Politico’s Sarah Ferris reports that President Joe Biden was blocked by his handlers from taking questions “INSIDE the caucus” room following today’s meeting with Dems on Capitol Hill to negotiate infrastructure spending as well as his Build Back Better agenda:
INSIDE the caucus:
At the end of his remarks, BIDEN offered to take questions from members but his staff jumped in.
He didn't take any questions.

That’s right. His staff won’t let him take questions from Dems:
The President can't even go into a meeting with his own party without having jr. handlers around to tackle him. Not normal.

And who are these unnamed staffers?
So who in his "staff" is actually in charge? https://t.co/8BWyLqTVIH

We’d really like to know:
Sarah, who were the staff members who jumped in?

Because “if your staff thinks you’re not capable of answering questions from friendly partisans about your core agenda they’re basically conceding you’re not capable of running the country”:

This really is insane:
Biden’s handlers won’t even let him take questions behind closed doors https://t.co/B0THN9N6lx

Why?
