When it comes to Joe Biden’s handlers, subtlety disappeared long ago.
Whether he’s being led by his wife Jill or White House staffers, it’s clear that Joe Biden is not the one in charge.
During his trip to Vietnam, a very tired looking Biden was giving a press conference.
As you could probably imagine, it didn’t go well.
Biden appeared exhausted and rambled on several occasions.
After apparently seeing enough, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre abruptly ended the press conference while Biden was mid-sentence.
This has many speculating further on the recent rumors that Biden feels that White House staffers treat him like a baby.

The Gateway Pundit has more on Biden’s trip:
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre interrupted and cut off Joe Biden to abruptly end his press conference in Hanoi, Vietnam Sunday evening.
Jean Pierre apparently acted to save Biden from further embarrassment in the gaffe-filled press conference that was bizarrely scheduled at the end of a whirlwind jet lag-inducing trip to India and Vietnam that wrecked the 80-year-old Biden’s body clock. Biden was so tired he told reporters, “I don’t know about you, but I’m going to go to bed.”
The move by Jean Pierre to interrupt Biden in the middle of his speaking and abruptly end the press conference comes as a new book on the Biden presidency reported he has complained his staff treats him “like a toddler.”
Is this normal?..:

Staff no longer subtle in how they control Biden.
CNN: “On Sunday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre abruptly ended a news conference with Biden in Vietnam, announcing the event had concluded even as Biden was still answering questions from reporters in the room."

This follows rumors that White House staffers treat Biden “like a baby.”
Peter Doocy recently asked Jean-Pierre about these rumors:

It certainly doesn’t appear that Biden makes many decisions for himself:

BIDEN: “I'll just follow my orders here. Staff, is there anybody that hasn't spoken yet? I ain't calling on you.”
