Biden's White House aides admit they don't know what his odd sayings mean: report
Axios reported Sunday that Biden's aides often have no idea what he means by his 'wacky phrases'
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The White House had no explanation for President Biden's "God Save the Queen" remarks at the end of a speech on gun control, according to Axios, which spoke to several aides about the president's "wacky phrases."
Olivia Dalton, White House principal deputy press secretary, told reporters after his speech that he "was commenting to someone in the crowd."
Biden's aides are often confused by his "quirky aphorisms," Axios reported.

He also uttered another phrase he once used toward a student who questioned him about his fourth-place standing in the 2020 Iowa caucuses:
"Is that the truth? Now, do not make a lie – as that scene in the John Wayne movie – don't make me a dog-faced, lying, pony-soldier," Biden said, this time about the reported incoming storm.

"As a proud Irishman whose ancestors probably weren't fans of the crown, Biden may use the phrase more as sarcasm," Axios reported.
The outlet cited former and current Biden aides who said they "still aren't sure" what he meant by the phrase.

Former Democratic candidate for president Hillary Clinton noted that his age is an issue, during an interview with the Financial Times in May.
"But his age is an issue, and people have every right to consider it," Clinton said. "But, you know, he has this great saying – and I think he's right – don't judge him for running against the Almighty but against the alternative. I am of the camp that I think he's determined to run; he has a good record that, three years ago, people would not have predicted would have gotten done."
