Journo Has Interesting Theory on Why Reports of Joe Biden’s Cursing Are Suddenly Hitting All at Once

Over the past two weeks, we've been subjected to at least four different stories detailing how Joe Biden allegedly has a penchant for losing his temper, cursing out his staff, and calling political allies derogatory names behind the scenes.

There was the one from NBC News that talked about how Biden was so frustrated with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not taking his advice on war matters to the point Biden routinely called him an "a**hole" in talks with aides.

In another instance, Biden reportedly lashed out at Democrats he was meeting with on Thursday afternoon prior to his anger-filled press conference on the Hur report, exclaiming "How the f--- could I forget the day my son died?" to those in the room over the claim about Biden not remembering the year his son, Beau Biden, tragically passed away.

There was also the early February story about Biden's anger issues and his repeated use of the "f" word in describing his political opposition, including presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump, and the "Biden explodes at staffers over the border crisis" articles.

Now, under normal circumstances, these stories would be viewed as "dog bites man" type things. I mean, pretty much everyone curses, and when you're in a powerful position like Biden you kind of expect the cursing to be more free-flowing than normal. Not that it necessarily makes it okay; it's just the reality of the matter.

But all these stories of Biden lashing out at people hitting all at once have some speculating that the leaks are part of a coordinated White House election-year plan to make Biden appear to be "engaged" in light of the memory problems the Special Counsel, Robert Hur, mentioned in his report.

Here's what Puck News reporter Tara Palmeri suggested might be going on:

The number of stories about Biden cursing people out since the Hur report came out is comical - cursed about Hur, called Netanyahu an "asshole," cursed out his staff over migration. Perhaps his team sees the fury leaks as a way to show that he's engaged & fighting.

RedState's own Nick Arama had a similar thought after the "f" word story dropped:

Now, I might wonder why they're leaking this all of a sudden, but the answer is clear. He's doing so badly in the polls, including with people on the left, they're hoping they can pretend that he has some life in him to encourage them to vote for him.

If this is true, it's a really dumb tactic that in my view won't work, because routinely cursing out and belittling your staff is not a sign of "being engaged" and "being a fighter." It's a sign that a person has lost control over a situation and/or that they are overly reliant on their staffers, which are exactly the underlying issues with someone in Joe Biden's position having "poor memory," as Hur described.

Between this and the "he really is sharp and focused when the cameras aren't rolling!" nonsense coming from cabinet members and other high-profile Democrats, there is an astonishing level of "let us insult their intelligence" going on from Team Biden that may come back and bite them in the you-know-where come fall when the presidential debates (assuming they even happen) start.

Voters will be reminded all over again exactly why Robert Hur said what he did in that report and why for the entirety of Joe Biden's time in the Oval Office a growing number of Americans have expressed deep concerns about his age and mental acuity.

Sadly for the Biden administration and campaign, the elephant in the room has roared back to life in a presidential election year, and the only person who can be blamed for it is Joe Biden himself.
