President Joe Biden has been at the receiving end of criticism from his peers and opponents, the Republican party. The 46th President of the United States of America has also been on the receiving end of flak from the citizens who are not sure what to make of some of his antics. President Biden has been caught slurring words, forgetting lines in the midst of speeches, and being at a loss for words at times when he should have something to say.
The most recent critic of President Joe Biden is none other than the offensive tackle for the Green Bay Packers, David Bakhtiari. He took to Twitter to call out the President over an image that surfaced in which the President was seen carrying an itinerary of an event.
However, there was just one major issue with this image. While the brochure that the President appeared to be a basic itinerary which is normal and nothing to be concerned about, a closer look at the same reveals something much scarier.

David Bakhtiari described the President’s latest move as “one big play“
The brochure in the hands of President Joe Biden was more than just another itinerary. It was a detailed script that stated every single move that he was supposed to make at the event. While it laid down the sequence of events, it went on to elaborate in-depth on what the President had to do at each step. The list featured details such as “YOU enter the Roosevelt Room and say hello to participants, YOU take YOUR seat, YOU Give brief comment…”
It was a script, a detailed script that the President was required to follow. David Bakhtiari could not believe that this was real and had this to say, “Can we have authentic and real NON-SCRIPTED interviews?? I understand and agree with prepping someone (like studying for a test) but this is a bit too far. It’s just one big play.”
The offensive tackle does not see anything wrong with a bit of prepping before an interview, however, such preparation is usually done by the President’s secretary or the press secretary of the White House. Bakhtiari was taken aback by the detailed script which was handed over to POTUS as this meant that there was no room for authentic answers.
Some fans attempted to call out David Bakhtiari by asking him if he doesn’t know how prepping for interviews works.
The OT simply responded by asking the individual to reread his original tweet.
A user also called Bakhtiari out by suggesting that NFL post-game interviews are also scripted. David denied this allegation and made it clear as to how NFL interviews work.
David Bakhtiari wants the President to not completely pre-screen questions and prepare his answers in advance as it is not realistic and comes off as a completely scripted act, which does not seem to be that big of an ask for an individual of his caliber.
