Joe Biden was one fall away from needing a wheelchair and he reportedly forgot who actor George Clooney was, CNN propagandist Jake Tapper reveals in a new book delving into the cover-up of the former Democrat president’s mental decline.
Tapper previewed his book, “Original Sin,” on social media, giving bombshell spoilers confirming Democrats were well aware the ex-president’s cognitive faculties were quickly fading.
“One of the things we were shocked to learn, the White House physician Dr. Kevin O’ Connor talked about if Biden had one more fall he could actually need to be in a wheelchair,” Tapper said, noting the book cited over 200 interviews with “Democrat insiders.”
“But this was all put off til after the election. They did not want images of Biden in a wheelchair out there.”
Tapper’s book also discusses how the White House tried to cover up Biden’s “shuffling gait,” explaining staffers frequently accompanied him while walking to hide the “fact that his gait was as bad as it was.”
“The White House would say that this gait issue was because Biden had fallen after the election of 2020 – but the truth is it didn’t have to do with that. Dr. O’Connor’s medical report said that that injury was completely healed,” Tapper said.
Another revelation in the book claims Biden couldn’t recognize longtime friend and actor George Clooney at a fundraising event, according to X journalist Collin Rugg.
“‘You know George,’ an aide said to Biden, according to the book. ‘George Clooney,’ the aide said again. ‘Oh, yeah! Hi, George!’ Biden replied. The book says, ‘Clooney was shaken to his core. The president hadn’t recognized him, a man he had known for years.’ The fundraiser that Biden didn’t recognize Clooney was the same fundraiser where Obama was seen leading Biden off stage. I was accused at the time of spreading “fake news” for suggesting Obama was helping him off stage,” Rugg wrote in a post on X.
Appearing in an interview on his own network, Tapper promoting his book claimed he was just as shocked as everyone to learn of Biden’s mental deterioration, despite actively participating in the cover-up for years.
While Tapper claims he only learned of Biden’s decline from Democrat operatives after the election, a massive video compilation shows he repeatedly downplayed or outright denied concerns on CNN, going the extra mile to defend the ex-president’s mental acuity.
Jake Tapper wrote a book about the coverup of Biden's decline, as if he played no role in it at all. It's quite amazing.
