cheap shot…nothing wrong with “cheat sheets”

Biden, as all that give good speeches, used notes, rather than forget anything he wanted to talk about. At least, Biden doesn’t need notes to remember how to be a caring human, as Orange Traitor had to do, with limited success.

We all remember the orange one; what was it? Man, woman, camera? You don’t like autocue either do you?

Duh Furor’s White House went 300 days without a press briefing in 2020. Crickets from Kelley and the Alt-Reich on this but hardly surprising.

“Cheat sheets”? You mean, like, notes? Egads! Someone used notes at a press conference? Has such a thing EVER happened before? Shocking! /s

Yuh, this is what passes for “news” from the right-wing media.

As bad as Gorrell which is pretty bad.

Karine Jean-Pierre said the dumbest thing, that yes the President had a cheat sheet, but that the White House predicted the questions. Dumb.

As if all the presidents do not have the questions submitted by the reporters before hand, thus avoiding venturing into classified areas, or other areas they want to avoid. If tRump wanted to pull answers out of his butt, he would first have to ask the house republicans to evacuate.

Thank goodness for that, an old codger like Joe needs to keep his facts straight. trump could take some lessons from Joe.

Steve Kelley forgets the photographs of Trump’s hilarious cheat sheets. Trump misspelled al-Qaeda as “Alcaida.” Underneath that, it looks as if Trump wrote “some people.” Thanks for reminding me, Steve. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Roosevelt was the best president we ever had, and ran the country from a wheelchair. Physical health isn’t the issue, mental health is. Being older may slow you down, and mental health is an issue to be considered in any candidate, but to assume senility or mental incompetence for any reason, at any age, tells me more about the mental competence of the person assuming it than the person about whom they are assuming.

Most speakers do, they are called notes. People claim T doesn’t. He does ramble a lot.

How was that vacation in Ireland, Mr. President? Joe: What’s Ireland?

Biden did not hold a press conference. It was a pre-scripted conference.

This was no typical “cheat sheet” – It was a picture of the LA Times “journalist” with the question that that journalist would be asking. That is not normal and no recent president has done this. KJP, when questioned on this, flat out lied (nothing new, there) by saying that they prepped by listing questions that might come up, which is probably true, but that a precise question would not only pop up, it would pop out of the mouth of the journalist whose picture was on the sheet is very long odds. She/they must think the people are complete morons to buy that BS. I promise you nobody in the room of journalists buy it.

Surely, Joe was prepped on how to respond. They feel they need to control every aspect of his rare press conferences to minimize the stupidity of his comments. For example, when the WH had bring your kid to work day recently and held a Q&A, some tiny kid asked him which country he visited last. Joe couldn’t answer and started tap-dancing until the little girl shouted “Ireland, you creepy old man!” Ok, I added the creepy old man part, but that Joe couldn’t pull that out of his rusty file cabinet of a brain when he just returned from his trip to his ancestral homeland like a week ago, is sad. Now, let’s hear how it was because of his stutter.

Oh, and after the meeting with the kids, Joe started chasing them around yelling “Let me sniff your head!” :)

He drew the nasty blond woman without ridiculously pursed lips. Good work! It makes her look less miserable and hateful. Still pity her husband though.

“Cheat sheets” meant something completely different with Trump. Ask Melania.

Is it okay to say “Bite me!”? Well then, Bite me S K!!!

Especially when you have no cognitive ability left. Be thankful he can read.

When did it become wrong to read from a prepared text or use notes when speaking, but perfectly OK to create false stories about South American mental hospitals being out of business because all the patients were sent to the United States?

“Cheat sheets” with The Former Guy meant hotel linen.

So obviously Kelly thinks a press conference is a high school pop quiz. One of the busiest, most powerful people on the planet is apparently expected to speak without notes at the drop of a hat all the time?

I think when you are obviously senile calling them cheat sheets is not really fair.
