It didn’t appear that way - he only looked down to check the reporter to call on next. He either had memorized the responses or was reading from a prompter in the back.
"Salute the Marines" was over an in-ear piece.
Look, when it happens, it will happen fast so they can memory hole it and celebrate Karamela. Although if Pelosi has to get involved with her 25A Committee or attempt Impeachment3, gosh won't both of those be interesting lol.
That's why there is at least a 3-in-10 chance of a military junta instead of Karamela -- why replace a puppet with another puppet? Why wouldn't the Deep State finally emerge with horns on and breathing fire, rather than take uncertain/unpredictable/unwanted/unprocessed orders from a McDonald's night-shift manager McHeels ho?
Yet another reason to believe it will be no later than Labor Day-ish is the longer the Deep State waits, the longer "Dr" Jill has her choice of appointments everywhere; and Biden would certainly replace Breyer with the uber-cautious middle-left Garland (literally the best we could hope for - sad); rather than Karamela appointing some radical bug-eyed hoodoo know-nothing noodnik like Angela Davis ... or maybe Okra.
Our only chance in 2024 will be if Karamela is tainted with losing Taiwan and/or another Depression. 50/50 and/or 50/50.
I just watched a bit of the “press conference” on Tucker Carlson. It certainly looked like Biden read, and read poorly, an answer. His head was down the entire time.
