The timeline of the alleged deterioration of the condition of former president Joe Biden was detailed by CNN reporter Jake Tapper, co-author of the news book called “Original Sin,” to analyst Stephen A. Smith.
In one of the recent episodes of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” Jake Tapper, co-author of the new book “Original Sin,” detailed the timeline of the alleged mental deterioration of former president Joe Biden that he exposed in the book.
“And what this reporting revealed was that there were there were like two Joe Bidens,” Tapper said. “There was the one that presented fine, that was okay in the 2020 debates, that was okay day in day out, generally speaking, seemed old, but seemed like, okay, maybe he could do the job. And then there was the non-functioning Joe Biden, the one that just lost his way, lost his train of thought, couldn’t come up with names of top aides, had difficulty with dates, like even just like years. When did this happen?”
“And that non-functioning Joe Biden, we found out through our reporting, showed up as far back as 2015 when he was vice president after the death of his son Beau,” Tapper went on. “What we found out through our reporting is that the non-functioning Joe Biden started really rearing his head much more behind the scenes in 2023, 2024, when there was this aggressive campaign to limit his hours of work, to have him have teleprompters even when he was behind the scenes doing a small 40 person 50 person fundraiser, keeping him away from the cabinet, keeping him away from top Democrats in Congress.”
“The degree to which there was an actual narrative there was an actual arc to his deterioration was fascinating and upsetting and the degree to which people saw bits and pieces of it. Nobody said anything or very few people said it.”
Joe Biden Investigation and Scrutiny Intensified by Republicans
Congressional Republicans have ramped up their investigations into the administration of former President Joe Biden, focusing on concerns surrounding his health and cognitive state during his tenure.
The scrutiny has intensified following his prostate cancer diagnosis and the release of a book detailing the extensive measures taken by the White House to accommodate the 82-year-old leader. Legislators are particularly questioning why Biden’s condition was not detected earlier and whether it was intentionally concealed from the public.
A proposed select committee, spearheaded by Representative Buddy Carter, seeks to uncover details about the administration’s handling of Biden’s health and decision-making processes. The investigation aims to analyze the roles played by key figures such as former First Lady Jill Biden, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and senior aides
As the inquiries expand, legislators are pressing for transparency regarding what officials knew about Joe Biden’s declining health and when they became aware of it.
