And that’s exactly the benefit of having your aides leak answers instead of answering questions directly.
The Biden team leaks “one term president” to quell the narrative about his age. This creates a news cycle so that a slice of the electorate, people like commenter Bipta, are led to believe it’s a promise.
But theres a tiny amount of plausible deniability so that people like you can come in after the fact and mischaracterize it as “an unknown advisor” (the story quotes 4 high level advisors, which is a very high bar for these types of leaks) and then dismiss the story as if it was just a rumor.

OC presented their statement as fact when it was actually an unconfirmed leak, and I’m the one mischaracterizing stuff? C’mon. I’m not blaming the OC, they were wrong and got corrected. You want to argued about how accurate the leak is that’s fine, Biden still never promised to be a one term president and making that claim is inaccurate.
