The White House is under scrutiny after altering the transcript of President Biden's remarks about Trump supporters, sparking backlash from federal stenographers. Biden’s statement, originally criticising "supporters" of Trump, was changed to target “supporter’s” comments, implying he was only criticising comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s remarks on Puerto Rico. The transcript released by the White House press office, however, rendered the quote with an apostrophe, reading “supporter’s” rather than “supporters,” which aides said pointed to Biden criticizing Hinchcliffe, not the millions of Americans who are supporting Trump for president. House Republicans are considering an investigation, citing concerns over transcript integrity and potential violation of the Presidential Records Act. Meanwhile, Vice President Harris distanced herself from Biden’s comments, advocating for political respect.
