Pompous Liar
What Jake Tapper's new book should have been titled.
Jake Tapper was apparently one of the only people who didn’t know [about Biden's metal decline]. With righteous indignation, he attacked Lara Trump for pointing out Biden’s decline, claiming Biden just had a stutter that hadn’t presented itself his entire public life and that she should be ashamed for making children who stutter feel bad. Tapper apparently only discovered Biden’s mental decline when Thompson brought him on to help sell the book. During the election, Tapper was a cog in the media machine covering up Biden’s decline.1

Remember after that infamous Trump/Biden debate in 2024 when all the pundits inexplicably flipped and acknowledged Biden’s obvious mental decline? All in unison. One moment Biden is sharp, oh, he’s really sharp, top of his game, don’t listen to all those bias conservatives!
Then literally minutes after the debate they all walked down the aisle and surrendered their lives to Kamala Harris. That these networks are all bought and paid for and essentially follow the same script is too obvious to ignore…well, unless you’re getting paid to ignore it or cover it up. Ask Jake Tapper about that.
It is a wonder of modern times that this affront to the public trust somehow remains an abiding mystery. But it shows just how fake Jake Tapper’s new book is — Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again. Jake blames the whole fiasco on “the White House” without ever stating who in that building was actually acting in “JB’s” place as shadow president. Tapper, allegedly a reporter, apparently never bothered to ask. But neither did anyone else at CNN, the other TV news networks, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, and every other outpost of OG journalism.
Nor does Jake conclude the obvious: that his entire profession sold out the country to act as the Democratic Party’s damage control agency — rather than its traditional duty to act as a powerful check on corrupt, runaway government. Which is to say that the news media Jake represents is at least as corrupt as the government itself.2
A central mystery is how the news media made itself the enemy of the people, and this conundrum is not at all explained by Jake Tapper and Alex Marshall in their book Original Sin. It’s actually just another hustle with overtones of hoax, like everything else in the evil cavalcade of narratives spun out in the news media’s war on reality. Tapper and Marshall want you to believe that a faceless collective they call “the White House” managed to conceal “Joe Biden’s” well-advanced disintegration from the voting public, and that was. . . that. The media wuz fooled! Goll-lee!3

Joe Biden’s Decline, Why I covered it up, Why I’m now pretending I didn’t.
Jake Tapper and The Usual Suspects
Back Cover
What the world saw at Joe Biden’s one and only 2024 debate was obvious years earlier to anyone with even the slightest cognitive abilities who watched him during his fake Presidential years. Biden, his family, his team, the Legacy Media, prominent Democrats and Hollywood elites all tried to cover up his mental decline until it became inconvenient and embarrassing for them to do so.
Why would journalists and others lie so willfully to hide what was so obvious?
You, no doubt, will be able to answer that question because you’re not a high paid useful idiot who works for CNN.
It was such a convoluted mishmash of information that came through the corporate media. You had to step back, out of the World to hope to piece together the craziness. Unbelievable!
First we watched in realtime the election results of 2020 and all of the shenanigans. Then no one listened.
We knew he was not the President. He did too, I hope. But as a career politician, sucked in by the glory, he played the game as best he could, having half a mind. I sometimes have felt compassion for him.
Pity. He was used.
Now I hope he knows that. I hope he's really pissed too.
