WATCH: Biden Commits ANOTHER Brutal Teleprompter Gaffe: ‘Guy Named Riley Last Name’
President Joe Biden once again stumbled over his teleprompter, this time while referencing a former theology professor. On Wednesday, Biden was recounting his earlier days at a Catholic school when he tripped over a peculiar phrase.
“My theology professor at the Catholic school I went to was a guy named Riley Last Name,” Biden said, appearing to read the words “last name” aloud instead of providing the individual’s actual surname.
The gaffe drew immediate reactions online, with many seeing it as another in a series of missteps that have become emblematic of Biden’s speaking style. This isn’t the first time Biden’s teleprompter troubles have sparked conversation either. Past speeches have included similar verbal fumbles, offering plenty of content for political opponents and comedy shows.

Biden has had several notable instances of teleprompter miscues that have been widely criticized. During his 2020 presidential campaign, Biden made several noticeable verbal slip-ups, often attributed to him misreading his teleprompter or delivering unscripted remarks. In July 2021, Biden mistakenly read “end of quote” from his teleprompter during a speech at the White House, which critics seized upon to question his grasp of prepared material.
In a speech on abortion in July 2022, he read stage directions from his script, saying, “Repeat the line,” after which he repeated the line verbatim, providing fodder for political opponents and late-night comedy. At the 2021 G7 Summit, Biden appeared to misread or lose track of a point, saying, “I’m going to get in trouble with staff,” which gave the impression that he was struggling to follow prepared remarks.

If I were to guess, he was saying Riley was the guys last name. Professors don’t usually go by their first names. “Professor Riley”.
Normally I love theses gaffes, but this seems like nothin? What do you think…
