Joe Biden has expressed frustration to allies that his candidacy will suffer if he is judged too harshly on the slip-ups, which he thinks he can do little to correct so long as he is being true to himself
Let this sink in: Biden “has expressed frustration to allies that his candidacy will suffer if he is judged too harshly on the slip-ups, which he thinks he can do little to correct so long as he is being true to himself.”
there's the strong trail moment, followed by a blunder that dominates coverage. it's a pattern that's deeply frustrating Biden allies. their response: to argue that Biden has always been gaffe-prone, & try to shift focus to rivals' missteps

the sourcing for the "his own staff is worried" is incredibly weak, no indication of how many, at what level or even their specific phrasing. If you are going to do a hit piece do better.
