Tapper promoted the book\u200d recently but has\u200d faced criticism for his\u2063 previous claims that downplayed concerns about Biden&#8217;s \u200cmental \u2063fitness, \u200dnotably during the 2020 \u200cpresidential campaign when he accused lara Trump of mocking Biden\u2019s stutter. The\u200c irony noted\u200d by Tapper and his co-author, Alex Thompson, highlights their earlier \u2062defenses of Biden, contrasted with their current\u200c stance in their book. Additionally,\u2063 they have been\u200c accused of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/comer-says-biden-impeachment-inquiry-will-lead-to-multiple-criminal-referrals\/\" title=\"Comer Claims Biden Impeachment Probe to Result in Numerous Criminal Referrals\">previously participating<\/a>\u2063 in the cover-up of Biden&#8217;s cognitive issues, with past articles attempting to explain or excuse his verbal \u200cgaffes as linked\u200b to his lifelong struggle with a\u2063 stutter. The book \u2064aims to shed \u200clight on thes contradictions, which Tapper himself recognizes as \u2064a\u2063 biting irony.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>CNN&rsquo;s Jake Tapper is publishing a book that chronicles President Joe Biden&rsquo;s cognitive decline and the scandalous &ldquo;cover-up&rdquo; after he spent years participating in said cover-up.<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Tapper <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/jaketapper\/status\/1894724349921202424\">promoted<\/a> the book on X with Axios reporter and CNN contributor Alex Thompson titled, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/B0DTYKCJC9?tag=randohouseinc47720-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Original Sin: President Biden&rsquo;s Decline, Its Cover-Up, And His Disastrous Choice To Run Again<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The irony is biting: In the name of defeating what they called an existential threat to democracy, Biden and his inner circle ensured it, tossing aside his implicit promise to serve for only one term, denying the existence of health issues the nation had been watching for years, dooming the Democrats to defeat,&rdquo; the Amazon description reads. &ldquo;The decision to run again, the Original Sin of this president, led to a campaign of denial and gaslighting, leading directly to Donald Trump&rsquo;s return to power and all that has happened as a consequence.
