The Speaker of the House couldn’t make a speech due to a teleprompter breakdown. It’s not a minor thing. If it happened to the President it would be in the news for weeks.
This begs the question: can Mike Johnson function without someone telling him what to say? And who’s telling him what to say anyway? The oil industry? The Chinese? Obama?
Mike needs to answer voters’ questions about why he can’t function without someone feeding him the words. It’s either that or step down. More and more people are asking that recently.
Refinement to your claim: if it happened to President Biden, it would be in the news for weeks. If it happened to Trump as president or any other Republican for that matter, nothing. They could all fall into a trance of aphasic racist gibberish and the reporting would be on how big the crowd was.

I can not think of anything that means nothing more than this.
He’s there to read some words, the words disappeared, he was unable to read them. How in the world are you imagining this to be anything at all?
It shouldn’t be news if this happens to anyone, including the president. This is not news. This is a tech malfunction.
Fun fact: words said or not said by politicians in high office often have far-reaching consequences.
He was simply introducing the next speaker. What “far-reaching consequences” might this have?
I dunno, stuff? And junk like that? 🤷
Your original comment made it sound like words are inherently inconsequential, which couldn’t be further from the truth.
Gotcha. I am not sharing the same reality or maybe not discussing the same story as you. Understood.
