Biden has had similar teleprompter-related gaffes in the past, including one from 2021 where he audibly reads "end of quote."

Biden's apparent propensity to read off everything that is written on a teleprompter has led some to draw comparisons between Biden and Will Ferrell's character Ron Burgundy, who famously reads everything that is written on a teleprompter, verbatim.

The president's reliance on teleprompters has even drawn the attention of Tesla and Space X CEO Elon Musk, who said in May that the "real president is whoever controls the teleprompter."
