen \u201cno question of our credibility\u201d from allies when there had been a lot.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Biden has even flubbed scripted remarks, such as when he said the administration had evacuated 90 percent of Americans from Afghanistan when he was supposed to say 98 percent.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In several instances, Biden has been caught making claims that he should have known were false before he made them, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/opinion-did-joe-biden-lie-about-visiting-synagogue-after-2018-mass-shooting-probably-but-we-shouldnt-be-surprised\">raising questions<\/a> as to whether the president knowingly lies to the American people to bolster his message or image. In remarks to Jewish leaders last week, Biden claimed to have visited Pittsburgh\u2019s Tree of Life synagogue, the site of a mass shooting in 2018 that killed 11 people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI used to think that hate could be defeated, it could be wiped out. But I learned a long time ago, it can\u2019t. It only hides. It hides. It hides under the rocks. And given any oxygen at all, it comes out. It\u2019s a minority view, but it comes out, and it comes outraging.
