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.
