Joe Biden demands his dressing room be stocked a certain way ahead of his paid speaking engagements.
The 2020 Democratic front-runner requests that a full-length mirror, six chairs with straight backs, and a portable steamer be in his dressing room. Coke Zero, regular Coca-Cola, orange-flavored Gatorade, and black coffee are also musts, according to his riders obtained by the Washington Post.
Those hosting Biden must also serve him angel hair pomodoro, a caprese salad, and raspberry sorbet with biscotti.
Some of his contacts included $10,000 for chartered flights as well as a town car and professional driver.
Biden’s campaign said the former vice president has given fewer than 50 paid speeches since he left government. For some of those, he was paid up to $200,000. In other instances, he did not charge a fee, though he was reimbursed for travel in some cases.
The campaign declined to disclose how much Biden earned in total from the speeches.
