It’s also a very poor production crew too. I assume they are not hiring professionals in order to avoid leaks. The campaign staff are learning as they go and making amateur mistakes.

There are reasons they don’t have these issues with the news and they most certainly have teleprompters.

At some point, people are going to not read their prepared questions and that is going to be funny.

Wait, if it's amateur hour over there, does this mean it's entirely possible the teleprompter can be hacked? Hmmm

Pedes need to infiltrate his campaign.

It would be so fucking hilarious. We could make Biden say that the Democrats are the party of voter fraud

I'm familiar with that world and it would shock you how easy this would be.

How would you get Joe to read? He can’t read the teleprompter.

Well, the more advanced systems do use network protocols to post or simply upload.

The reason these platforms are insulated from bad design is they are temporarily in place scaffolding. These things go up relatively quickly and it’s not likely to suffer much in penetration attempts.

During the last Bush re-election campaign they ordered a wireless 30mb pipe literally a day or two before they showed up onsite. They paid quite a penny and my friend did an emergency drop on site. They pulled something like 30k for a few days work.

Given how they are manually driving the teleprompter as he speaks it is probably just laptop output to the prompter with some quickly cobbled together talk. This is why they take or hand out questions and call them in order. Biden has a little sheet and no remote capability.

Need to get Bruce Almighty involved in Biden's next "event"

To be fair, it's the first time we have an election during a nationwide "lockdown" so it's new for everybody to run a candidate from their basements.

But Donald Trump is handling this situation much better than everyone else.

Trump just speaks off the cuff.

Mostly you just need a camera, a network drop and people to manage the people.

You don’t need a crew answer questions, preparing the response and managing the useful idiots.

A large proportion of his campaign money is being spent on lawyers. They plan to steal the election, he's just a place holder.

I feel like if you're a Trump staffer, you need to be on your toes at all times and strive to be the best with a winning attitude. Biden feels like they hired a bunch of college interns who are mid level of their class at best. Its a joke.

Maybe there is a pede waiting to take control of the teleprompter.
