CNN anchor Jake Tapper was widely ridiculed on social media after announcing the release of his book detailing the media’s coverup of Joe Biden’s cognitive decline, even though he was one of the main voices who’s perpetuated the coverup for years.
Tapper, host of CNN’s “State of the Union,” announced Wednesday that his upcoming book Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, And His Disastrous Choice To Run Again, draws “from interviews with more than 200 WH insiders, Dem leaders, and more” to investigate the media’s role in covering up his mental decline.

“Biden, his family, and his team let their self-interest and fear of another Trump term justify trying to put an at times addled old man in the Oval Office for four more years,” the Tapper and co-author Alex Thompson wrote. “What was the extent of it? Was it a cover-up? Was it a conspiracy? We will let the facts speak for themselves.”
The hypocrisy is off the charts with this move given Tapper was a central voice that repeatedly denied and dismissed any news reports about Biden’s obvious cognitive decline and painted anybody who thought otherwise as “conspiracy theorists.”
For example, here’s Tapper shutting down Lara Trump in 2020 for pointing out Biden’s numerous cognitive-related gaffes.
Seems like a good time to remind everyone that in 2020 Jake Tapper, first, accused me of making fun of people with a stutter (an atrocious accusation) and then attempted to shut me down and ended our interview when I tried to warn people of Joe Biden’s very obvious cognitive… pic.twitter.com/ZOxSGQP13J

Remember, this is the same Tapper who denied pushing the Russia collusion hoax — after pushing the Russia collusion hoax for years.
Remember when Jake Tapper spent two years spreading the Russian collusion hoax and then a couple years later denied he ever did? That was awesome. pic.twitter.com/Do8MpUEAKJ

Unfortunately for Tapper, most people have memories, so many users on social media absolutely eviscerated the Fake News kingpin in the comments over his hypocritical and shameless grift.
“The mother bleeping AUDACITY of you to do this after running 24-7 interference on behalf of him and mocking and attacking every single person who noticed Biden’s decline. The MOTHER. BUH-LEEP-ING. AUDACITY. Have you no decency? Have you NO shame?” Mollie Hemingway wrote.

Is it just 300 pages of you guys apologizing to the rest of us you labeled cheap fake artists or are you really trying this?

Shame on you. You call yourself a reporter? We were called conspiracy theorists and were told "Biden is sharp as a tack" – this is why you and MSM will never be taken seriously. You should have been questioning this every day and finding out who was running our country.

“The guy who was part of the coverup is now trying to profit from it,” another user noted.

Cannot hate the media enough
You cannot be a serious journalist publicly shaming others for pointing out Biden's mental decline….

Tapper is the poster child for the shameless and dishonest media trying to profit from the very lies they helped prop up.
Tapper’s propaganda literature is slated for release on May 20.
