Mika Brzezinski is angry at the White House staff because she thinks they are not protecting Joe Biden enough. Protecting him how, you ask? Protecting him from himself. It is clear to even a loyal Democrat like Mika that Joe Biden is failing and she is letting his staff know that she blames them.

Mika is a swamp creature who lives in New York. Her father was Zbigniew Brzezinski, who served as a counselor to President Lyndon B. Johnson. He was the National Security Advisor to President Jimmy Carter. Her brother, Mark, is a diplomat. He was Ambassador to Sweden during the Obama years and he is now the Ambassador to Poland in the Biden administration. Mika is well-connected and tied in with the Democrats and the DNC. Mika acts like an insider. For example, in today’s show, she felt entitled to scold the White House staff. She doesn’t think they are doing their job.

She delivered a rant, letting off some steam at the expense of Biden’s handlers.

Yeah, I think his staff needs to own his age. I’m just gonna be honest, I don’t think they do a good job helping out the president and I’m not talking about it like, I’m just saying if you are managing a president’s schedule, and you are managing a president getting on stage and getting off stage and getting on planes and getting off planes, and yes, he’s 80! You need to be there for him! And you need to make a pathway and you sure as hell better make sure he doesn’t fall on a sandbag! And I blame the staff for that. I mean these are the things that are gonna hurt him, these are things that are gonna be played on a loop, ok? Let him do his job, let him do his speeches, let him work on policy, let him do his connections in Congress unlike any president that we’ve seen I don’t know, since Clinton.

But my God, make sure, you know, youthe NATO dinner’re Secret Service, you’re his staff, that you’re there and you’re telling him what’s next and it’s not becau-, don’t take this as ‘oh, he can’t even get from one place to another.’ When you’re busy and you’re on stage, and we’ve been on stage, I’ve done speeches and I’m so nervous, I’m doing the speech, I’m trying to get it right, and when it’s done, I don’t know which way to go and I’m looking for direction. So do a better job, because you can’t have these video images of the president tripping, or the president like going the wrong way. It’s not going to work in this presidency because his age is going to be a factor. His age is going to be a factor and it’s your job to ensure he gets from one place to another. He can handle the presidency, you have to handle his schedule and where he goes.

She blames the staff on Biden’s fall over a sandbag. It isn’t his schedule that is hurting him. He’s been on more vacation days than any other president in recorded history. Joe is well-rested. He was on the beach in Delaware before leaving for Europe and the NATO summit. He skipped the NATO dinner last night because he was tired. Staff said he has four full days this week and he had to prepare to give a speech.

Joe Biden has been his usual self. Every time he goes to such international events, like the NATO summit, he looks dazed and confused on the world stage.

When it was time to leave to go to Finland, at least he got up the stairs without incident.

How does his staff stop his gaffes? He makes them every single day. He falls now and then but the gaffes are daily. They can’t help that he says stupid things or can’t read a teleprompter. And, they can’t walk him around like he needs someone to do. That’s why Jill should have gone on the trip. She usually leads him around but she wasn’t on this trip. Even then, though, she can’t help him when he’s on a stage with other world leaders.

The problem is he can’t do his job. He’s old and frail. There’s no shame in that when a person is 80 but that person can’t be president and do the job. It is hard to imagine him four years from now trying to do the job. Republicans have to be smart and nominate the right candidate to take him out. The United States is a laughingstock.

Mika blames the staff because they are easy scapegoats. She doesn’t want to say the quiet part out loud.
