Biden 'Fumed to His Friends' About His Own Aides After Infamous Putin Comment: New Book
- A new book claims that President Joe Biden complained to friends about being treated like a toddler by his staff after they walked back a comment he made about Russian President Vladimir Putin in March 2022, implying he should not remain in power. The book suggests Biden resented his aides for cleaning up his mistake and leaving the impression they had fixed his mess.
- The White House clarified that Biden's point was about preventing Putin from exercising power over his neighbors, not discussing regime change in Russia. This incident adds to a pattern of Biden expressing resentment towards his staff.
- The book highlights Biden's feelings of self-pity and resentment after the incident, and it suggests he compared his treatment to that of John Kennedy. The book also reveals Biden's inclination to complain about his aides and portrays him as not taking ownership of his mistakes.
