JOE BIDEN: “MOVE IT UP HERE”
Powerline ^ | SEPTEMBER 8, 2020 | SCOTT JOHNSON

Posted on 09/08/2020 7:18:51 AM PDT by Hojczyk

Joe Biden visibly depends on the teleprompter to get through speeches, questions and answers, and interviews. The editors of the New York Post comment in “Why is Joe Biden addicted to reading his handlers’ scripts?” Biden has a half a mind to read his lines, as soon as they scroll up before him.

Biden is enough with it to look for the answer to a scripted question on a teleprompter in a virtual event with the instruction “Move it up here.” Biden can call for the answer and read the answer fed to him, but does so in the clip below in a weirdly dissociated fashion. Biden was laboring in honor of Labor Day.

RedState’s Nick Arama places the clip “in context” in “Worn Out Biden Short Circuits Yet Again, Struggles to Get Thru Interview Question During Virtual Event.”. How fake can you get? It reminds me of the old Soviet joke on their economy: “We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us.”

What may be happening here (and on other virtual sessions)-- he needs the teleprompter *because an aide is typing in what the response should be.* The virtual equivalent of using an IFB, but being *told* what to say wouldn't really work, so why not read the answer in real time?

@abigailmarone

Joe Biden orders his staff to move up his teleprompter and lets out a very labored sigh while waiting for the prompter to scroll.

Is he ok? Why can’t he answer a question without a teleprompter?

“Or jam it with static”

Or better yet, electronically hijack it and feed him some over-the-top crazy lines (”I’m wearing Jill’s underwear right now,” “Hunter shared his Bolivian marching powder with me before I came outh here” etc).

“Which is why we will establish re-education camps when I am elected president!”

Aahh..Or just give him a broken feed with a 25 second delay.
