White House works to correct Biden’s remarks at ‘ridiculous’ rate

While President Joe Biden is known for his blunders and colorful turns of phrase, his staffers increasingly are correcting his words after the fact via strikethroughs in the White House transcript.

The written record of a May 19 campaign speech in Detroit includes no less than nine corrections, a few of which created mini-news cycles of their own in real time.

One was when Biden recalled being vice president during the pandemic, saying “Barack,” meaning former President Barack Obama, told him to go to Detroit and “help fix it.” But Biden was running for president during the pandemic, and Obama had been out of office for three years.

LIEden's Ministry of Truth needs a large staff.

LMAO:
The worse job in the world has to be a Biden staffer

You not only have to go out frequently to either correct and spin this president’s gaffes but you also have to make sure his shuffled gait is hidden from the press and stairs aren’t too high

Fishrrman:
Really, the gaffes no longer matter.

At this point, EVERYONE expects this from ol' white joe.
Everyone KNOWS that he has no official input to policy.
Everyone EXPECTS that -- when put out in front of an audience -- he will go off-track and start messin' up.

The white house staff probably has some fun figuring out how to "correct" his "mis-statements".

berdie:
I would think the job would be extremely stressful. The dread of knowing he is going to say something...and then how to clean it up.
