On Thursday, President Biden unwittingly displayed a detailed, comic-based cheat sheet prepared by his staff in which he instructed the goggle-prone free world leader to “take his seat” and limit his comments to “2 minutes”.
A photographer took a picture of the document when Biden held him back at a meeting with wind industry executives, which he attended after skipping his administration’s morning meeting with oil companies on fighting prices gas record.
The instructions prepared for Biden, entitled “Sequence of Sea Wind Fall Events,” tell Biden to “enter the Roosevelt Room and greet the participants.”
Then the newspaper says, “YOU occupy your seat.”
The typed note says that after the reporters arrive, “YOU MAKE BRIEF COMMENTS (2 MINUTES).”
When reporters leave, “YOU ask Liz Shuler, president of the AFL-CIO,” and then “YOU thank the participants” and “YOU leave.”
Biden’s use of staff notes at events has been embarrassing before, such as last July, when an aide wrote, “Sir, there’s something on your chin.” Biden also kept that note because he confronted journalists and photographers.

Biden has been informed that staff are trying to control his message to the point that he even contradicts his unexpected public statements without consulting with him.
Biden reminded staff that he is president after they said he did not want to say what he said in March when he called for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be removed from power by the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
“The so-called cleaning campaign, he told advisers, undermines it and suffocates the authenticity that drove its rise. Worse, it feeds a Republican discussion point that is not completely in command, “he told NBC News last month.
A day after Biden’s comment about Putin, White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain retweeted a message from CNN White House correspondent John Harwood saying Biden’s comment showed a “failed important in the discipline “.
Republicans often accuse the 79-year-old president of being mentally declining. Former President Donald Trump claimed before the 2020 election that Biden was cognitively “shot”.
