At this point it is bizarre how he takes it everywhere, still the left says he is a smart Man.
I think the ever present teleprompter is a certain sign his staff/handlers don’t trust him. They’ve concluded (rightly so I might add) that in order for him to stay on message and sound adult like someone else’s words must be piped in for him to read. Its worse tho b/c many (most?) events which appear to have free form Q&A are all rehearsed too. His staff requires all Qs be submitted prior to the event. Those very few free form Q&A events are obvious b/c Barry wanders, stammers etc and basically bores his audience w/o ever answering the Q. His staff tries to keep those episodes to a minimum w/ as little news coverage as possible. If Barry were pressed to speak on his own the country would soon decide no one is present. He’s not a good speaker (but a fairly good reader) and he’s NOT smart.
