Rumor has it that someone from the Biden campaign made recordings of the candidate’s prep sessions, and leaked one of the recordings from late Tuesday afternoon. It reveals that in a last-ditch effort to minimize the risk that the candidate would misstate a fact, misremember an event, misidentify a person or location, or suffer some other kind of senior moment, Biden’s instructions were pared down to an absolute minimum:
- If Trump says something about you, just say that it’s been discredited.
- If Trump says something about himself, just say that he’s lying.
- If Trump says something about ‘your son’, act like he means Beau.
- Never, ever look directly at Trump.
It’s just a rumor, but it would certainly explain at least half of what happened at the first debate, wouldn’t it?
