President Biden's reliance on his notes to give detailed answers at private fundraisers has left some donors worried about his viability, according to a new report.
Biden is prone to consulting notecards after calling on pre-selected donors who have questions at the closed-door events, Axios reported on Friday.
"Biden's reliance on notecards to help explain his own policy positions — on questions he knows are coming — is raising concerns among some donors about Biden's age," the article stated.
It's the latest media report about Biden on that front, despite recent White House bristling over such talk. The story added most recent presidents have had "cheat sheets" of sorts to refer to at public events and press conferences.
Biden's usual habit at lofty fundraisers is to make remarks with reporters in the room, who are then escorted out. The remaining donors can then ask a few questions that have already been vetted by Biden's staff. His staffers have said the notes are simply a way of making sure he's as prepared as possible for what's coming.
