President Trump falsely accused Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden of previewing questions before a press conference on Tuesday where the former vice president sharply rebuked Trumps mishandling of the coronavirus crisis.
In a tweets late Tuesday and early Wednesday, the President claimed Biden had been briefed on the questions ahead of the Delaware news conference and read the answers from a teleprompter.
The President has long complained about the medias coverage of him compared with his opponent. But two reporters who attended the event told The Daily Beast that the campaign had not pre-screened questions. When asked about the alleged pre-screening a Biden adviser called the accusation laughable, according to the news website.
During the press conference, the former vice president faced questions on a broad range of issues, including his stance on Trumps handling of an intelligence finding about a Russian bounty plot that potentially cost the lives of American and coalition troops in Afghanistan.

so he can read the answers from a teleprompter when the time comes. Good to know.
