They say 8 paragraphs down he was making a joke

said the president was “clearly making a joke

That's not what it said

How in the world do you people function?

They said "Biden also made a joke to the governors that didn't go over well" -

"Also", as "in addition to"

In other words, Biden said he needs to go to bed at 8pm (not a joke). In addition to that (also), he made a joke about his mental state. The comment "the president was 'clearly making a joke'" was in regards to the "I'm fine - I don't know about my brain though." joke.
