    He's got this part right. I am hoping it is the same for rational people in the USSR.. but there is a strong chance that Putin will use it anyway to strengthen his hand.

    Raising the bar? When it comes to Biden we were told to lower our expectations.

    Simple notes =/= prepared responses to questions that friendly media 'journalists' have sent prior notice that they intend to ask. And between me making this thread and getting back on tonight to respond to your comment, senile Brandon has made ANOTHER gaffe this time possibly leaking classified information. That's four major blunders within a weeks time, all of serious consequence to this war.

    CHINA: Biden Pushing Ukraine Crisis into ‘Nuclear War.’ “No matter how well Biden’s propaganda machine works, it cannot downplay the fact that such a blunt statement at a sensitive time could further inflame the situation. This was unwise and irresponsible, reflecting a dire problem within U.S. policy-making: some politicians are taking their personal grievances to the national level.”

    I may not agree with the Lying Polluting Outlaw Slavers of Beijing about anything else, but, they make a good point here.

    This topic is about how unusual it is for a US president to have notes.
    The answer is: it's absolutely normal.
    And you right wing lot were not aware.

    You're now pushing the goalpost to a whole different discussion.

    To read a speach not to remind him what he thinks and feels.

    Notes to remind of FACTS. Like the six parts of a program or the exact numbers of something. NOT what they are supposed to be thinking and feeling.

    Oh give it up this is not about Trump and your misrepresentations do not mitigate the fact that Biden is too mentally incompetent to continue to be President as was on full display this past week and has now reached the danger point.

    Good grief.

    You need an Obama or a JFK to do a detailed press conference without some sort of help. A lot of presidents had cheat sheets laid on the podium.

    40 years ago, there was a senator from Conn, and she knew a ton of stuff cold. Unlike most politicians, she wasn't averse to doing her job, and knew what she was talking about. When she didn't know, she didn't BS, she said that she would get back to you.

    I mention her because someone in Congress doesn't have a podium to hide behind, or staff to handle most questions in advance.

    Get a f**king grip, kiddies.

    It's been a while since Bumbling Brandon has been in office but I still wince at his endless gaffs and evasions.

    This too is pushing goalposts.

    The topic started with the OP mocking that Biden needs a cheat sheet.
    The joke is on the people who mock Biden over that. Loads of presidents use that or a teleprompter or something.
    Kind of it. Stop trying to save face by pushing the goalpost.

    Honestly, I don't think the real issue is that he has queue cards here. He just outright lied and said he never made the statements that he was captured on video saying. It's like he thinks all he has to do is deny that he said those things. Of course, he did say them. The real question is why the MSM won't report on it...

    Because they helped steal the election for a dementia patient , who hid in his basement and when he did come out, the press outnumbered any supporters.

    if one is gonna bash Biden for doing something Trump also did, it's a valid comparison - especially as Trump plans to run in 2024

    If its any other politician then I chalk it up to typical political lies and then yes of course the MSM will run interference if it aids the party. But with Brandon, and his issues with senility and dementia, we also have to ask: Does he even remember saying those things?
