New photos show cheat sheets used by Biden during his first press conference
New York Post ^ | 3/25/21 | Kenneth Gager

New photos reveal several cheat sheets used by President Joe Biden during his Thursday press conference — including one with the headshots and names of reporters he planned to call on.

The president also used notes to assist with facts about US infrastructure, a policy area Biden is focusing on during his first months in the White House.

“The United States now ranks 13th globally in infrastructure quality — down from 5th place in 2002,” read one bullet point.

But despite having the answers in front of him, Biden still slipped up, saying America ranked 85th in the world in infrastructure, before correcting himself.

The press pool at Thursday’s briefing, the first one held by Biden since taking office 65 days ago, was limited to 25 reporters.

Biden only took questions from a list of journalists whose names and outlets he read from a cue card. A photo of the card shows circled numbers around select reporters.

I don't see a problem with having some factoids in front of you. I do when I'm speaking.

The difference between Trump and Biden is Trump had all the necessary facts in his head. Biden doesn't have anything in his head. He read practically everything from the cheat sheets. Most of that was ridiculous banalities. Like how to get out of Afghanistan he read that we would meet with allies and will pull troops in a safe and orderly "mechanically" getting them out. Probably mechanisms or something on the cheat sheet but he blurted out "mechanically".

His North Korea answer was entirely cheat sheet and poorly read. He was asked what his red line was. He said "it was a violation. Consulting with allies. There will be responses. I am prepared for some form of diplomacy" 100% of that was read from the card and obviously poorly read.

That's more than factoids!

I didn't know they were that detailed. That's a script!

And that is sad.

And trust me...I am in no way a fan of Biden.

We point and sneer at Super Dementiaman and his script whilst they’re up there on the verge of molesting our second amendment to hell.

The Capitol surrounded by National Guard to protect them from all the evil they intend.

Yeah, groper Joe was reading from a script, it’s only amazing that he could read.

Thank God it’s not, or we’d be in even bigger trouble.

He had a sheet of reporters headshots with the numbers written next to the ones preapproved to ask questions.

We have here another wake-up call for the low-info “I don’t follow politics” voters who only voted Biden because the people on TV told them President Trump was “mean.”

I saw that....didn't know about the numbers and such.

I remember being brand new in my career attending meetings with sales associates, I would write their names down where they were seating until I learned them all. It was a neat little trick.

The photos of the reporters had circled numbers next to them, to detail the order in which they should be called, with a matching answer somewhere amidst the papers to the questions they were going to ask. At one point, a reporter asked a gun control question and Joe started talking about infrastructure. Oops.

If Biden pulled down his pants, pee’d on them (in front of every press official) and then started mumbling, it would be covered up for 90% of the population before you could blink an eye.

What is “calling” out “this administration” going to do?

I would hope that a POTUS, newly elected or not, would be operating on a little higher level than that.

I watched about two minutes of it. His long pause with his head cocked before answering a question told me the pause was for him to listen to someone coaching him through an earpiece. His facial expression made it so obvious that he was listening to coaching. What a sick farce!

.....”one with the headshots and names of reporters he planned to call on”....

Which is what family's do so their parents with Alzeheimer's/dementia can remember and identify who they are.

When all is said and done this will be known as the greatest bloodless coup in human history.

It wasn't bloodless. They murdered an unarmed woman as part of a broader pretext to call everyone opposed to the coup as a domestic terrorist. Her blood was spilled completely unnecessarily and the media and the government are both pretending it never happened. But it did.

Questions were given in advance to loyal RAT reporters.
The answers were given to Bite Me in advance too.
Plus he had cheat sheets. And probably an ear piece to
hear prompts.
