Sure why not? It's easy to forget details and points under stress.You need notes to clarify what you’ve recently said?
I'm 32 and I regularly get sidetracked or caught up in what I'm talking about and forget to say something that I originally intended to say. If I were in a position where doing that could have major consequences, you'd better bet I'd have notes.You need notes to clarify what you’ve recently said?
And so Biden had a news conference and explained his statement. He doesn't believe that someone like Putin should be the leader of a country but he wasn't suggesting that anyone take him out by any illegal means.I think there could be problems when one major world leader thinks another major world leader needs to be ousted.
Maybe this bit:I was not articulating
That's some pretty fine hair splitting.That looks like talking points, not answers to questions that he might be asked to clear up previous points.
I don’t recall that happening. Do you have a link?
I don’t need notes to remember my opinion. Maybe that’s because I’m not trying to cover up anything.Sure why not? It's easy to forget details and points under stress.
Isn't this awfully petty? This hearkens back to the whole teleprompter trope you guys loved to trot out two presidencies ago.
And you’d need notes to clarify? Okay.I'm 32 and I regularly get sidetracked or caught up in what I'm talking about and forget to say something that I originally intended to say. If I were in a position where doing that could have major consequences, you'd better bet I'd have notes.
Then I’d have issues with those, if they had been brought up.I googled "trump notes". Except for the Wapo link, I don't think any are duplicates.

Literally the pic I shared is Trump’s hand holding his own handwritten notes guiding him on what to tell the press about his talks with Zelensky.I don’t recall that happening. Do you have a link?
Why is that sad?It’s sad that he had to have someone type up what he meant so that he’d get it right.
I do sometimes. It depends what I was talking about, what’s happened since then and how important it is that I stay close to what I had originally said.Do you need notes to explain what you said a few days ago?
Comparing that list to the couple basic lines Trump needed help remembering so he wouldn’t incriminate himself isn’t really the gotcha you seem to think it is.View attachment 314560 ICYMI, here’s the notes.
Good for Biden sounds like.Biden used cheat sheet while doubling down on unscripted message to oust Putin
His comments closely aligned with notes printed on a small piece of paper that he was photographed holding in his left hand as he spoke that began as follows:
- If you weren’t advocating for regime change, what did you mean? Can you clarify?
- I was expressing the moral outrage I felt towards the actions of this man
- I was not articulating a change in policy
Biden both needs to be much stronger on Putin but also not say anything that could potentially escalate the situation anymore than it is.Biden went off-message! Boo!
Biden went on-message! Boo!
Would I need them? Maybe. Maybe not. But I know how my mouth interacts with my brain, and sometimes I need a reminder to keep them in sync. Better to have notes and not need them than not have the notes, get sidetracked, and not make the point I was trying to make.And you’d need notes to clarify? Okay.
And
Biden said the right thing, originally. Sorta like Reagan saying "Evil Empire"
Kudos for Biden.
Yes, and yes.First off, Russia is not the fallen Soviet Union. That said, you want to compare Biden to Reagan?
Biden's incoherent ramblings pale in comparison to Reagan's articulate, eloquent, insights.
