Shortly after Joe Biden called Sen. Kamala Harris about tapping her as his running mate, the gaffe-prone former veep was mocked for using a script during his virtual chat, according to reports.

“I have the great honor to announce that I’ve picked @KamalaHarris — a fearless fighter for the little guy, and one of the country’s finest public servants — as my running mate,” Biden wrote on Instagram.

A photo posted on his account shows the 77-year-old speaking on a laptop with the beaming California senator as he holds up his iPhone with its speaker facing the computer, suggesting someone else was on their call, the Daily Mail reported.

But it was a sheet of paper seen under the phone that caught people’s attention.

“Biden’s staff had to write a script for him so he’d know why he was even talking to Kamala Harris. ‘I’m calling you today because…,’” wrote Sean Davis, co-founder of conservative online mag The Federalist.

Someone also said that maybe he recorded it ahead of time and it was playing back on the phone and he was just mouthing it. I dunno it was a bit weird that he had her on the laptop, was holding his phone with the speaker closest to the laptop, and had a sheet of paper on it. I can’t zoom enough to see what it is though.

Meticulous people try hard to do well. Sometimes they use notes.

More news from a tabloid. I can't believe anyone reads this garbage.

I couldn't tell if he was reading from a prompter or not on TV yesterday. Probably was but he was able to do it without sounding like a 4th grade remedial reading student. More importantly the content was positive and hopeful. Nice to hear again.

Maybe if Trump did that he wouldn’t be calling people by the wrong name all the time. Or screwing up world geography.

:roll: I use notes/scripts for certain phone calls at work. Especially when I have specific things I need to remember to say. My boss practices her signature a few times before signing certificates. What an absurd thing to mock someone over, the right is so ridiculous and desperate.

This article is petty as hell. I don’t care if he was reading from a script. Trump should be doing the same and letting someone manage his Twitter.
