Jake Tapper Pretends He Wasn't Part of Dem Cover Up of Biden's Bad Mental Health

On Tuesday, Jake Tapper said that the Biden White House and Democrats lied about Joe Biden's bad health until after the election.

Which is convenient for a CNN host who tussled with anyone who dared suggest Biden's health was declining...

Before the election.

This is rich.

Tapper said, “The bottom line is, the White House was lying, not only to the press, not only to the public, but they were lying to their own cabinet, they were lying to White House staffers, they were lying to Democratic members of Congress, to donors about how bad things have gotten.”

Axios reported Tuesday on Tapper and reporter Alex Thompson's new book 'Original Sin' which claims that the president's health had diminished so much that White House aides had considered putting him in a wheelchair.

Tapper continued, “In fact, Alex and I started writing this book after the election of 2024 and we spoke with more than 200 people, most of whom, most of all of whom were Democrats, and almost all of whom wouldn’t be honest with us or wouldn’t be candid with us until after the election and then after the election, and then after the election we found out all of these things that when you looked at what was going on with President Biden at the time, it probably doesn’t surprise you to the extent that he was deteriorating.”

It doesn't surprise anyone who actually watched Biden in recent times. He's not all there, and that's putting it mildly.

Jake Tapper could have seen it too. If he wanted to (hint: he didn't).

Tapper argued with anyone who would dare say Biden wasn't mentally fit, and was just as much a part of the Democratic propaganda effort to pretend otherwise as the Biden White House.

Here's a collection of Tapper doing this time and again.

Tapper even argued with Trump's daughter-in-law, Laura Trump, last year, after she said she saw cognitive decline in Biden.

Tapper pretending that he was not part of the cover-up of Biden's true mental state is as transparently foolish as him not noticing Biden's decline in the first place.

The whole world could see it. So could Tapper.

But this was not something he was willing to say until after the election.

Which was the entire point.

Jake Tapper now says the White House lied. One might say the same about Jake Tapper.
