Biden brought cheat sheet to press conference, had advanced knowledge of reporters' questions

A hand-written note above LA Times reporter Courtney Subramanian's name and picture informed Biden that she would be asking "Question #1."

President Joe Biden has once again been caught with a press conference cheat sheet, this time including not only the names of the reporters he was supposed to call on, but their questions as well.

Biden's notes were spotted by a reporter as the 80-year-old prepared to take the stage during a joint conference with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol in Washington, DC.

According to photos obtained by the New York Post, Biden's "Reporter Q&A" cheat sheet instructed him on who to call first. A hand-written note above Los Angeles Times reporter Courtney Subramanian's name and picture informed Biden that she would be asking "Question #1."

The text of Subramanian's first question, "How are YOU squaring YOUR domestic priorities — like reshoring semiconductors manufacturing — with alliance-based foreign policy?" can clearly be seen underneath the heading, "Foreign Policy / Semiconductor Manufacturing."

Sure enough, when the press conference kicked off, Subramanian was the first reporter to be called on, however despite clearly written instructions on how to pronounce her last name, Biden referred to her simply as Courtney.

The wording of her question differed from that which was written on the notecard, however the subject area was the same.

Nonetheless, images of Biden's cheat sheet made their way across social media and were met with criticism.

"This is so humiliating," one user wrote.

"That's just embarrassing for Biden and for the reporters, but mostly its embarrassing for America that this doofus is our president," another quipped.

This is not the first time Biden has been caught with a cheat sheet. In both 2021 and 2022 he was spotted with a notecard depicting journalists' names and faces, as well as instructions on how and when to sit down.

Russell Brand slammed Biden for needing assistance when it came to simple human movements, saying, "If you have to give someone instructions for how to conduct basic protocols, it's probably not the best time of their life for them to run a country."

"How do we know it wasn’t the other way around? What if the WH gave the question to the reporter?"

You are correct. It was a somewhat complex question. By answering a complex question with prepared answers the purpose was to portray Biden as mentally adept. He is not mentally adept. Biden has senile dementia.

Satan is probably showing this to Joseph Goebbels right now, taunting him with “Why didn’t you think of that!”

I bet a lot of world leaders wish Trump were still president. Iran would not be closer to nuclear weapons, Putin would not have invaded Ukraine, Chinese jets would not be buzzing Taiwan.

Heck, this is NOT a surprise anymore.

As far back as 2016, Hillary Clinton was given the debate questions the CNN Moderators would be asking IN ADVANCE for her to prep her answers when she debated Trump.

See here :

Her aide, Donna Brazile ( who worked for CNN then ) gave her the questions.

She was fired for doing that later. Luckily, it didn’t help Hillary. She had to concoct the “ Russia hoax” as revenge for losing.

What??? Seriously! Why not just sit in the O office, read the question aloud, and answer it to the camera? Why waste the reporters time! They were just a prop for this illegitimate resident!

Good question, but where is the outrage from ‘the press’? Doocey needs to ask Jean Claudia van dumb if President Trump needed cheat sheets?

This is not the first cheat sheet to have YOU and YOUR capitalized. I wonder if his type of dementia has specific personal identity issues?

“Doubt he would be running if the fix was not already in.”

Agreed.

I remember growing up and noticing that third world countries had rigged elections. I always wondered how the people stood for such things. Now I’m watching first hand.

That could be a strategy. As I said, I don’t care for the practice. But to even answer a pre-known question takes some mental acuity.

This is more than pathetic. It is dangerous to have a POTUS this inept.

Nothing shocks me in today's world. But I believe Biden can lose and will lose. As Tucker said, the truth is powerful. If the GOP would start fogging mirrors again they could get the truth out about two things. 1) Biden's cognitive ability, plenty of examples, and facts like getting questions and answers beforehand. 2) The facts will prevail and the poor economy, border crisis and crime will be preeminent and should allow an easy message for the GOP.

I watched this exchange as it was happening and knew it was scripted. They were trying to make Biden look presidential. It made me cringe and laugh at the same time.

“If the GOP would start fogging mirrors again... “

I’ve seen little evidence that will happen. The economy is the key. The American public is stupid, distracted, and grossly self-interested. But the public does know how much money they have to indulge themselves. If the crash that is coming, hits before the election, Democrats are toast. The public will vote for anyone, anything that isn’t Democrat.

On the subject of a crash, it appears to me that Americans are spending using any and all available credit. At some point, they will exhaust their credit lines, and the interest on their accumulated debt will crush them. Since we are a consumer driven economy, that will be the crash.

It is pathetic that Biden can’t even hide the scam ... or maybe even worse ...

Biden probably doesn’t feel he needs to hide the scam.
