As we saw on the campaign trail while the media looked the other way, Joe Biden has a problem with his temper. He frequently lashed out at voters, calling a young woman a “lying dog-faced pony soldier,” absurdly challenging a young man to a fight, and ridiculing a fellow’s appearance. As his mind deteriorates, the problem can be expected to get worse:

Biden has a short temper and sometimes unloads outbursts of profanity on his aides, the New York Times reported Friday.

The report notes Biden holds lengthy deliberation meetings and demands obsessive details from his advisors. When advisors get too technical or obscure about an issue, Biden responds with “an outburst of frustration, often laced with profanity.”

The NY Times piece moves on to the sort of Biden coverage we have come to expect from the liberal establishment media, noting that he likes vanilla chocolate chip Haagen-Dazs ice cream, Special K cereal, and orange Gatorade.

For more on the temper issue, let’s turn to AgingCare:

Outbursts are common with many kinds of dementia and at various stages throughout the progression of the condition. As tempting as it is to try to reason with someone who is cognitively impaired, the truth is that this will only make matters worse.

That goes double if the person in question is a Democrat.

As he continues to deteriorate, things could get increasingly unpleasant for Biden’s handlers:

A person with dementia may react verbally or [be] physically aggressive. Examples include threatening another person, screaming, pinching, pulling hair, and biting.

You can see why they took away the nuclear codes.
