Mika Brzezinski of MSNBC went on a tirade over Joe Biden’s staff and their inability to handle issues related to his age. The cohost of “Morning Joe”, alongside husband Joe Scarborough, explained that Joe Biden’s staff is much to blame for many of the on-air mistakes that the general public witnesses.
From the incident involving the President tripping over a sandbag to the times when he appears lost on stage all fall on the staff to manage. Brzezinski did acknowledge the President’s advanced age but she still shifted much of the blame onto those around him instead of Joe Biden himself. MSNBC has done at least one other segment in relation to the 80-year-old President. According to recent poll data, nearly 70% of all Americans find Joe Biden’s age of some concern.
