The guy can't do 'unscripted'. Instead, he walks off the stage before introducing Iowa AG Brenna Bird.

From Heather Cox Richardson's 7/16/2024 Letter from an American:
Yesterday, just after House speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) announced that delegates were formally nominating Trump as the Republican Party’s presidential candidate, the teleprompter failed. Unable to continue without it, Johnson quickly left the stage. This was awkward, since two weeks ago, Johnson said on the Fox News Channel of President Joe Biden: “Unless the president is reading off the teleprompter, I don’t think he capable of making these big decisions and that is something that should alarm all of us….”
The teleprompter having been fixed, Johnson returned forty-five minutes later to introduce Iowa’s attorney general, Brenna Bird, who in turn began the process of nominating Ohio senator J. D. Vance for vice president.
