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