Jake Tapper’s New Book Describes Former First Lady Jill Biden as ‘One of the Chief Deniers’ of Joe’s ‘Deterioration’
CNN’s Jake Tapper was a harsh critic of anyone who dared to raise the topic of Joe Biden’s cognitive decline. But now that he can profit from the cover-up he and his fellow “journalists” participated in, Tapper is hard at work trying to profit off the deception.
Tapper’s new book, written with Axios political correspondent Alex Thompson, Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again, was released in May.
According to the book, within Joe Biden’s inner circle, Jill Biden (referred to by staff as Dr. B) was one of the ‘chief deniers’ of Joe’s obvious mental decline and pushed hard for him to run for reelection.
According to the book, Jill “weighed in on potential hires and reviewed many of the campaign ads before they were aired. She campaigned hard and peppered aides with questions about how many reporters would be at her events,” Tapper and Thompson said.
The book reveals that Jill even sat in job interviews for White House aids and “kept score” of who was loyal.
The White House began referring to Jill Biden’s “spousal programming” events on foreign trips, and her team would request talking points, which Tapper and Thompson said some national security officials found strange.
Dr. B was particularly sensitive when asked about Biden’s age and ability, according to the authors.
After Biden’s consequential debate performance in the summer of 2024, The Associated Press reported that Jill and Hunter Biden were urging the president to continue his re-election campaign. Sources told AP the family “questioned how he was prepared for the debate by staff and wondered if they could have done something better.”
Following the disastrous debate, the authors say Jill “fumed with resentment” about the Democrats she considered friends who began pushing Joe out.
