Biden claims he’s ‘catching hell’ from Jill as staff loads up his schedule
First lady Jill Biden needles her husband over his busy schedule, the president claimed during a Thursday evening press conference.
“I love my staff, but they add things,” President Joe Biden said. “They add things all the time. I’m catching hell from my wife for that.”

The aside came in response to a reporter’s question about whether Joe Biden will feel up to the presidency in two or four more years. The press conference itself was hotly anticipated in Washington as Joe Biden fights to remain the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee.
Joe Biden also attacked his opponent, former President Donald Trump, in his answer, saying he has spent the last two weeks hiding out.
“If you look at my schedule since I made that stupid mistake in the debate, my schedule has been full bore,” Joe Biden said. “Where has Trump been? Riding around in his golf cart, filing out his score card before he hits the ball. Look, he’s done virtually nothing.”
“I’ve done roughly 20 major events, some of them with thousands of people showing up,” Joe Biden added. He then acknowledged he needs to “pace myself” before swiping at his staff for adding things to his schedule.
Contrary to the claim, the spotlight on Jill Biden since the June 27 debate has focused on allegations that she is pushing her husband to seek reelection despite his frail health.
Megyn Kelly tore into the first lady’s Vogue magazine cover story last week, saying Jill Biden “turns out to be a bit of a grifter. She’s power hungry.”

Another media celebrity, podcast host Joe Rogan, wondered aloud if the first lady has “just, like, a power thing” driving her to push her husband into a second term.
However, polling suggests that voters think it is Joe Biden’s staff that’s the power behind the throne rather than his wife. A Rasmussen Reports survey found that just 9% of respondents believe Jill Biden is actually making decisions at the White House, compared to 39% who named “senior political advisers.”
