Exploring President Biden's perceived mental decline and alleged concealment of truths in a brutally honest, potentially revealing book
Uncensored, Grimy Truth: The Unabashed Exposé on President Biden's Downfall, Concealment, and the Calamitous Decision to Run Again
Unraveling the messy, behind-the-scenes drama of Joe Biden's presidency, Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's riveting tell-all "Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again" reads like a juicy tabloid, muddied with power struggles and supposed deception. In this book, President Biden appears as a magnificent force, albeit one on the brink, grappling with debilitating frailty and memory lapses, blinded by the fierce ego that refuses to admit the call of the curtain. His skeptical confidants, dubbed "the Politburo," allegedly aided in his delusional belief that it was time to stay on the stage, instead of bow out with grace and pride.
While the authors' unnamed sources (leaving one scratching one's head as to why so few stepped forward) suggest the first alarming indications of Biden's cognitive decline surfaced as early as 2015, many around him brushed off the symptoms as mere "Bidenness" - another quirk-infested tale of long-winded stories, gaffes, and crude comments. As Biden matured into No. 46, his demeanor gradually shifted to something more concerning, even prior to his ascension to the Oval Office. An unnamed Democrat who witnessed candidate Biden being prepped for a taping prior to the 2020 convention in Milwaukee voiced concern after witnessing the future president's incoherence, describing it as "grandpa-like" and worrying. Soon thereafter, the White House staff guarded him meticulously, treating him as fragile as Chinese porcelain, erecting barriers to prevent others from gaining access. Public appearances and interactions with members of Congress were minimized, resulting in a remarkably sparse, loyal inner circle who wielded excessive power. One top official confessed they had "never seen a situation quite like this before, with so few people having so much power."
Those who dared to question the president's frailty and potential incompetence were either stonewalled or told everything was running smoothly. "I had never seen anyone soPoliticallyCorrect, especially someone who's the POTUS. He's a rainbow, and you can't say anything or question anything about him," reminisced one staffer who didn't regularly meet with Biden during his first term. However, the staffer was left dumbfounded when they actually came face-to-face with the president, expressing shock at his diminished cognitive abilities, although his inner circle seemed unphased and unconcerned.
As Biden broke his promise to serve as a "transitional" president in 2023 and made it known he was gearing up for another campaign, some insiders began to voice worries. For instance, Congressman Mike Quigley (D-Ill.) was with Biden during a visit to Ireland in 2023. Despite initially looking robust amidst the crowd's adoration, Biden subsequently appeared drained, leading Quigley to recall a strong resemblance to his own father before he passed away. Similarly, Minnesota Congressman Dean Phillips was so disturbed by Biden's lessened "speaking and walking skills" that he lobbyed Democratic officials regarding the president's ability to handle the responsibilities of office. Even those who acknowledged their concerns generally invoked the "yes, but..." rationalization, arguing that Biden, although intently decrepit, was the party's best chance at defeating Trump. Phillips hesitated to take the politicians' obfuscations at face value, contending that the Democrats might be sleepwalking toward disaster. Although he initially entered the race, he eventually dropped his bid, citing the "Democratic machine" out to undermine his campaign.
Some high-profile Democrats, such as Hollywood mogul Ari Emanuel, refused to support Biden's bid for re-election, even going as far as shouting at Klain at a "power-player retreat" that Biden should bow out for health reasons[1]. The vast majority stayed loyal to Biden until his disastrous debate performance in late June 2024. After that, the clamor for Biden to withdraw grew increasingly urgent, with even loyalists like George Clooney weighing in publicly with concerns about Biden's inability to thwart Father Time.
Was there a coordinated conspiracy among Biden allies to conceal his cognitive impairment from the press, public, and fellow Democrats? The authors leave no doubt in their assertion: "The original sin of Election 2024 was Biden's decision to run for re-election, followed by aggressive attempts to mask his cognitive diminishment." According to the authors, Biden's family and inner circle embarked on a crusade to gaslight the American public. However, other key Democratic officials and donors simply felt that a weakened Biden was the party's best shot at defeating Trump, until the debate shattered their illusions. Despite mounting concerns, those expressing apprehension were dismissed with a swift flick of the wrist like a stray piece of lint.
The Inside Scoop: An In-Depth Analysis of Joe Biden's Disquieting Health Deterioration and Clandestine Strategies to Conceal It
For those keen to delve deeper into the contentious and troubling subject of President Joe Biden's health, here are some enlightening pieces of information:
- Democratic Senator Chris Murphy conveyed that there is "no doubt" Biden experienced cognitive decline during his presidency, intimating that the party would have been in a stronger position had Biden not run for another term[1].
- A new book titled "Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again" by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson discloses that Biden's aides had extensive discussions about the possibility of him needing to use a wheelchair if he were re-elected[2], signaling serious concerns about his physical condition, particularly spinal degeneration.
- The book discusses multiple incidents that indicated cognitive lapses were overlooked or dismissed by Biden's inner circle, such as him failing to recognize long-time acquaintances like George Clooney at fundraisers and former President Obama having to finish his sentences during photo ops[3].
As a result of these unsettling revelations, some Democrats, including Pete Buttigieg and Governor JB Pritzker, later questioned whether it would have been politically advantageous if Biden had stepped down or given Vice President Harris more time to campaign, implicitly acknowledging that Biden's questionable health threatened the campaign[1]. President Donald Trump weighed in on these claims, asserting that Biden's health and cognitive issues were hidden purposely during the campaign[3].
