Staffers for President Biden provide him instructions with large print and photos of venue interiors and his planned path of entry ahead of events the 81-year-old commander-in-chief attends, according to a report.
Documents obtained by Axios on Sunday show how staff help guide Biden – including his specific path to a podium – when he appears at functions. The report comes as the Democrat faces relentless questions about whether he is fit for the Oval Office after an awful debate performance last month against presumptive GOP opponent, former President Donald Trump.
“It surprised me that a seasoned political pro like the president would need detailed verbal and visual instructions on how to enter and exit a room,” a person who staffed a Biden event in the past 18 months told the outlet.
“I staffed a simple fundraiser at a private residence, but they treated it like it was a NATO summit with his movements,” the unidentified staffer also said.
The White House sends event staffers a template to follow when getting their own guidance ready for the president as part of what’s known as “advance work,” according to Axios.
One template reportedly shows a large photo of the event space on each page with big text like “View from podium” and “View from audience.” Two pages also gave separate photos with “Walk to the podium” accompanying the pictures.
But a White House spokesperson downplayed the instructions, telling Axios that “high levels of detail and precision are critical to presidential advance work — regardless of who is president — and these are basic approaches that are used by any modern advance team, including the vice president’s office and agencies.”

Lately, Joe’s been doing a stupid skip-jump before walking - probably his staff is telling him it makes him look more energetic.
I wonder if they put the skip-jump instruction on the floor, too.
They have the bathrooms marked,little boys room and little girls room.
Joe..for some inexplicable reason perfers the little girls room. Often he will be in there for hours.

These perpetual liars lie perpetually. What is new? Hopefully each will receive justice one way or another.

No worries, the ever-creative Dems have hatched the perfect plan to replace him:
That three step skip is utterly ridiculous. He looks so young, so spry, so full of vigor…NOT!
What idiot tells grandpa “here’s how you can look younger”?
When my daughter was in high school she told us of one class where the students were so dumb that all the tests were open book. Unfortunately, the majority of the kids still flunked the tests.
The “blitz primary” is creative—give credit for that.
It would of course devolve into a ferocious piggy pile in a matter of days!
And just what we’d need: President Swift!
I am thinking about the “rank choice voting” piece of the proposed blitz primary.
That actually rewards ferocious attacks and nasty negative advertising.
Candidates would identify chief competitors and try to destroy them—minor skirmishes would not get the job done.
But they’ve specified positive campaigning only!
I think they ought to invite Trump to moderate an Apprentice-style competition. Talk about TV ratings!
“These documents are standard logistical briefing materials and photos for any principal, including the vice president,” the veep’s spokesperson said.”
“including the vice president.” Like we couldn’t
have guessed.
1. Overwhelm parent with aura of office.
2. Wave child into reach.
3. Grasp firmly while uttering reassuring phrases.
4. Go in for as many whiffs as possible.
5. Grope if child stays still.
6. Release before parent gets too disturbed.
Anyone who refuses to campaign positively gets viciously attacked.
Lol.
If they want TV ratings round robin duels are the way to go.
If they refuse to use guns long knives would do.
Ooh, duels would be great!
What’s next?
Joe. Joe. Over hear Joe.
Joe can you spell farm?
Joe: Um, don’t tell me. I know this.
Um…E-I-E-I-O
