Same. And whatever they were doing was working well.

+100. No regrets. Felt no anxiety the four years he was president. He had competent people in charge at all levels of the government and that’s most of the work right there.

When Biden was elected, he was the person we needed in that moment. His experience, ability to work across the aisle, vast knowledge of how the world functions, etc. make him the right person. I have ZERO regrets about voting for him in 2020. But have you all forgotten how important it was to us that he choose a top-notch VP and cabinet? This is because we expected him to deteriorate during those four years, as anyone would at that age. We knew the people surrounding him would be crucial. The fact that he was allegedly “severely impaired” but his administration was accomplishing A LOT right up until the last day is proof that this worked the way we expected.

What we didn’t account for is that his deterioration would keep him from realizing that he needed to keep his promise of being a one-term president. That is where it went wrong. It put the people who have always liked and respected him in a terrible position of having to either turn on him or downplay his deterioration. Nobody could stop him from running. It was still between him and Trump. And while I acknowledge Biden’s decreased mental capacity, it is NOWHERE NEAR AS BAD AS TRUMP’S! Make no mistake about that. So democrats were in this position where being honest about that would have given us Trump for sure, which obviously is much worse than an aging Biden.

And so, the last minute Hail Mary was to put Kamala in. With less than 100 days to campaign and many people vowing not to vote for her simply because she didn’t primary and was thrown in (which was not in her control), she only lost by 1%. If she had a complete campaign, she would have blown him out of the water. This is not even factoring in the obvious election interference.

And now we have Trump, who will be even older at the end of his term and has definitely NOT surrounded himself with the most qualified VP and cabinet. He has intentionally done the opposite. And that is the difference.

Agree with most of this except Kamala blowing Trump out of the water if she had a complete campaign. I want to believe that but I don’t.

Also, I don't think this is a good topic for Trump supporters. Trump is looking older and loopier at the start of his term than Biden did at the end!

Those folks should not be in politics. They should answer for what they did.

(Note that I do not support the Trump administration AT ALL, and also want Trump's people to answer for their own awful leadership. See how I can hold two things in my head at once?)

Sure we’re super impressed with you.

But Biden is no threat to anyone right now and Trump is trying his best to impoverish the middle class, so while you’re really busy multitasking the rest of us will be focusing on the problem.

Get over it. There are much bigger issues to focus on right now.

Surely, you can't be so stupid and addled by partisanship that you don't see how Democrats' decision to go down lying gave us the situation you're complaining about now.

New poster here. I'm not sure people were lying. Maybe they were. But I also think that different people can perceive one person very differently. Part of it is how long they've known someone. Part of it is how close they are to the complex decision making. Older people slow down. Reagan had Alzheimer's in office and everyone hid it. Not saying it's right. Just saying it's fairly typical.

I never thought Biden should have run for a second term. I also think that what propelled Trump to the White House is much bigger than Joe Biden's cognitive condition. But without some concrete medical diagnoses, I will take personal opinions in books with a grain of salt.

He was always that guy…comments from multi platforms.

Remember how you got famous for dating Monica Lewinsky then writing about her?

You’re a traitor Tapper, we’re done hoss…

GTH, Jake.
And shame on you!

Enjoy that healthy advance! Hope you have a fantastic time on book tour, it’s a slow news year, nothing to cover these days anyway.

You are a hack.

Keep writing books because you stopped being a journalist years ago.

Hard pass! Shame on you.

Absolutely sickening. Shame on you.

You make me sick.

☠️ to me. How ungrateful?

Your fans are all MAGA now. May you have the career you deserve.

Tapper will go down in history as a purveyor of fake news and a traitor to America.

What an a$$ you are. Now do Trump, Elon & the American Nazi Heritage foundation and the compliance of mainstream media to their fascist actions.

Not surprised, profiting off of the moment. Bye CNN.

Go get speech therapy instead of peddling this drivel.

Jake Tapper is leaving journalism to work for CNN.

CNN turned on the American People! Lost respect for Tapper, Bash, Cooper, they all helped elect traitor Trump by failing to be true journalists!

CNN is now Yellow Journalism.

Wish Biden was president. Things would be so much better!

The Biden aides weren't trying to protect us; they were trying to protect themselves. Biden's job from Day 1 was to develop a bench of Democratic leaders so we would have had someone solid to run in 2024. Instead, the Biden admin just wanted to retain power.

I'd would much, much rather have senile Biden over senile Trump. But it's folly to pretend that the Biden admin did Dems any favors.

So, what do we make of the fact that the Democrats flagrantly lied for over a year about Biden's mental degeneration, even going as far as to claiming it was Russian disinformation?

At this point, I think we can safely say that it is true that an unelected cabal took over Biden's presidency because he was not able to govern.

How do we square this kind of power-hungry betrayal of voters and America with the claim that Democrats are defending democracy?

“Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History” by Chris

Revelations:

Vice President Kamala Harris' aides were so concerned about the president's health that they "strategized around the possibility that Biden might die in office." The authors report that Jamal Simmons, the vice president's communications director, drew up a “death-pool roster” of federal judges who could swear in Harris as president if Biden died.

Ron Klain, a longtime aide to Biden and his former White House chief of staff, helped the president prepare for his fateful debate with Trump last year. Klain told Whipple that Biden “didn’t know what Trump had been saying and couldn’t grasp what the back and forth was.”

Klain also described how Biden “didn’t really understand what his argument was on inflation” and “had nothing to say about a second term other than finish the job.”

Klain viewed Biden, then 81, as “out of it” and even “half-seriously” worried that Biden thought he was “president of NATO.”

Anyone still shocked how most of America doesn’t trust the Democrat Party?

They lied, and lied, and lied.
The entire world watched in horror.

What do you mean the Democrat Party? All of these authors were lying about it at the time, and are now trying to cash in when it is safe to do so.

And now we have a 78-going-on-79 yr old in office who is the OLDEST person to be inaugurated as president, who is ALSO clearly experiencing cognitive decline (on top of being severely personality-disordered), and who is doing demonstrably much WORSE as president than Biden ever did.

We need to stop nominating and electing almost 80-yr-old men with one foot in the grave.

Trumpers cannot continue to harp on this topic because it will be thrown right back in their faces.

After the election his mental decline went from bad to worse. His team, who were the ones pulling the strings, selected Kamala as an insurance policy. They knew with her waiting in the wings, there would be a lot of hesitation to remove Biden from office.

The debate went off the rails because the ruse was up. The prepped him as best they could and crossed their fingers. You can blame Ron Klain. Jill Biden, and others for the 2024 election. They enjoyed the power of the presidency and wanted to hold on - even if it meant running a clearly feeble old man.

Biden quickly endorsing Kamala was Team Biden's FU to the democratic elite. The ones his loyalists saw as pushing Biden out of running. Biden himself couldn't fully endorse anyone or anything. But his team stuck them with a terrible candidate that represented everything wrong with a terrible four-year stretch.

Liar. He was not cognitively impaired from day one. He won all the debates against Trump except for the last, disastrous one. My DH was once at a small group meeting with Biden earlier in his term where Biden talked without notes or a teleprompter for over 40 minutes. DH said he went on too long, but he knew his policy stuff and was completely coherent. So F right off with your nonsense.

All that you have left are profane insults when the truth hits too close to home. My grandma can ramble coherently about basketball for 40 minutes. I don't think that qualifies her to coach the Lakers. Your DH obviously has low standards for the company he keeps.

People like you are why this country is where it is. Zero morals and principles. No ability to recognize wrong or admit its impact when it's your side doing it.

If you are a Trump voter this is an insane take right now.

Yes, we can learn from this. But since Trump would rather crash our economy, and Americans are generally too stupid to focus on more than one thing, let’s focus on the one that matters.

Why does MAGA always shift focus away from economic issues? You all randomly obsess over the debt, but avoid posts about the GOP Congress’s proposal to increase it by 5T.

You avoid posts about tarriffs, believing that companies that just lost 6T in market cap are going to invest in America based on a policy that may change next week (since Trump is already open to negotiations).

You deflect from major security concerns, twisting yourself in a pretzel to justify it even those involved admitted it was a mistake.

And whenever these issues are flagged, you want to talk about trans people or Biden’s health.

Right, what we should do is deflect blame from the Democrats who betrayed their base and handed the presidency to Trump. This way, next time around, they can continue throwing elections and furthering the country's slide into everything you claim not to want. Smart.

There is a lot of money to be made off these campaigns, and it works great if the candidate doesn't know what's happening. How much money do you think they got from the ten million spent on those special elections in Florida?

History says otherwise. Care to explain the massive drop in illegal immigration that allegedly couldn't be done without legislation?

In any state of cognitive powers (which is totally Trumper bunk), Biden always upheld the Constitution and didn't act like the other 2 branches of government didn't exist.

No threats posted online to judges you disagree with. And Biden never acted like he was a Russian agent. Never confused who our ALLIES were.

In any age he was better than Trump, the dictator
